    Suppressors Silencerco Saker 7.62 Reviews?

    I don't have any solid repeatability data but in the instances where I have shot 20+ rounds on the 7.62 gas gun(with Jp adjustable gas block) I have had the saker get stuck on the ad muzzle brake. It is easily removed with a few strikes from a mallet. It reminds me of how a socom or fa556 gets...

    I would have had a solid range report from last weekend but my buddy, who wanted to plink with it using his AR while I was doing a ladder test got his muzzle brake stuck in it. He had installed the brake himself and did not torque it to spec. Used and adjustable wrench. Easy fix in the vice...

    It definitely makes sense. Two thoughts on that: 1. Why not put a saker MB on your long gun to not have to swap mounts on the can. With that you can be repeatable. 2. If you are going to swap MAAD mounts, consistent swapping might keep things repeatable. Unsure on that. I'll add that to the...

    You can swap out the mount to a direct thread: http://www.store.silencerco.com/collections/center-fire-rifle/products/direct-thread-maad-mount Then back to a QD type mount for your AR: http://www.store.silencerco.com/collections/center-fire-rifle/products/trifecta-maad-mount Note that it comes...

    I personally have two AAC SDN-6s and the Saker 762 blows them out of the water (I say this with minimal sound testing). 1. No 51t wobble issues 2. The modularity of the MAAD mount, I can swap to barrels I already have AAC mounts on in 5 min

    I will be shooting one at the range this weekend at 300 yds on a 308 AR gas gun (Mega MKM - w/ 18in barrel). I will let you know how it goes. Fitment seems to be spot on with the Saker556. I'm no expert, but Silencerco's advertisement is that the friction mount is supposed to be better than the...

    They have been getting pretty far behind recently. - Back in April/May I was seeing a 30 day turn around from submission to approval and about 5 business days to get the approved form 3 in hand. - June/July it was about 6 weeks from submission to approval. - As of today I just looked and...
