Suppressor Thoughts?

[Rhinoaz]

I definitely recommend getting a can also. I have a few, with my tbac ultra 7 being my go to hunting can. I definitely recommend going to cancon (april 10-11 or the evt shoot 3/22 out at ben avery. Shoot them all and decide what works best for you. All of them say this and that about how great theirs is,but when you shoot them back to back you can decide for   yourself. Also since your pretty much married to them, remember the buy once cry once moto. Good luck and you’ll won’t regret your decision about getting one.

What is "quick"? 

I've heard 3 months is fast and 8-12 months is expected

Less than a week.

If you don’t mind me asking, what advantage in POI consistency does does quick connect give you?  I have thread ons, mostly because they only come off when I go to Canada or MX and it’s not that long of a job to spin them off, but if there’s a POI benefit I’d be all ears

If can happen depending on the design of the can and how it vents. If you look at a cut away of some cans you will see that if you thread on and off a can it may not index exactly the same each time. It’s really noticeable on 22LR cans for sure. A QD system usually indexes at the same mount point each time hence more consistency

I didn't think they worked on Saturdays, but my buddy just got one approved this morning. Little less than 2 weeks. He also had one get approved in 2 days last month.

Once you own one what is the process for selling it when you want to get rid of it down the road? Never seen that discussed before.

It's a nfa item so you have to submit  to the atf for a transfer  from  you to another  party  .

Unless something has changed the approval process is similar to the old timelines for new ones. One of the shops here has a couple used ones on consignment and said they have to be done on paper instead of the e-filing method so it's slower.

Not usually worth selling a used nfa item unless it’s a rare collectible or MG

Majority of people who shoot suppressors would disagree with you on qd vs. Direct thread.  Main reason being stacking tolerances. 

 

Fwiw, I move my direct thread cans amongst a bunch if my guns, and my poi does not change.  

[AzDiamondHeat]

never had poi change on any rifle with any can. all mine are direct thread.  probably not as convenient  as the qd mount but i am never in a hurry swapping cans. 

only advice i would give other than get 3 is to get 30 cal.  can use it on any rifle without having to worry.

I need to check again on my chrono, but I think my can made my 25 creed shoot about 150 fps slower. Anyone else notice a reduction in speed with a can vs non can?

I think that would have to have been anecdotal error?  I’ve heard guys claim they get 10-30fps higher, but have never seen that myself.  It’s always right on with my muzzle break.  I don’t see how it could slow it down any.

I'll have to run it again to check it.
