I did the standard QB .22 and it’s great. I can’t tell the difference between it and my buddy’s $400 form 4 suppressor. Love that this is available.
my form 1 took 4 weeks and 4 days FYI

yes, our sheriffs office charges 5 bucks a card. Took them to work scanned them it, had to mess with it to make them a bit darker and getting the old card lines deleted off. Saved it as a template. It took me3 tries to get it aligned correctly and bam!
So what kind of paper are you printing these on??? I thought they had to be sent in on the specific print cards. School me as this would be a game changer for Form 1 trusts with multiple responsible parties to print for.Very nice. I sent in rolled prints but scanned them prior to mailing them. If they get approved with this form 1 I plan on printing the scanned set from now on and sending them in that way.
And for anyone wondering on timeframe for quietbore, I just received a shipping notification on a .22 order - took a week, so not bad.

Got my Quiet Bore .22 in today, and I must say I'm impressed with the look and feel.
Only issue I have is there isn't any chamfer or under cut on the direct thread mount and the 1/2x28 threaded adapter on my SW Compact has no relief cut at the shoulder. The suppressor doesn't thread all the way to the shoulder. It only threads up to the space between the last thread and the shoulder.
So, I guess I can either stack like 4 shims (not really wanting to stack that many) or maybe pick up a jam nut with a chamfer cut? Maybe a thick washer?
Ordered a 45cal on a Saturday night, received it the following Wednesday. Submitted the Form 1 on 18 Feb, They received prints on 22 Feb, approved 17 March. Probably just in time before they start to shut down for the apocalypse and all Form X approvals get 6 mos added to the wait.
The Ti cups are not easy to drill out. I would recommend the jig. Buy a spare cobalt bit. Do not get it hot. Use oil. Remove chips from the bit. Take your time. Set up so you are comfortable. Take breaks. The goal is to have perfectly aligned holes. The way the cups are cut, it will be difficult without a jig.I am new at the form 1 process and hope to get it uploaded by the weekend. I have a TI 22 trap ordered from QB and should be here soon. Once I get the stamp approval hope to start drilling. My question is , has anyone had any luck drilling the Ti baffles without the jig? There appears to be some issue even some were using the jig. I had placed the order before reading this thread or I would have ordered the jig and bit. I am fair at diy and have most tool at hand, drill press and a press vice. Thanks for any help in advance.
Hello friend, you need something like this below, its a common issue with 10/22's and some other guns.

Definitely use the drill press since you have it. But you do need the fixture. The only way I would try it without is drilling on a lathe.

I just drilled my 45 cal can out. I ordered 4 xtra steel baffles to weight it down a little. I ended up drilling all the aluminum baffles out and two of the steel. It weighs 9.6 oz in that configuration. I'd really like it to weigh 12 or 14 oz. Drilling it out using the jig and a hand drill really wasn't a big deal. A little machine oil helped immensely. Going to compare it's sound on my Vudoo .22LR as compared to an AAC Element 2 and a TBAC Ultra 7. Later this week, I'd like to shoot it on my 300BO.

Thanks Guys , You talked me into it. ordered this morning. Sure hope I can get the paperwork in. Sheriff office is close for finger prints because of virus ,don't know when they will be open for print work was their reply. Guess I waited just a little long.
Well I got out this morning to test the 45 Cal quietbore on my Vudoo. This is the primary reason I ordered a quiet war can. My 22 cal AAC Element 2 throws the accuracy off just a little bit on this rifle. Comparing bare muzzle, AAC, and then the Quiet bore. I can hear a difference between the AAC can and the Quiet Bore. The 45 kalkanis just a bit louder. But both are a definite improvement over bare muzzle. In terms of accuracy it's a little undecided. I think I can just tell the difference in the bare muzzle shooting more accurately than the 45 Cal can. I was using some SK standard plus and they will definitely throw some flyers so it's hard to pin down if it's because of the can or just the ammo. Had some really low shots dropout the bottom at 100. at 50 yards the accuracy with the Quietbore was a noticeable improvement over the Element 2. Tomorrow I'm going to try to get out with some good Center X and hopefully isolate any of those flyers.
Nice, I've used my hunters town 556 to shoot .22 through and its surprisingly quiet. did you order the Titanium baffles? With my QB .22 It seems that my accuracy is better then my warlock, or Maybe im just dreaming. I've been shooting one handed NRa matches from like 20 yrds.
card holder. Not necessary in my opinion, but it can be helpful.

The pad i used. Worked very well. Store it upside down (pad side down with lid on) so the surface stays inked. roll your fingerprints. practice on some 3x5 cards or printer paper first to see how heavy you need the ink.
*edit. When you order the cards from ATF order a bunch of extra. After you see how easy it is to efile a form SBRs and more form 1 cans follow very quickly. Just get the extra cards now, plus extras are handy in case you dork up your fingerprints. You need two cards to send in and when I ordered from the ATF I thought they meant sets when I ordered. I asked for 3 thinking I would get 3 sets. Nope, got three cards.
Did you order the barley wine ones or qb? I hope the laterI just ordered steel baffles. I am currently using aluminum
Forgive my ignorance, but why would you want to add weight to the suppressor?I have 4 of the QB and ordered 4 of the barleywine baffles. I want to add weight to the suppressor
+1Forgive my ignorance, but why would you want to add weight to the suppressor?
Gotcha, just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something by pursuing lighter suppressors.To balance the rifle. The Vudoo has a much smaller barrel than CF competition rifle. Even with a front weight kit and a 20" Kukri it's rear heavy.
Are the Brandywine baffles sub par to the QB ones? What about the Brandywine Ti baffles?Did you order the barley wine ones or qb? I hope the later
Are the Brandywine baffles sub par to the QB ones? What about the Brandywine Ti baffles?
That's what I was thinking, confused myself when I read your post though.The Brandywine ones dont have the holes on the back of the baffle so I would say better then the QB ones.
I alsways stacked the baffles 180 from the next. Why, I don't know. I think I saw on a commercial can website that maker did it.Form 1 approval received yesterday for my Ti .22 kit. Didn't have a lot of time to try on different hosts, so just ran some through it with my GSG .22LR 1911. I indexed the scopes all in one direction at first, but found it shifted my POI almost 2" at 10 yards. Disassembled and indexed them 180° from each other and was punching out the bullseye with cheap bulk ammo. Very pleased with suppression and accuracy. Hoping it holds pattern with my other guns as well.

I selected UPS for shipping as well. They still shipped it USPS. It showed pre shipment the whole time even the day it was delivered by USPS. The day after I received it, the USPS app told me it was just delivered. Maybe yours is somewhat the same and it will show up tomorrow. You can do the prints yourself if you order them from the ATFLooks like UPS may have lose my jig. Was to receive today per the tracking #,but it has been in transit from Friday morning at the same location. Chat line is of no help and to late to try and call for an update. May have the paper work back before the jig. Any thoughts?

I'll be drilling mine this weekend. Sounds like the basic technique with a hand drill is to peck until it bites and then use low speed with good pressure and don't let it heat up?
I went ahead and emailed Brandywine after that post. Looks like SS will be shipping end of next week and they said “Ti parts are about 2-3 weeks out,” but I’m not sure if that means the materials are 2-3 weeks out or if the products will be sent in 2-3 weeks. Either way, I’m still waiting on my ATF permission slip to come back.Has anyone heard about the Brandywine TI .45 baffles shipping? I thought they said mid-March but understand if that got delayed. Haven’t gotten a shipping email yet..
Sounds like o should get my Ti K's around same time ATF gives me my slip. Now if QB would drop another 25% off code before then, that would be great! Now only thing left to decide is to bore fore 9mm or .45I went ahead and emailed Brandywine after that post.

Did you use the jig? I think someone had a similar issue and their cups were not properly seated in the jig.Got mine drilled out today.
I noticed that the holes are not perfectly center. It appears they all cheat left of center when the spoon is at 6 o'clock.
This is probably the worst one:
Not sure wth I did wrong.

Yes, I used the jig with a hand drill. Not sure what happened, but pretty sure I had the baffles seated correctly. Drilled into the face of the baffle like their video said.
I ended up having to use a round file and filing down sections of the baffle holes that cheated into an alignment rod.
Shot it Sunday with a MP .22 Compact, and other than a loud FRP, it sounded pretty decent considering that I now have probably close to a .30" butchered bore. Lol
I bet they weren't seated in there properly. I think up a acouple of posts someone said to rotate the cups 180* from each other. You should try that.
