I've heard the same thing… unfortunately.

Question: When I re-assemble my Tirant, should the front cap be flush with the body of the silencer? I can't remember if it was or not when I first took it apart. Nothing is rattling inside, so I'm guessing I'm good. I've only had her 6 hours now. When tightened down, the front end cap sits slightl...

I don't know, but i'd assume it's durability.

"hoplon" is just silencerco's marketing name for the design. It means nothing beyond that. here it is, pretty straight forward - http://www.tenpoundmonkey.com/web/hoplon.jpg Did they thin the middle of the spacer to take weight out?!? If so, I guess you can tell patrick his idea would hav...

AAC claims the finish is cerakote, but it comes off far too easy. if this is cerakote then cerakote is basically a thin coat of paint. Cerakote is generally the most durable of the sprayed-on/baked-on finishes… I wonder when the switch was made on the finish? For years and years, they used Duracoat...

the other way around, essentially.

likely it would slightly affect it. Anytime you tweak what is mounted, and the tension on the muzzle device it can shift your zero. I'm with Robert- I hate shooting SBRs with brakes unsuppressed. So which mount would work best with my 11.5" M4 barrel and a SBR PS90? There is no Best. they will...

Glock already provides factory threaded barrels for the 17, 19, 21 since 2011 (through Acusport). All metric threaded.

And they work with all generations AFAIK. It works perfectly fine in my gen2 G19.

and in my gen4 '19

E-file is back up and working

But they are not processing forms 3, 4, or 1 yet. (only form 6s).

Form 4s will be the last one added back to the system, and no one knows how long that will take.

It sounds awesome, I want to try one.

Seriously, you don't fit in if you get all butthurt about that. Emilio is right. Type in all caps, in some odd choppy sentences and don't be shocked if people jab you. Wouldn't it make sense that the teeth on your older one are duller/worn? AAC is always making inline changes to production, some the...

I know nothing factual as far as this particular rumor, but I'd also not put anything past FGI/ROC/Cerb when it comes to perceived cost cutting/"efficiency"...

You've got an extremely fast moving cone of expanding gas, and the baffles need to 'intercept' this gas. just having more of them over the same distance won't put them in position to grab and redirect any more gas. Having a handful more baffles for a given design can make it a little quieter (m4-20...

BEST REVIEW EVER. SO MUCH CANS. VERY INFO. WOW.
TOO YELLING. ENGLISH, SENTENCE STRUCTURE, CAPS LOCK; BOOM.

Inconel does a decent job, Silencerco is using stellite blast baffles but i don't know if the Saker has been out long enough to see real world results. Don't they loan a sample to DoD for 10k rd abuse testing? Seems like having DoD supply the ammo and record/report results to Mfr would be a good te...

Keep saving and step to an RMR. much much better quality.

The thing you won't find us doing is quoting decibel reduction numbers as they are too dependant on combo of host weapon, ammo type, weather conditions, etc. This will be a big problem for you moving forward. We have yet to see a manufacturers claims that aren't heavily contested by everyone. Compa...
