Suppressors My life SUCKS!

So I'm on my way home from the Bash and I have a conundrum! I won a 40% off Surefire Suppressor coupon in the raffle (thank God for the raffle cause I couldn't hit the broadside of a barn...from inside...with the doors shut).
So now, I have to decide WHICH suppressor I want!
Option 1- .338LM for my DTA (same setup the Surefire rep was rocking at the match)
Option 2- .556 MINI for my shorty POF
Option 3- Wait patiently for a 7.62 variant of the MINI to come out so I can use it on pretty much everything I own (aside from the DTA)

FML...

The mini is not mean for SBR's. Its meant to take the bark out of 14.5" and 16" rifles, and reduce flash. I have one Im waiting for approval on, when I get it Ill test it and write a review.

Option 1

You think your life sucks!?
Try living in NY where you will NEVER have a shot of owning anything like a collapsible stock, SBR, a high capacity magazine let alone a sound suppressor.

I wish and pray to God I had your problem

I got to go now, Bloomberg and his cronies may be coming to take me away because I of what I just typed.

God Bless and Merry Christmas
 
Re: My life SUCKS!

How short of a barrel is your SBR? The mini is hearing safe on a 14.5 but probably not on anything shorter than that.

If you can wait we will be releasing some new stuff at SHOT in January that might interest you.
 
Re: My life SUCKS!

With that kind of attitude, your life is always going to suck.

I would say you should ask yourself which you would use most often? You can always adapt a large suppressor to a smaller caliber, you can't go the other way.
 
Re: My life SUCKS!

Oh I believe I can wait for Jan...I am a patient type when its worth my while...

Oh, and Thanks to Surefire for putting up suppressors, discount coupons, and lights for the Bash!
 
Re: My life SUCKS!

I am with 300WSM. Get the surefire, sell it, and get an AAC or something diffrent.

Also, may want to check if you can shoot 556 through a surefire 7.62. Seen one get a baffle strike doing this. It was an older surefire.
 
Re: My life SUCKS!

Only things keeping me from the .338 can is the fact that it will not fit on my DTA's .308 barrel and it's kinda hard to justify $1200 for a can I'm only gonna use a few times a year.

But the few times a year, it will be priceless to have! I would go .338 if I had your problem.

Re: My life SUCKS!

I've got a suppressed .308 I nearly never use, but my 556 can gets used all the time. Get the one you are going to see benefit from most often.
