Barrret M82A1 suppressor? Are they worth it? Which one?

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.

Barrret M82A1 suppressor? Are they worth it? Which one?

Post by Kip42 »

Is it worth it to suppress an M82A1? Will it wear the gun out quicker? Will any work on the semi auto m82a1?

I think it only works on a specific gun. Other wise it is not warrantied. Get a bolt gun and a 50 can. You will love it.

Ditto+1 The 82A1 will beat itself to death eventually. The extra weight hung off the end of the barrel and increased back pressure screws the timing up. The new M107A1 has been designed to accomodate a suppressor and Barrett has designed one for it. Reviews have been mixed as concerns accuracy or lack thereof. Get a bolt gun and AAC Cyclops. You will not be disappointed. Last link is video of my McBros Tac-50 / AAC Cyclops combo. A tack driver with handloads.
