    Suppressors 300 blackout sub/super ar suppressor

    My 300sps and nomad 30 make subsonic 300 very quiet; yes, the action cycling takes away from the epic "shhhhh". Those are usually on my bolt 300 uppers. I have found the CAT ODB to be a good option too, with less blowback--this is important to me and a high flow can like HUX isn't ideal...

    1-8 / 1-10×

    I just ran downstairs and looked through my nx8 and march (gen 2 with dual plane ret). And the ATACR Id call getting behind the March a bit more forgiving than the NX8. And at their top zoom, the NX8 shadows more. I find the NX8's reticle to be much brighter. Whether it's easier to pick up...

    Which suppressor? Magnus or Flow 7.62

    I had a similar outcome with my Flow 762. I found the Ventum and the Cat ODB to provide juuust enough more back pressure to cycle many (though not all) of the subs I have tried.

    March FX 1-10x24mm Shorty Gen II Focus Question

    Yes, I got it back. Aside from various customs forms, it was an easy and relatively quick process. There was nothing wrong with it per se. March confirmed that while very similar, the windage holds on the 1-10 are more subtle/ less solid than on the 1.5-15. My eyes had a difficult time...

    March FX 1-10x24mm Shorty Gen II Focus Question

    March CS was awesome and the scope came back with the ever-so-slgihtly different 1.5-15 reticle. But otherwise, no updates. Remind me what info youre looking for and I will try again.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns If you had $2000 to spend for a range pistol…

    Taking advantage of that statement... and recognizing this suggestion adds a bit more--maybe too much more--a Vudoo Gunworks Priest would be cool. Mimicking my early thought (which is really a personal plan that I'm projecting), a 5" RDS only with factory ports would be pretty cool.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns If you had $2000 to spend for a range pistol…

    Do you have a time line? Like are you scratching a "right now" purchase itch? If not, a Stealth Arms Platypus done up the way you want would be fun. They feel great in hand--the grip feels better to me than Staccato's OEM grips (all of mine have aftermarket and reduction grips)--and shoot...

    Platypuss holsters. What are you running.

    I have a few from Hammer Armament (the Thunder Classic and the Lighting) for my Staccato P, and the Platty its pretty well.

    Any Platypuss owners out there.

    I have one, having waited to the bull barrel and gripper grip option to be released before ordering it. I got a regular and a threaded barrel. I love my 2011s--and most have extra grip reduction and stippling, but the Platty's grip feel is very good.

    Least "gassy" 556, 11.5 inch(or so), piston, AR and Suppressor Combo?

    I have an 11.5" Triarc (not their suppressor-only gas port), fixed gas block and a HUXWRX and it's good. If less gas out of the ejection port is relevant, I have had good results with KAK's down vent carrier. I also have a 10.5" Criterion with a Superlative Arms piston kit and the HUXWRX and...

    Seeking Low Back Pressure .30cal Can (so many choices)

    I have both, though the following is a mix of my experience, hunch and "it says on the web," so grain of salt and all that. The only rifle I've used both outside on is a SBR 300 blk with subs and the DA was quieter. This was just my ear meter noting that while I could shoot the Ventum...

    Any 1911 aficionados here?

    I sort of agree with this. Mine functions very well and is very accurate. But it does *feel* a bit different... now that Im reading cas6969' comment. I'd buy another one, but only after buying many of the other options.

    Any 1911 aficionados here?

    My LB was my first "fancy" 1911. It took over 700 rounds to break in. Until then, it had some kind of issue almost every magazine. That said, it *did* break in; I would not use the phrase "loosen up" because it still feels like it was made out of a single piece of steel. For a while it was...

    What do you think of dedicated suppressed uppers/rifles?

    Your comment was pretty much my experience. I had a suppressor-only Triarc 11.5 with a surefire 556. Shot great, but as lefty, did not like getting all the ejection port crap in my face. Swapped to a DA Nomad30 with the .30 cal endcap, but by then I had started down the flow-thru rabbit hole...

    Minimally obtrusive ear pro you can leave on for periods of time

    If you go with an over-the-ear option, make sure--as noted above--you can get gel cups. They usually make a huge difference in comfort as well as sealing around eye pro better.

    SBR/pistol barrel length???

    I with 👆on not SBRing a 13.9. Especially with your optic choice, the 12.5 with its bit-more mv than the shorter options seems a good move. (I have a 12.5 with intermediate gas and its very smooth shooting)

    You guys into low backpressure cans?

    Yes, but so far Ive limited it--it's the 718 version--to a 8" 300 blk shooting mostly subs--clearly overkill. It cycles most of the subs Ive used, though doesn't lock back on some. It sounds great with them. I want to try it on other gas guns but most of them have a HUXWRX mount and the...

    You guys into low backpressure cans?

    I have a bunch of low back pressure cans (including a range of OSS-HUX and a CAT ODB) as well as a few higher back pressure ones (Surefire and DA). While the latter have a place, the low pressure cans have been--to borrow your category--game changers. I shoot long gun lefty and am relatively...

    Building lightweight AR10 - VSeven Harbinger vs 2A Xanthos Lite vs other?

    Yes, my comment wasn't a comparison. But I think it speaks to V7's attention to detail, and that was an aspect of a question the OP asked.

    Building lightweight AR10 - VSeven Harbinger vs 2A Xanthos Lite vs other?

    Just chiming in regarding V7. I have some of their barrels and a few stripped uppers and rails. But to the question about "what sets them apart?" I recall when a friend ordered a stripped upper and then placed an order of a stripped lower and they called him and said something to the effect of...
