I spent some time with Pat (PC Arms) and we played with my can a bit as well as some of his stuff. We tried mine with a spacer and 2 less baffles (6 out of 8) and also tried it with no baffles in the can. The can was obviously quietest with all 8 baffles but the biggest suprise was the level of suppression with no baffles at all. The can was actually comfortable to shoot without hearing protection and much quieter than I would have thought. A mere 6" long 1" tube and no guts.
Basically those interested could form 1 their tube and be able to use it as is for awhile while working out baffles. It really amazed me as to how well it worked.
I'd also like to thank Pat for letting me play around at his shop.
Interesting observation for the form 1 guys

Re: Interesting observation for the form 1 guys
Hello, no big surprise, why do you think were so called PET-bottle Adapters sold in Switzerland as a silencer substitute after real sielncer were no longer available?
Just volume works fine too, especially when the bootom hole is small

firearm silencers are a contribute to environmental protection

these guys have it listed at 250$ and that if they still have them, they havent been made for 6 or 7 years..

AWC saw no reason to make a comp you had to get a stamp for. Mine was grandfathered in.
