I did a ton of research on the 762 SDN6. The mounting system sucks. Be aware that you may have some wiggle. Some report no change in accuracy due to the wiggle, some report a slight change. You can file the edge in front of the ratchet to get the wiggle to stop. Besides the mounting system, the suppressor rocks.

I do not have any experiences with the other two.

If you have the cash, look at Surefire SOCOM 762 suppressors. They are REALLY good.

i will look at the surefire wasnt't sure if they made it in 15x1mm threads but i will contact them .   gemtech and advanced armament contacted me back and said they make those models listed for the mr762 because hk has to be different than the rest.
thanks for the info

Have you checked out Griffin Armament?  I have demoed several of their suppressors and am thoroughly impressed.  One of their mounting systems has a taper lock which is pretty cool.  I would say that they build some of the best products that the industry can offer.

Agreed, I also got to shoot some of their stuff at RN4. I was really impressed.

yes i talked to austin  i did some testing of multiple cans i had that they wanted to hear compared to there checkmate qd  because of it he gave me a smoking deal on that checkmate.
unfortunately he told because of the thread size it doesnt sell well.  these are austins words to me as i respect him well in this industry .
We make 3 suppressors for 7.62mm firearms and I would reccommend a PHS 300 or a RSTA, but the 15x1MM thread we don't make any mounts for.  Sorry for the bad news on that.  The MR762 market is really super niche marketed- when we make mounts for stuff like that they sit around and waste a lot of potential for profitability.  Our 3/4x24 DTA mounts come to mind.  We sold 1 mount of a run of 100 in 8 months.  I guess there aren't as many DTA owners as I had hoped.

i understand completely his decision as you need to make money as far as i know i would be the one buyer for the 15x1mm
thanks again
