Suppressors TBA M40A1 .22LR w/ TBAC 30-P

[OutlawTen5]

Just for the hell of it, I put the TBAC 30-P on a thread adapter and ran a few rounds thru my Texas Brigade Armory M40A1 .22LR using Aguila Super Extra 40gr and 60gr Solid Points and a few Federal Velocitor 40gr/1435fps.
The Aguila ammo ran quieter than an old Red Ryder BB gun. The .30 cal Thunder Beast took a lot of noise from the Federals too. I only fired 15 total rimfire rounds thru the suppressor.

My first photo ever taken w/ my feet in the pic!

FYI - you should not shoot rimfire thru a centerfire suppressor. Bad mojo for your can

Good to know.

I did a search here and found some more info on firing rimfire through a centerfire suppressor. I was mainly curious to find out how well it did work due to the larger dia. of the can.

Thanks again

Just wondering why you should not run rimfire through centerfire?

Because you get a lot of lead build up in the suppressor and you cannot dissasemble a centerfire can like you can a dedicated rimfire can. Also they are usually a lot more expensive and 22 ammo is not the best shooting ammo out there and a baffle strike would be a lot easier with that longer suppressor if for some reason a round didn't stabilize or something.
