You're missing the REX MG22 Extreme Duty 22 suppressor. I found on another site it says
Repairable High-Strength High-Temperature Silicone Rubber Cap Wipe (McMaster-Carr item 5787T63 and Punch 3427a17)
Not sure if those McMaster Part #'s are correct. Tried look on REX's website but when I go into the suppressor section on their page I get a 404 error. Very weird.

Amazon also has neoprene in bulk . Also you can search 'neoprene fender washers' and look for the size you need.

Bummer that red silicone isn't available in 70A. Did find some 70A 1/8" black neoprene on McMaster that I might give a try. Ordered a punch kit off Amazon to punch some wipes for the XM9 cans.

I've been using neoprene fender washers to replace the end cap wipe for the DA Wolfman I have.

Wish I could do the same for the XM9, but it needs some without a hole in the middle.

I’ve just standardized on neoprene and center X cutting for both the Aurora II and XM9 as well as a Station Six can.

What host gun do you use the Aurora II on? Been eyeing one for a G19 Gen 5 with a slide lock mod on it that we just got in at work.

So is it necessary to make a center hole for wipe in a DA wolfman?  

Was thinking of just skipping that step

Interested as well.

I cannot confirm that the SBR/neoprene on amazon is 70A - or any "A" for that mattter...

Does that really matter?

Dunno, learning here.  Will be buying the washers first but can see getting the strips or sheets, punches, and then cutting some down the road.  Seems like something easy top do on a cold/wet day...

Maybe.

Or try putting a piece of duct tape over the end of your can.

I’ve bought neoprene from McMaster. I think it’s listed at 70A.

Thank you.

I’m going to get some. My office has a durometer. I’ll test the OEM and the purchased. Thanks.

What did you find as far as hardness of the OEM rubber?

I have tested this.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00XLV9LCS?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
With 147gr it made a very noticeable pop, will try with 158gr to see if its any better.

I just got in some of this.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KM2Y3FY?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

Its listed as 70A but I still feel the factory material is just a bit harder. Also the stuff I got is reinforced, I didn't know that at the time of purchasing.
I'll test it out with 158gr and let you know.

Has anyone taken a Durometer to the factory material yet? I was thinking taking it to a rubber place that's here in town to see if they have anything comparable.

Just got in my hole punch, took a week and half to get but Etsy was the only place I could find one that is the correct size. For 9 bucks you really can't beat it either.
It's the perfect dimensions to the factory ones.
27MM

https://www.etsy.com/listing/1357518788/custom-round-steel-leather-cutting-die?click_key=b643f1ab9ddd85e7de175ef6dc0dd4566f0fecf8%3A1357518788&click_sum=b350b2f5&ref=hp_rv-1&pro=1&frs=1&variation0=3104771749

Still waiting on getting out there to test the material.
Anyone found a way to make nice neat X's in them yet? When i use a flat x-acto blade they are always off a bit.
Anyone try it without an X or maybe just a center punch hole?
