I'm in need of a Silencerco MAAD Trifecta 1/2x28 5.56 muzzle device. I have an older Saker with the MAAD mount and a couple of rifles set up for it. I have another rifle that I'd to use with the Saker. Silencerco discontinued the MAAD mount and I'm having a heck of a time finding a muzzle device. I ...

There won't be enough ballistic loss to make much of a difference. 18" vs 16" ain't squat. What are you going to shoot through it? Standard ammo? Subsonic hand loads? I'm liking this project. A suppressed thuddy-thuddy lever gun is pretty cool. I don't currently reload so it will likely b...

I've been trying to find a deal on a .30-30 lever action with a short mag tube for a couple of years. I wanted one to suppress but I didn't want to mess with shortening the mag tube. I finally snagged one yesterday, a Marlin 30TK. It was a version of their Texas carbine made for Kmart in 1989-1990. ...

That is pretty amazing. I'd love to see some pictures of the insides! Pull the adapter and end cap and post them up :) They posted this one of the blast baffle on their Facebook page: https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfa1/v/t1.0-9/12928273_1690460484526041_8376586817396988965_n.jpg?oh=8...

Being a .380 locked breech it should be pretty quiet suppressed but I'd think it would require a pretty light suppressor to not be awkward to hold as small as the 42 is.

Photoman, I love the old Western knife in your photos. They don't make'em like that " no mo ". It's a cool one for sure. Someone posted a photo of one on another forum and I had to track an example down for myself. http://i1274.photobucket.com/albums/y433/photoman12001/Firearms/Ruger/Ruge...

I can't speak to the Encore but I have a pair of Contenders (rifle and pistol) that make awesome suppressor hosts. The pistol is especially fun and on some days I can shoot it better than the rifle; its trigger is exceptional. I have toyed with the idea of registering one of the frames as an SBR. Ri...

I was really hoping you were going to say that's your Barrett with the QDL suppressor because I was going to ask what you thought of it. I'm a month into my check being cashed for my QDL for my M99 and there isn't a lot of information out there about them. Done. Went with the Saker. It just felt ri...

Done. Went with the Saker. It just felt right. Now the wait... I'll say that one of the things that sold me on the Saker was attach/detaching it from the rifle. I preferred that to the ASR which I had messed with before. I don't know if one is really better than the other but I preferred the MADD in...

They stated they thought it was possible for the manufacturer to destroy a suppressor and replace it with a unit having the same serial number for a warranty issue. That would alleviate a lot of my concern about the Omega's construction. Can anyone verify whether this is true or false? No, they can...

I found another local dealer with cans in stock. They claimed to be the largest SilencerCo SPEQ dealer in the country and have SPEQ Omegas ready to sell. They said they could easily get a Saker serial number to start the process. I got to compare the Omega and Saker side-by-side with QD mounts insta...

I actually got to handle them side-by-side yesterday. It didn't help me at all and really left me more conflicted. The Saker had the QD mount installed while the Omega had direct thread and the Saker was hefty. I'm still waiting for the LEO/military discount units to arrive though. Hopefully the sho...

...I don't shoot centerfire rifle enough to justify two... Well that changes things a little...given this I'd lean a little more toward the Omega. With durability listed as your top priority it sounded like you shoot a lot. Either way, both great cans, can't really go wrong I'll probably shoot them...

Awesome photography, that's a much-needed welcome addition to the forum. Can't have too much gun pron. I voted for the Saker because you only want one can and it is certainly the more durable of the two. Will it matter? Probably not but it sounds like that's really the can you're leaning towards be...

The pending changes coming to NFA purchases through trusts have lit a fire under me to finally make the 7.62 suppressor purchase I've been putting off for a few years. I am buying through Silencerco's military discount program but I am torn between the Saker and Omega as I have been for about a year...

My wife and I got out today to shoot some rifles. We shot my newly-threaded Ruger K77/22-VBZ and PWS T3 Summit rifles. We shot the Ruger suppressed with both super and sub sonic ammo to show the difference it can make. A supersonic, suppressed .22LR bullet actually sounds really cool in person. Clic...

I was thinking the same thing. I love the look and feel but I have trouble justifying a .22LR I can't mount a suppressor on and it seems it would not be easy with this one.

That Brimstone trigger makes quite the difference in shooting; it's great. The rifle had no malfunctions and great accuracy. Even my wife enjoyed shooting it so it's definitely a keeper. http://i1274.photobucket.com/albums/y433/photoman12001/Firearms/Shooting%20Range/_DSC3045EditLayers1024Pixel8_zps...

I ran into a good deal on a Ruger 10/22-T a while ago. It's the only 10/22 I own and I wanted to turn it into a simple yet elegant (in my eyes anyway) suppressor host. Today I received and installed the last of the parts I wanted for it and I'm very happy with the outcome. The rifle started as this ...

I just got my VBZ (.22LR) back today from having the barrel shortened and threaded to match my VMBZ (.22WMR). I'm very excited to shoot the VBZ. The VMBZ has been cool but the VBZ will be much quieter. I've tried to make them as close to identical as possible: Both barrels have been shortened from 2...

I got a few questions at Rimfire Central and thought it would be good to add my response here as well: Sorry but I don't have any sound measuring equipment. You don't hear much of a difference between the SS Sparrow and Spectre II because honestly there just isn't much of a difference. While not per...

I did ruffle some feathers when I posted this photo on Rimfire Central. It's a 1968 Browning Medalist. These pistols are very highly regarded over there. They were not amused. There is a lot of good information over there. There would probably be heart attacks if you showed pictures of a threaded M...

Thanks. I do put a bit of work into my photos. I'm just starting on the video stuff. I have a Model 41 but I've never really considered threading it. I just don't use it much because I prefer my Ruger MK pistols. If I could find a reasonably-priced Model 41 barrel that was already threaded I'd proba...

I pulled the fun little Buckmark rifle portion to its own video. That one is the most fun suppressor host I own.
