We are planning a few mounts for the Octane HD including a MAC option. No timeline on them at this point.

A 1.75" x 6" coaxial high volume design with the Octane baffles and "MAC" style mount ?!....
Just so the awesome guys at SWR/SilencerCo know...and I'm sure they do, it will take more than making a MAC style mount. Without a larger diameter tube, the gas and blowback will be horrific on a high cyclic rate SMG. Stick those fantastic Octane baffles in a 1.75-2" x 6-7" diameter coaxial can with a forcing cone in front and you will have the BEST "MAC" style can out there.
BUT... if they do make a mount, it should have some variation of a locking mount. The biggest downfall for suppressing the "MAC" style guns is the large threads on the barrels.

Hmmm. Sounds sort of like an updated version of the MK9. Definitely a cool idea.

Or just skip the MAC threads (baffle strike waiting to happen), and turn a fine-pitch thread on the end of the barrel. Much better solution.

I would love a 2"x7-8" Octane for my Mac.

Is this happening SWR? I would pay for a serial number on a trust ahead of the changes.

We have nothing like this I am aware of in the pipeline.
