I just bought a 45 Tirant 
What do I need now to shoot it on a Glock 19, M&P9 and a 1911? Pistons in the appropriate thread pitches. That's it. |

My wife and I both have TiRant 9's, and I have an SPR/M4.
It was depressing to hear all the chatter about AAC becoming nothing more than a name on shell of a company it used to be. Glad to here things have turned around. I hope you are able to rebuild the brand image that you once had. There was pride in being an AAC owner, and I did not want to see you get "Bushmastered". I had kind of written you guys off, and no longer considered AAC as my 1st choice manufacturer. I currently have a SilencerCo in jail now, but look forward to seeing top level products from AAC in the future. Thanks for posting. |

I totally agree. The Illusion is one of the most underrated pistol cans out there. It's light, slim, and actually facilitates use of most standard sights. I love the way the Osprey 9 sounds, but the Illusion is a better overall take on the eccentric concept, IMO. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Or other 90T options?
I have a SR7 and a few rifles outfitted with 90T mounts. I'd like either a compact 5.56 can (similar to Mini) or a real effective 5.56 can (similar to M4-2000). There just isn't enough difference between the SR5 and SR7 when used on 5.56 to justify buying the SR5. |

That would be easy to change to a J-shaped pin with a recess for the J to go into. It would allow just enough pin to stick out so you could grab it but being bent over it would be round so it wouldn't snag anything. Even a roll pin that was long enough to hang out of the end to be grabbed by some pliers. |

Any chance of ever having an upgrade program for older 18T cans to the 51T mount? I hardly use mine anymore since when the springs wear out I have to send it back in. It's not your guys' fault I know but it is very annoying. I recently laid the coin down for an M16. I have an 18t 762SD and asked AAC if it was full auto rated. They replied that it was not. The next thing I read in the email was interesting to say the least. They informed me that if the can I had was not plug welded, they could upgrade the baffles to Inconel and change out the 18t mount to the 51t mount for $250. It would also be full auto rated. My can is on the way back to them now. This should be posted somewhere so all of those lonely 18t cans can come out and play. Did you guys ever get any info or action on this ? |

Looks nice and not overly stylized. Is AAC planning on any additional unveils at the show? I'm probably not in the minority on the suppressor forum but when I want to shield myself from muzzle blast I install a suppressor! It seems odd to purchase a muzzle brake to then turn around and purchase a cover for it. I'm grasping for a legitimate reason to purchase this for it's intended function, any help? Will this sell to mostly people without suppressors? Is it a product of goofy laws as the only way to offer non-suppressor suppressor parts?
Also, I'm not knocking AAC as the other major manufacturers also offer these. |

That's more along the lines of what I was thinking. These are the mounts my contact made for legacy SWR cans, including one in M18. Obviously change the external threads to be internal to attach to the Ti-Rant tube...but it gives an idea. Wouldn't have to worry about material being too thin in that case. Not really expecting an AAC endorsement of it, just curious. If anybody wants to give it a shot, let me know and I'll send you the guy's info. ETA: oops...forgot to add the pic

No - it originally was never meant to be
The Ti-Rant 45 was originally sealed to adhere the specifics of the Navy contract as to which it was awarded. It was then offered to the civilian market in the same configuration as specified by the Navy at the time. We do not have any sort of trade in, upgrade or jailbreak option available. HOWEVER if you have any issues with performance or functionality we have a lifetime warranty and will certainly take care of any issues if they come up.
