No offense, but I will believe that when I see some objective sound meter data. OPS INC and SRT make some of the quietest suppressors around, and their small 5.56 silencers meter WAY over the 140dB OSHA cutoff for hearing safety, and that's measured 39 inches left of the muzzle. I have serious doubts that TacOps makes a 4" silencer that will not damage the hearing of someone holding their ear 6" from the end of the can. </div></div>
None taken, this is a forum for discussion and opinion and everyone is entitled so no worries.
If you are LE and can get a letter on letter head signed off by your Captain, you can fax it to TacOps and they will give you a can to T&E for 30 days with no obligation to purchase.
You will also receive a list of references from many different agencies, all who use the TacOps CQB can. You are more than welcome to call them and get their complete and unedited opinion from them direct.
All those agencies tested the TacOps can side by side with 5 or 6 other manufactures in the industry and found TacOps to be superior due to the reduction in noise offered by TacOps through their design and low tone frequency and due to its compactness for the urban environmnet. All have validated the effectiveness of the can and if you get one for T&E you can validate it yourself.
Also, the blow back from the TacOps can is less than that offered by other leading manufactures, its not like a smoke grenade coming from the breach.
