Re: ACC REBAR CUTTER , redux

well well well. http://www.rainierarms.com/?page=shop/detail&product_id=3432 The set screw is a deal breaker for me. I would be VERY tempted by this if it used the normal mount instead of that screw. :-( C'mon AAC -- give us an existing internal mount with just enough external shrouding to get ...

Re: Prodigy - problems opening it up to clean.

Yes - it is one of the original Prodigy models, and no, it has never been back for any updates. As for the QD mount, the question I was asking... if i get a newer core that no longer has the QD threading, will I have any problems using it with a QD threaded barrel or barrel adapter? It looks like it...

Prodigy - problems opening it up to clean.

I pulled my prodigy out of the safe, and when I went to clean it out, I found that it wouldn't unscrew. A little searching brought up some tools to open it with, ( http://www.silencershop.com/shop/aac-prodigy-disassembly-tool ) ... but it shows 8 splines, and mine has twenty-some...?? Is that pic ba...

That sounds a bit like you're hearing a sonic crack.

I've tried at least two of the types of ammo you list - Speer Lawman and CCI Blazer(aluminum) and know that they ran properly in my G19 w/ Lone Wolf +can.

Yes, it rings, but not in any way that would make the suppressor less useful or the rifle any more loud without the suppressor attached.

an open area usually isn't so bad, but any kind of overhead cover or side walls almost always means hearing protection, suppressor or not.

Your mileage may vary, but there are worse things than shooting a suppressed weapon with foamies in and enjoying the silence.

Note that the SPR/M4 extends about half an inch behind the rear face of the QD mount. (at least it does on mine). You need to factor that in to the min barrel length.

One of the gemtec cans is a clone of the evo but with lower quality components. If you are only going to run it with the Glock, and not beat it hard, that one might be a good choice to save a few dollars.

I can say from experience that an Evo and G19 w/ Lone Wolf Dist. barrel is a sweet combo.
