I know that the suppressor transfers sound in to heat so I wonder if you have 2 suppressors made of the same material and one gets hotter faster would this be a Gage of suppression ??
 
Re: Hot suppressor = quality?

Given the temperature most suppressors reach, I think your ears would be a better gauge of suppression.

Not to mention the more mass the suppressor has the more energy it could absorb before it reached a given temperature, doesn't necessarily mean it's a worse suppressor, just a heavier one.

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.

Dude, you're a freaking d-bag. Didn't boltripper tell you to go away? You have the grammar of a 12 year old. Does your mom know that you're surfing the interwebs annoying real people?
 
Re: Hot suppressor = quality?

Toddacguy and myself did some thermal imaging testing on several cans....the thermal camera reported EXACT temps within a bracketed pre-set temp range....

what we found was.....

some cans are pure shit (read loud)

while others exibited severe hotspots that came on very quickly to spike to a very high temp....(read it don't distribute the hot gasses very well.

others spread the heat nicely to all the cones and peaked to a much lower temp.

every fucking one make a suppressor...its like cooking pasta...throw it up on the wall ....and if it sticks.....you go with it.

we like one can that we found is superior by design....& we shoot 'em a lot.....don't start pm'ing me...just go and get a shark.


no charge....you'll thank me for it later
