I don't think you could ever port it enough to get it subsonic. Think about it this way....How short would an unported barrel have to be to keep it subsonic? I would guess even a 3-4" barrel would be supersonic with a factory 2300 FPS load. There's a guy online with a 4-1/2" barrel claimi...

Im a pipe welder and an AWS Certified Welding Inspector. I doubt it was the shielding gas. Sounds like a penetration issue to me... TIG is your best bet on a weld like this. If your stuck with MIG, I would make your end cap stick out .125" so you can weld a little hotter w/o blow through. This ...

Scratch that idea... I guess I will just use the suppressed sten I'm building...

And load subsonic ammo for the pistol build...


Anyone know what type of baffles and where work best on a sten?

Before you tell me how crazy this is, hear me out... Let's say I have a bunch of ak's already... And wanted to build a suppressed ak pistol just for fun with a 8 or 10" ported barrel... I would have to have several 1/8" ports close to the barrel, and an integral type suppressor tube. I wou...

I wish I could find 1-7/8 od or 1-3/8 od plugs in SS, I found em in zink coated mild steel, but no SS...

Im thinking it will look like this:



any Ideas on what baffles work best on the STEN and the spacing?

They are excellent hosts, however VERY VERY picky with the type of suppressor baffle, wrong kind and they are still good but not as good as they could be.

What type works best? Any more info on the sten as a host?

I was thinking about just running 147gr but I will mostly be shooting WWB 115gr Wally world special. I'm really more concerned with noise then I am with knock down power. I was planing on using M baffles, what works best with the sten? How many? And Where? It will be a ported 8" barrel with a b...

[*]Im thinking my next suppressor will be a Integeral STEN MK III... I was going to build a sterling, but Im thinking it would be easier to build a Semi-Sten w/ vertical mag, and make the tube a little longer, add some baffles, port the barrel one hole at a time until a 115gr 9mm FMJ is subsonic. Th...

I live in Wa for now... It is legal to own but not use a suppressor... And SBS are not an option!

That is why it must be shot without a suppressor and no SBS...

Thanks for the pic! I dont belive in springs for a rifle can! That is for sure!!!! After watching the son of guns show, Maybe its just the editing, but it sure seems like from Idea to product there is very little R&D that goes into a red jacket project, but like I said, Maybe its just the editin...

Here is an Idea Ive been kicking around in my head for about... 3 years now and Im going to pick up my saiga 12 today from my FFL... Here is my criteria for Project quiet 12: -Able to shoot suppressed then be able to remove and shoot Unsuppressed -Able to remove to clean -Total length of barrel with...

anyone know what the inside of a Red Jacket 12ga suppressor looks like? Im trying to design a Form 1 can, and am having trouble finding any pics of baffles... I would assume it is just a ported barrel extension, with baffels. I would like to know how many, and any info about the porting... Thanks-

I would supply a MKII then you won't have the chamber indicator and worse the magazine disconnect.

I dont have a MKII or MKIII So.... Ill need to have them supply one...

kathy shot me back a quote for $725 for a customer supplied MKIII... So thats putting me at about $1100+ Not far from the YHM! YHM vs EI SS - Both User Cleanable - Both Price - Same DB reduction - YHM ?? - EI 38db Im sure they would both be good pistols, When Tax time comes around... I guess I will ...

Maj quoted me at $1050ish 6months ago for the YHM, how much is the Elite Iron??? Looks like they both come apart. And are both in stainless!... I may have to get one and get it sandblasted with Copper slag! to look like this! This may be the Sexist pistol EVER: http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb1...

Has anyone shot this yet? how does it sound??? or well um... how dosent it sound??? I was going to buy this Illegally as I call it or = as my wife calls it without her permission... when we came to an agreement on things, If I wait till tax season, I my buy one... With permission!!!! so Im going to ...

what software are you using for your drawings??? thanks

David Hineline, Im glad you enjoy your suppressor, I understand you must justify your very expensive purchese. I dont know why you would assume I will be buying/ building this from the home depot. I have seen at least 40-50 thread on can's internals, I have only seen 2-3 Integral baffle/core setups....

Soda cans seem kinda thin, and I bet they would blow out easy, and tear when you try to stamp.

So I've done alot of looking a searching around without much answers... Im looking into building or buying a MKIII Integeral. It seems to me that they are all soo long!!! I just want one that is around 10"-13" overall length, from the muzzle to the rear of the bolt handle in stainless that...

I downloaded SW 2010 after reading the 1st few posts...

I now have it down enough to draw basic cans, and do simple drawings in 3D.

This is with NO training, just figureing it out...

Ive checked 4 local stores, and spent hours online trying to find 1.875 or 1 7/8 freeze plugs in SS. I have found 1 3/8 but no dice on the 1 7/8...

I can get them in mild steel/Zink but Nothing in Stainless....

any Ideas???

If a Picture is worth a thousand words, a video is worth a million!!!

You should post a video!!!


Is it a single baffle design?
