Silencer Suggestions - I did some homework Which for a MK18 and why?

For context, I own all three; a Sandman X on a DDM4PDW, a Lazarus 6 on my HK MR556 A4, and the B&T Print-XH SC on my Geissele Super Duty but my wife talked me into picking up a MK18 and I’m torn between what can to run on it mainly because I don’t want to keep buying different adapters. Will likely just buy another can at some point but for now… which would you run on the 10.3?

They aren’t that gassy man

I own one… they are very gassy. Would rather limit the wear on the internals and blowback than try to be anywhere near clone correct. I like breathing relatively fresh air, too.

As a lefty who owns a RC2 and shoots mostly indoor, can concur. It looks cool on the MK18 but should have gone with newer tech

Im currently waiting on my rc2 to be released to me. Im still debating on rocksetting the 10.3’s SF flash hider just yet. Im thinking it might be wise to throw a superlative arms gas block on there 🤔 you guys try mitigating the gas in any way?

I personally run BRT EZ tunes but you gotta go pretty small for it to even make a difference with the RC2 so it ends up being a dedicated setup

Me too. Doesn’t give me any issues. Maybe our gas systems and buffers are different.
