Interested to see how/if they addressed the “3d cans can’t be repaired” issue
View Quote

hopefully they tackled this issue like how my mod9 is constructed: the booster housing is serialized and the main tube threads into it. yes, its one more piece to come loose and add to tolerance stacking but it solves my 'cant be repaired gripe' when it comes to 3d printed stuff.

i will say this teaser seemed to all have us guessing. i was for sure convinced they weren't going to do a 50 cal can and then I was tricked into thinking they were.

for the sake of clarity, this is a can with a booster correct? since they already have the wolfman (and the odessa is lame, IMO), I'm assuming yes.

Palm Beach Tactical on Instagram posted a photo of the exterior and interior.  

@atlmike - if you are out there, I spotted your signature design fingerprint all over the exterior of this silencer and it looks awesome.  I bet the endcap is hand-removable, huh?  Also, the amount of surface area in the "stack" (now I guess we say "core?") is super exciting.  

What a time to be alive!!!!

If these baffles are half as good as the crackers, they may really be on to something..... Now that they have this not-Wolfman intro'd into the lineup alongside their Wolfman, I'm hoping the Nomax 33 is next up to bat.

Seems likely that DA told us what to expect in terms of the order of upcoming cans with those insta posts: 9mm > .338 > .45 (probably carbine can) > .50 bmg > 12 ga.

Do the baffles come out for cleaning?  Discrete baffles or is each stack monolithic?  For cast lead if the stack doesn’t come out and the tube is 7075 I’d assume you can’t use the dip, CLR, or ultrasonic.

That being the case, & that Al, SS, & Ti comprise the materials, 1 of the modular segments - which I presume to be the smaller end module - will be "undippable" Al & challenging to clean with that baffle profile.

Well, cast bullets are a niche anyway, and perhaps whatever component is 7075 aluminum is removable (front cap maybe).  Seems like it’s more of a lightweight rifle can with pistol capability.

Both the front and rear modules of the Mojave 9 are entirely printed from Grade 5 Titanium, inside and out. The outer surfaces and the inner surfaces appear to be different materials because we turn and contour the exterior prior to blast and coating. We did this so that people would see the usual smooth outer surface that they are accustomed to seeing with a silencer made the old-fashioned way from machined baffles placed in a tube. The splines are a printed feature. If you look at the troughs in between the splines on the outside of the rear module, you can still see some of the as-printed finish.

There are two 7075 components on Mojave; the front end cap, and the back cap that contains the piston and piston spring. We've added a nitrided stainless insert to the back cap so the piston rides in a steel bore rather than aluminum.

All of the booster parts are stainless steel. Mojave uses Odessa pistons with a 3/4" shank and a 1" head.

In the event of damage to the rear module, there is a repair method in place that involves removal of the serialized area on the rear of the silencer that contains the interface threads for the booster, and welding it to a printed replacement rear module specifically designed for repair purposes.

The Mojave has very good back pressure characteristics and produces a really nice, earthy tone.

Sounds like CGS and DA are both working on basically similar 9mm things.

I do like the smooth outside cosmetic features of the DA can.

@Atlmike
Is this one supposed to be compatible with Ghost/Wolfman boosters and 3-lugs?

Yep. All the P-Series goodies that work with Ghost will fit in Mojave. KeyMicro, 3-Lug, Direct thread, P-Series Xeno.

thanks for answering the two questions i had. if i do end up getting one, i will swap out the piston to an ez lok one (assuming i can get it to work on my mod9).

good on ya for making the can repairable. i know it can be done with printed stuff, just requires some forethought (something i wish hux did with their 556k).

the print/design looks gorgeous.

Dumb question:

@mageever

It says it's rated for 300BO supers (semi-auto). Aren't 300BO super and 7.62x39 basically the same thing, heat, pressure and power wise?

And if 300BO supers, I wonder why not 5.56?

Link Posted: 1/19/2023 8:17:05 PM EDT
[#39]
300 BLK is designed to get a near complete propellant burn out of a short barrel. Most 7.62 x 39 and 5.56 is not. Our concern is that you’ll prematurely erode your blast baffle from unburied propellant with a diet of 7.62 x 39 and 5.56.

5.56 muzzle energy of 1250 ft-lbs is way below the 1900 ft-lb rating and is the caliber most people worry about gas blowback and find the sharp tone of many suppressors annoying.  Just trying to see where it fits and what the trade-offs are.

I don't know that we'll define it much further, but since you can't always rely on customers understanding how erosive 5.56 is and there will always be someone willing to prove that things can be broken (you know, for internet points), we may restrict 5.56 or put limits on it.  Like, if you think you should run a pistol/subgun/light duty rifle can hardcore on and SBR while mag dumping into trash, then we may need to work on some language.  Frankly, if you're buying this for 5.56, you're doing it wrong.
