The reality is you are here on the internet asking for advice on what everyone else thinks you should buy and why you should buy it. May be you need to take your own advice and actually go get some real world, hands on experience with some suppressors and then make a decision for yourself. Better yet-- Just buy one of each and when you get them in six-twelve months you can do an extensive review on each and post it for everyone else-- or you can save yourself the money of buying them all and take the advice of those who already have them. Then again, even if you did a review, it would be useless for everyone else because it would just be something they read on the internet. You are very critical of the very advice you have asked for. </div></div>

Perhaps you missed it in my posts above or perhaps you didn't grasp what I asked for above. I have never asked what I should buy, I have asked for individuals feedback on what drove them to ultimately buy a TB over other suppressors out there. Likewise, a few posts above, I stated that I have suppressors I use at work as well as time behind commercially available ones belonging to friends of mine. I have no objection to taking advice but so far none of any substance has been given except for 1-2 posts as of late. I am not being critical of the advice, I am asking for a more detailed explanation as to the logic of why people, those specific individuals, bought TB cans over the others out there. Does that clear things up and identify what it is I want to know for you?

Because thats what it sounds like you all are saying.

Nope, I'm anal about my gear, when I spend my hard earned money, I want the best out there. From reading and seeing several preform at shoots, I was sold. I've ran many other brands and own some, for precision work, TBAC will always be my choice. </div></div>

Thank you for your reply, thats along the lines of what I am trying to discern here. Based on your having used other brands and having used the TB, what was it about the TB that impressed you enough to spend your money on it and make it your number one choice?

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Zak Smith</div><div class="ubbcode-body">If all your rifles can have the same thread setup and you don't need a brake on when the can is off, the 30P-1 is the better choice. </div></div>

Better choice... (because it's cheaper?)

If you don't mind me asking you can you please tell me why it's better choice?

The can that I am going to buy will go on a .308. maybe on a 300WM if I will buy one. And most likely it will go on a .223

I will need to pay for them tomorrow and don't know what to choose 30BA or 30P-1
 
Re: Please help me choose a can for .308 and one for .

Yes, the only difference is that the BA model goes over our brake. This makes it easier to adapt to rifles with different threads, and you obviously retain a muzzle brake when the can is off.

You cannot retrofit a 30P-1 to a 30BA
