I've got a bunch of old AAC cans I had HUB converted and two different Saker's... so I'm not new to cans. These are all long and heavy high backpressure suppressors with QD mount adapters (keymo) Looking for a couple lightweight (Ti preferably) low backpressure cans that are direct thread, prefer HUB with a direct thread adapter. I'd like one for my 6 ARC G$ 18" Stratomatch rifle and one for a lightweight 5.56 10" SBR. What's the latest hotness boys? -ZA |

Fox Creek Arms Probably haven't heard that brand before, but previously he was JR Machine Pro with excellent KAC clone form 1 kits. Hub with direct thread, titanium, lots of options. I have one, excellent tone and not high backpressure |

On my 12.5" 6ARC so far I have tried the Echocore Sector 556 that is rated for 6ARC. I'll be trying the Huxwrx Ventum 762 on it soon. Ultimately I'll put a Surefire SOCOM6 Mini4 on it once the paperwork clears. I'm waiting on a 22" MK12 that will wear the OCL OCM6. |

I’d skip the Hux 556K. Low backpressure, but sound isn’t great. The other cans listed are going to be a lot better on sound and almost as low on backpressure. |

I have been very happy with my CRS3 KAC suppressor. Objectively, the backpressure is much reduced, with FA fire rate being within 1.6% that of unsuppressed, the weight is a bit heavier but worth it for what you get, IMO (excellent QD, excellent performance). Mine weighs 15.9oz. The 3P mount is 2.3oz. It absolutely smothers flash, showing less signature than a 3 prong KAC FH under NVG looking toward the muzzle, with no real meaningful FRF. On my KS3, zero shift from suppressed to unsuppressed at 100 yards is about 0.3mrad. This is with a lightweight CHF CL barrel. I have 2 KS3's and matching CRS3's and the shift is similar between the two, and varies more between ammunition type than anything, as browntip shows a shift of 0.3mrad, while LE556T4 shows minimal to no shift. Sound wise, it does very well, with Silencer Summit showing it to have a sound signature at the MIL 1m standard location averaged L/R, of 138.8dB, as compared to the RC2 at 137.8dB and the AAC M4-2000 18T at 137.5dB, on a 16" carbine. The Flow 556Ti had a signature of 140.1 dB, and the HRT5K, 140.7dB. The Polonium K registered 142.6dB. It is in perfectly good company for sound attenuation. https://thunderbeastarms.com/sound/consolidated/ Unsuppressed: Attached File Suppressed: Attached File Visual signature testing: Attached File |
