    Suppressors Tbac cb brake taper question..

    Just received the adapter, thank you HansohnBrothers. Fits like a champ on the SiCo Hybrid. Took the opportunity to weigh it vs my TBAC cans. Here's a breakdown of the weights: Ultra 9: 12 oz Recored 30P: 14 oz Hybrid w/ EA adapter & SiCo 30 cal endcap: 16 oz Ultra 338 w/ CB adapter: 18 oz

    Suppressors Best suppressor option for PRS

    The Omega is a good can. I would run the Omega on an Area 419 adapter and see how you like it. Later, when you want more cans you can look at TBAC. They do make an excellent can.

    Suppressors Tbac cb brake taper question..

    Nice! I have a lot of CB mounts for my Ultras and always wanted an adapter to throw the Hybrid on if needed.

    Accuracy International Picture Thread

    The shade of green used in the AIAT and AICS skins varies by batch. My '14 AT is a darker green then the skins made more recently.

    Suppressors Dead Air E Brake

    I think the E-Brake is worth it. It gives the optionality to run either a shorter or longer length can. My K with the E brake is flatter shooting than my S, and almost as quiet. Well worth the $$.

    Suppressors Thunder Beast backorders........

    Like everyone has said, TBAC cans are completely worth the wait. Best machining and finishing I have ever seen on a suppressor, and great customer service.

    Suppressors Sandman-K ordered. ? On DA accessories

    I put the E Brake on my K, and it cut down the recoil and noise. It is flatter shooting than the S on my 5.56 Mk 18 clone.

    Suppressors Dead Air Sandman K vs Nomad vs ???

    Good call going with the Nomad. Even on my fixed gas block ARs, the Sandman S is noticeably quieter at the ear than the K. The Nomad would be a great multi-purpose solution, and I would pick one up if I wasn't already good for .30 cal cans.

    Suppressors Dead Air Sandman K vs Nomad vs ???

    I have the Sandman K, Sandman S, SiCo Hybrid, and half a dozen TBAC cans. Haven't tried the Nomad yet, but I like what I've heard. The Dead Air cans live on my AR-15 SBRs (10.3, 11.5, and 14.5). I found the Sandman K to be a better fit on the 14.5 where there is less unburned powder and muzzle...

    Suppressors Purchased my first suppressor

    Great choice getting the TBAC, they are top notch. It's worth the wait, you will enjoy that can for a long time.

    Suppressors Purchased my first suppressor

    Yes, you can submit the fingerprint cards without LEO sign off. My dealer offers fingerprints and pics as a service. All the LEO gets is the FYI paperwork.

    Rifle Scopes Magnification: is more always better?

    Exactly. Think of the change in FOV on the low end. The 100 yd FOV at 3x (37.8 ft) is 50% greater than the FOV at 4.5x (25.3 ft). On the top end, going from 18x to 27x is a 50% increase in magnification. They are both 6x erector scopes. The OP just has to decide which is more important, top end...

    Suppressors Recore, Thank you TBAC

    In my case, my 30P was a direct thread. All my rifles had been upgraded to CB brakes, so the 30P was sitting it the safe not being used. So for me, upgrading to a CB mount plus advancing a few generations of baffle design was worth it.

    Suppressors Talk me out of an SAS suppressor

    Have you looked at the TBAC 556 Take Down? Great price, great CS, and the baffles can be rotated or swapped out. I have an older 223A and it is indestructible.
