Just got my Omega out of jail today. Put on the adapter from Tarheel State Firearms and now it can be used on all my rifles with a MAAD mount. Cool. Thanks guys!
Why yes, my Omega has gone MAAD!

Awesome! What's the weight with the MAAD mount?

I don't know. I don't have a scale with sufficient precision. Think the Post office would have a fit if I took it in there to weigh on one of their automated machines?

Awesome! Any plans to have it coated black to match? If so, I'd love to see it then!

Re: Why yes, my Omega has gone MAAD!
No, I didn't consider it for two reasons. First, it might mess up the can's threading. The last thing I want to do is 86 the can because of a stupid human error like that. Lifetime warranty notwithstanding, I wouldn't want to test the limits of the "stupid user error" clause. Second, this goes on my long distance rifle and will be living inside an Armageddon Gear suppressor cover for almost all of its life. Not seen . . . . and not heard (much) either. hehe
If I were to add a minor third to the list, when the can does venture out of its cover, IMHO there's a little over the shoulders, "just look at me now, boys" panache to it. Your opinions may vary on that of course.

That is awesome. I'm still of the opinion that the MAAD system is better than ASR. Despite a few "flying can" stories out there.

Stopped by the post office today. With the adapter and MAAD mount (and anchor brake), it's right at 16 oz.

MAAD mount with titanium adapter is 5.1 ounces alone. I've got the same setup waiting on a Hybrid to get set free.
Long term plan is to rebore a 5/8-24 7.62 break for a 458 socom build. I also have a Saker 7.62 and 3 guns that use the MAAD mount, two 5.56 and a 300BO.

It's not a silencer, it's a can of whoopass!
Re: Why yes, my Omega has gone MAAD!
The MAAD mount is the best product they have, I wish they would stop using the 3 hands and a foot the lock down specwar mount. The Saker is awesome because you just twist it a half turn and its locked in. I'm gonna check that out, I was looking at doing the same thing, I want to build a 458 SBR for hog hunting. I had given up on Silencerco and started looking at a few others instead. Thanks for the info.
