Re: Is there a thread locker that would be good for silencer

You can use teflon tape on the threads, just be careful not to get it so hot it burns. I presume that your cyclone is on a bolt action or something that you dont do magdumps through, so it's an option.

Re: Does anyone make a reflex-style thread mounted can for .

I don't think anyone makes one that doesn't require a special muzzle device.

Best deal for plain threaded is probably a Ranger 2 or a YHM Stainless Phantom. Call up Major-Malfunction and tell him what you're looking for, he'll probably sort it out much better than I have.

Re: Silencer for Dragon Slayer .50

You cannot import one at all. You can build one if you fill out an ATF Form 1. As for the actual building, I have no idea what sort of baffles work well with air guns, but there's a poster from the UK here who has video reviews of several models as well as baffle pics, so you can try to mimic them.

Re: Gemtech G5 5.56?

G5 is just as good as any other SWR/AAC/ etc brand and nobody is going to notice the difference. I think your dealer is just partial to other brands is all. Theres nothing 2nd tier about anything gemtech makes. I would seek other sources for more opinions on gemtech products. Don't rely on just one...

You could go with very thin stainless steel (and if you wanted to be daring you could do M baffles instead of k's, but that's not what you asked). Really, aluminum is your best bet for the purposes you state, but problems may pop up for maintenance/longevity.

The only lugged suppressor that I know of in rimfire is made by Griffen Armament. Keep in mind that it isn't a true three lug (meaning the sort the MP5 uses), so you aren't really getting the "MP5 experience" if that's what you're looking for. Other manufacturers with more of a track reco...

There are too many good suggestions to name, based on what you're looking for exactly. If you want a small can, go for the AAC Element. For a durable can that can handle some other calibers, go Spectre. If you want a somewhat larger can with extra volume that will look better with the profile of the...

They're run by a bit of a megalomaniac, but I can't speak the the quality of their cans. I'm sure they're serviceable, just make sure they don't inscribe offensive slogans on them anymore.
