Is it just me or does this look like a hybrid of an Octane HD (baffle style) and Osprey (split tube). I just haven't seen those features anywhere else.
Please understand that I'm super excited about this. This looks like the perfect can design. User servicable, split can (protects serial #), split baffles (cheap replacements), omni-mounts.... I'm drooling over the features. As long as performance is there I'm one happy clam.
Probably because it's less of an issue if you check your stuff before hand (thread job, can stays tight). Not saying it's not a 'nice to have', but it's going to come at probably an extra expense on the manufacturing side and possibly a loss of strength/added failure point.
I just finished up making some 24mm adapters for the Kestral cans, I currently have 7.62x39, 5.56 and 762x51 or (.30 cal). My host rifles AK74u and AKMSU47 (SLR107u Clone).
I found the sound to be .22lr or a little quieter, I was not impressed witch the performance of the cans on 8.25 host. I did however found on a 16" bbl host they are wonderful at there price point.
I also mounted the .30 cal can to my 47u and tried it a bit better but not what I was looking for.
