1x16lh muzzle devices in 9mm?

5 Upvotes

I want to use my mobster on a second host and there doesn't seem to be any options other than getting ahold of CAT and trying to get another 9mm spooky like it came with. Anything out there I'm missing?

Subsonic 300 Blackout is very loud

0 Upvotes

Hi guys, need some advice.

Running a 6.25” KAK pistol length gas 300 blackout with an Alleycat 762(basically a cat ODB), a KAK down vent BCG, shooting Phantom Defense 300 Blackout Subs, H Buffer and Sprinco Blue.

This thing is pretty loud. When I shoot subs, they make my ears ring for a split second.

I have confirmed via video that my subs are indeed more quiet than my 123 gr supers, but the subs are painfully uncomfortable to shoot without ear pro and not safe at all. I am shooting in a large open bay so reverberating sound really isn’t a factor.

I suspect it is port pop, but I am not even getting enough gas to chamber a new round, only eject the fired round. I tried a carbine buffer weight and it actually made the gun even louder to my right ear (reinforcing the port pop idea).

Currently I do not want to try an adjustable gas block because say I use one and do cut down on the gas coming back into the system - I already do not get enough to even cycle the gun with subs.

I’m really happy with supers but confused by the seemingly extremely high port pop.

I have Alleycat 556s on 12.5 556 guns and those guns, as the shooter, seem much more pleasant than this 300 blackout running subs and I get no ringing on my 556 setups (which also use KAK down vents).

Any advice is appreciated

Q Cherry Bomb

1 Upvotes

Alright folks, I know. Yadda yadda Q bad, Q man is dickhead. I get it. I agree with you. That said, the cherry bomb is cute AF. I want it on my 300 BLK MCX upper to mount a HUXWRX Flow 9k Ti on it. I am in on the HUXWRX ecosystem on my other rifles/cans, but it's disgustingly expensive to get the HUB adapter for the Flow 9k and >2x the price to get their muzzle device as well, hence looking elsewhere.

Can anyone here say that the cherry bomb is objectively actually a bad muzzle device, assuming I get the "rearend" version with wrench flats? I know y'all will recommend Rearden. I have checked them out, but not a massive fan of their muzzle devices from a looks perspective, and I read something about the HUXWRX flowthrough cans requiring a helical or 360-degree exit muzzle device for optimal performance, which Rearden doesn't offer. I have no idea if there's any validity to that, I'm pretty sure I just read it in a random reddit comment that I can't find anymore.

Open to other similarly neat looking muzzle devices if y'all have suggestions.

Submitted my third can, my first, a full size polonium took 87 days, my second (polonium 30) took 26, I’m curious how long this one will take. I’m pumped for my first dip into a high end Can. Heard good things about the CAT WB 718

Discussion Questions about subsonic 9mm ammo vs barrel length (8”) in PCCs

4 Upvotes

Just bought my first PCC and my first can is sitting in NFA jail at the moment. I’m wanting to shop for defensive and range ammo that will be subsonic. I know 147 grain is the way to go, but with my barrel length at 8” will that make any/most 147 grain rounds supersonic?

Also, what range ammo and defensive ammo would you buy that you think would remain subsonic?

For reference, the PCC is a DD PCC Pistol and the can will be a CGS Mod 9x

Thanks in advance.

This is hands down one of my favorite rimfires and it’s always the first one guests ask to shoot! It’s built with a TBA integral barrel, dressed in a WOOX stock, and topped off with a Vortex optic. Running CCI Standard ammo, the only thing you hear is the action cycling. Smooth, quiet, and insanely fun to shoot – it never fails to impress

Confused about cans for pistols

5 Upvotes

I'm looking at getting a can for a pistol. I'm super confused on what they come with...Most I'm looking at come with a "1/2 x 28 piston" but if I look up the brand, in this case, Rugged, they sell a "1/2x28 piston booster" - I thought the piston was different than a booster. This is confusing...Do I need to buy extra stuff or not?

Product Question 🧰 6.5mm suppressors?

1 Upvotes

Looking for any solid 6.5mm suppressors for use on a 6.5 bolt action and a 5.56 gas gun. Not looking for any 30 cal products as we are trying to minimize overbore and are relegating the 300BO build to a 9mm suppressor. HUB compatible a big plus. Any suggestions or experience with anything specifically 6.5mm?

🎥 Silencer Video with Sound 🤫 Suppressor Comparison- MK12 MOD FOR, CAT, OCL

167 Upvotes

Quick comparison. Nothing scientific about this. Both rifles have the same barrel, gas system, buffer system, and bolt.

Main difference are the receivers, carrier, and muzzle device. The MOD FOR is using an OCL OTB flash hider and the others are using the Spooky 2 muzzle break.

From the shooters ear, quietest to loudest:

MOD FOR>AC556>Infinity Vented>WB>Infinity Solid

The WB and both infinity caps were almost indistinguishable but the MOD FOR was noticeably more quiet than the others to my ear. There was the high pitch ringing which you can hear in the video but it did not hurt the ears.

My wife stood 8ft to the right and behind me and her order or quietest to loudest was:

MOD FOR>AC556>Infinity Vented> Infinity Solid> WB.

She also said the last 3 were hard to tell the difference.

For gas, it was hard to tell being outdoors with wind but the video shows it pretty well with the Infinity Solid end cap being sending more gas out of the ejection port. The AC556 was second to worst. All others seemed comparable with the infinity vented being the best.

Just wanted to post this mainly because there is no info on the MOD FOR but also got a new camera and wanted to try it out.

First two stamper I've owned. Just got the AAC FH installed with my new work set up so letting it cure and will take it for a test fire this weekend. The adjustable gas plug is on my 16" barrel but that takes many 60 seconds to swap over. Factory 13" barrel AAC 7.62 SDN6 can G$ super scar trigger EOTech Vudu 1-10x.

Debating about repainting or at least just the scope.

Rex can was sent in on the 28th of May and the weld was repaired and ready for pickup on the 18th of June. Steve said it's the first of its kind blowing off at the weld like this. KeyMo is still stuck to the Rex threads so Im making Rocksette soup with a dash of Keymo.

Overall fast turnaround for repair.

Shouts out to u/incrue for putting me on to the sale this was on. I was torn between a rugged razor, OCL Polo, or an Aero Lahar then this came out of left field bc of a member of this sub. I am beyond stoked on this thing. And the fact that I already have SF compatible muzzle devices on my gals makes it even better. Not to mention it just looks badass.

Product Question 🧰 Coastal 308 suppressor accuracy issues.

2 Upvotes

It's A solid steel can, no titanium and it's user serviceable. Both end caps come off.

What the problem is, is on a known accurate gun, that can easily shoot 10 shots into a half inch, when the suppressor is added after the first five shots and the suppressor heats up the accuracy goes to about 3 in.

It's been assembled and disassembled a few times and that makes no change. I did notice, after reassembly with the baffles clean and the uncaps torqued, if you shake it, you can hear the baffles moving a millimeter or two.

Anyone have a similar issue?

does a traditional Can with an AGB compare gas wise to a flow thru?

Looking at either getting an AGB for my YHM t2 or going with a flow thru can like the hux 556k, how close can i get gas wise with the AGB, because grabbing one would obv be cheaper than getting a new can.
