^^^Dude, that meme was awesome and right on point. I go through this every time I buy a new suppressor.

I try not to be too much of a fanboy in my own threads. I dont sell large numbers of suppressors, but a trend has appeared in my suppressor demos. If a DD LTi is included in a bolt action demo, it wins every single time, regardless of what its going up against. The other trend is that cost matters. A LTI out the door with stamp and sales tax is less than the Ultra 9 retail. Tbac is never a bad choice though. They're beautifully made and very straight.

Mathematically, a change of 10 decibels is equivalent to a 10 fold change in sound pressure. 3 decibels is approximately a doubling of sound pressure.
TBAC gives you one free cleaning a year. Don’t know about the other company.
As someone who has only user-serviceable cans (meaning I, and only I, must clean them as no one else will), I can tell you cleaning suppressors royally sucks balls. I have an RC3 Surefire welded up can in jail and the only reason I didn’t go TBAC is that they didn’t offer a flow through can.
If the cans are pretty similar, the cleaning service would be the tiebreaker (for me).
Also I’d wait until Jan when I’ve been told by TBAC that new cans will be announced. Note: I’m not a fanboy, and I own only one TBAC can, a Takedown 22. (I should see if they’ll clean that one once a year as well, hmmmmm)

I called and talked to a lady at tbac this morning wondering about this. She said they do have new cans to release but nothing to compete with the ultra 9.

The Ti cans are very easily cleaned by filling them up with CLR. Let them sit overnight, then rinse.
So, agreed, a Ti can is not too hard to clean IF you clean it on a schedule, and it helps if you weighed it when you got it so you know the target weight.
If you wait too long…have fun! TBAC has spent weeks trying to clean some guy’s cans.

As far as not cleaning you suppressor, well, that was the party line for a while. It has been proven wrong. Take a gander at the thread below. There are many threads like it.
Suppressors - Do you clean your suppressor?
I sent an Ultra 7 to TBAC to remove the insert to go from direct thread to CB mount. When I weighed the box I thought to myself "that's pretty heavy". I got a call from them the day they received it and they said it should be cleaned asit was nearly 4 oz. heavy. I've never cleaned it and...

I am not talking about clean for anal-retentives types, and certainly not sparkling clean.
Any more feedback on these DDC cans? I have a TBAC dominus (which I have been very happy with) and I’m looking to buy another can soon.
I’m either going with the ultra 9 or the Enticer LTI.
The Enticer is substantially cheaper, which is my main reason I’m looking at it.
But I know TBAC has been around for several years and they are known to make a very good can.
I appreciate any replies guys, so thanks in advance

Too early to tell for me yet. Only 150 rds through my LTi so far. So far so good. It's hard to remove off the host when hot (My 1st direct thread can). Needs a slim 13/16" wrench to crack it loose.
However, a guy on FB had his new STi's weld break before he even fired it.
Enticer is better than the Ultra 9 imo.
The tbac Magnus is what the Enticer Lti is more in line with. Both are very quiet, the enticer is much cheaper though. Diligent are good group of guys. I've met them on a couple occasions. Buy with confidence. Otter Creek Hydro-L, Liberty Mach L, Resilient Jolene are also great options.
Glad to hear you say the resilient Jolene is good… as I just purchased one last week. Went in to buy a DD enticer L. Guy talked me into the Jolene. Think I’m still gonna buy a 338 DD enticer tho
Convert it to HUB. I'm using the Huxwrx QD HUB mount and it's very easy to get on/off. Repeatable POI when you take it on/off as well.
Anyone running this EA thunderbeast/bravo mount on a DDF enticer LTI or STI and using a tbac break with it? Any issues getting it on or off?

I have two of them and am in the process of replacing both. They don’t fit the TBAC brakes nearly as well as the TBAC versions of the same. They don’t make contact with the conical shoulder on the brake.Anyone running this EA thunderbeast/bravo mount on a DDF enticer LTI or STI and using a tbac break with it?

Damn so there is no way to run the CB breaks with these cans? Does anyone else make an adapter better suited?
I do use one of them (the EA version) and have replaced the other with the TBAC adapter. But it doesn’t give me a lot of confidence when using a 9” can when the can doesn’t lock up against the brake shoulder. I have not had a baffle strike and I have not had any issues with accuracy. But I have been waiting for months to purchase a few more of the TBAC brand adapters.

I will order the tbac adapters. Thank you for your help.
I have been using the ecco machine HUB to CB adapter on my KGM can and have a second KGM coming that I will use another ECCO machine adapter on. Mine has worked perfect and no issues seating on the shoulder of TBAC CB brakes on multiple rifles.
