Re: Hot suppressor = quality?
..
Zev,
You do come up with the oddest questions!
The answer is no, it is not a means to measure the relative efficiency of the suppressor. There is a lot to this question, but lets just leave it that the perceived heat on the exterior of the can is dependent on a good number of variable in both design, construction, mode of fire, ammunition, barrel length, etc., etc.
Need to measure efficiency? Three things PEAK, DURATION and FREQUENCY.
