If you mean Virtus 6.75" instead of Rattler 5.5", its not too late to grab a 6.75" barrel for your Rattler. Since you're using the Virtus SD handguard with the adapter you'll still be able to reach the 6.75" gas valve. |

There is more involved in it than just the barrel. What I mean is I would pick the virtus upper/barrel and the compatibility that brings in general.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Kublah: There is more involved in it than just the barrel. What I mean is I would pick the virtus upper/barrel and the compatibility that brings in general. I thought about going this route with my Rattler but I ended up with more MCX's all together. If in this position I wouldn't add the barrel, rather I would just get the desired VIRTUS upper to toss on. Honestly by then you'd also have an adapter and trigger so you may as well throw it on an AR lower and just have another gun all together! Not sure why but the Rattler excels at being the Rattler! I don't want to change it lol. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By SpyHawk: Is it quieter than the SLH300 or SLH762? I think the SLH300 is still quieter. But it is at least almost 1.5x longer and 4 ounces heavier. Still one of my favorite cans. Everything in life is about balance. My law of Conservation of Everything. Subtract somewhere, add somewhere else. |

I ordered last October as well and I haven’t been able to reach them either. A guy on Reddit got in touch with him and he said they should be shipping end of July and that this batch was slower because less people ordered them and they had a delay getting aluminum from England. I am really hoping we get our handguards!

I am really hoping we get our handguards! My last pre-order back in 2021 took over 8.5 months to receive. It’s a long lead time but they do quote 6-9 months up front. I hope you get yours soon! ETA: It was 8 months 26 days.

Tbh, I was actually surprised when it showed up. Figured it was a gamble to begin with. He was more active on IG back then and responded to the couple emails I sent (not related to timeline, just adding stuff to the order). |

The reason cans feel so heavy on the gun is because they are all the way out on the end and have more leverage against you. |

I am coming from an 18" bull barrel with 3" comp on a 12.5 pound rifle. The rattler already feels much lighter by comparison, so I'm not bitching too much |

I need to buy one for my Rattler, I've been looking at a Q suppressor. I really hate the process of buying suppressors. I bought one last month using SilencerShop for my MP K-Pistol, and it still hasn't been certified. It'll be 2025 before I get the damned thing. |
