Suppressors Gemtech G5 or Halo

[TORKAR]

Hey folks,
Wondering if anyone has any input regarding the G5 vs. the Halo. I did some "googling" and can't find too many folks with experience with both.

Thanks

Well I have a G5 on its way and my buddy does as well but we are a ways out due to the ATF. When they come in I'll let you know, I took the g5 because I have an fs 2000 and it was a good option for that gun due to the flash suppressor that has the metric left hand threads.

Don't have any experience with the G5, but I run a Halo on a Colt 6920 and a LWRC M6 SPR. Both have the Vortex flash hider. I like the fact that I can swap them between rifles with little to no effort. Halo locks up solid with the vortex. It is a heavy can though, so if you are looking to save on weight, the G5 is probably a better bet.

I love my G5. I have had it for several years and bought it before the G5T came out. If I were to do it over again, i would have paid a little more for the titanium version. I have mounts for the can to go on 2 guns, a 10.5" and a 16" but run it primarily on the 10.5" as that is what I shoot the most. Accuracy is great on both as well.

I do like the idea of having a can that is quick to attach but does not require a special mount like the Halo, however.

I've both the G5 & HALO suppressors & I enjoy them both.they sound very similar to the naked ear. The biggest decision quick attach out not. I use my G5 mostly because of the propriety flash hider being pinned on my barrel for a true 16"barrel.

A friend of mine has had one since 07 and we have put that thing through the ringer with ammo dumps, filling it with various substances etc. And that thing still runs great.
