Is there a question?
This is often discussed every year at SHOT show. Everyone knows what they're getting themselves into |

Anything designed in the last 10 years really is still going to be towards the top of the list IMHO.
I mean my AAC M4-2000 mod 8 which was redesigned in 2008 is still a solid performer. I wouldn't get wrapped around having to have the latest greatest in silencers. Not with the laws being the way they are |

Your splitting hairs. There are a ton a great cans that will continue to be great on the market currently. You'll always be chasing in this game.

Wait times are under 5-6mo now so not much is going to change except new product announcements here and there.
It seems most were answered during this years SHOT show. |

This was more of an issue when wait times were >1yr. Now you can have the latest and greatest before the next SHOT show even rolls around. And (to a large extent) gone are the days of game-changing sound performance leaps. The can you buy in 2015 will probably be a solid performer in 2018. Something a little lighter, or a little smaller, or a little quieter will have come along, but you will still be satisfied with your purchase.

Was there a thread on the suppressor forum that I missed specifically talking about suppressors and SHOT show 2015? I wanted to start a thread about this but didnt want to catch heat.

Do you get pissed off when you buy a car but a new better model comes out before you are finished paying it off?
Things will continually evolve and you cant hold it against the industry or company for continuing R&D. Buy the best can available. And as another poster above said, the benefits are becoming increasingly small with each new generation of can. |

I thought this thread was going to cover why the wait times are so long even with the amount of technology available that would speed up the process.

I don't really care about the technology. I'm upset by seeing the same can for $100 less before I get it in my hand but that's the game.

I personally don't see any new innovation as far as silencers. They are all the same other than material, mounting systems and the baffle stack up.

Just look at the Salvo. |

JJFU is already working on something new.
Edit: since this isn't GD, I'll add that the post above is sarcastic towards JJFU. I wouldn't worry about waiting for latest and greatest. These are mufflers, not microelectronics. |

If it matters, I sort of panic-bought my 762SD thinking 18T was the end-all mounting system. By the time it was approved, 51T was already out. At least I go in on the tail-end of AAC's "one free mount with every can" deal - that saved me about $90. OP: if you are worried about it, just get something like a Saker due to its versatility. |
