Are all K baffles equal?

General silencer discussion. If you want to talk about a specific silenced rifle or pistol, it is best to do that in the rifle or pistol section for that brand.

All NFA laws apply.

Are all manufacturers K baffles equal in their effectiveness or are some better than others?

Some are better than others. The dimensions are not idiot-proof.

We have greatly improved the performance of the K baffle. The Element is the first example from us. Check out the latest test from silencerresearch.com.
