Good point. I plan to only use the Pelican for transport. Mags stay in my safe. But while we're on the topic, what do you do to prevent these mags from rusting? I have some RemOil wipes that I can wipe them down on the outside pretty easily. Do you oil the inside of the mags, too? Is that possible without potentially harming the primers? Quote HistoryQuoted:

The SD is definitely a niche gun. Let it simmer. It will come to you.  It will happen... THIS thread is the one that did it for me. Once I saw the 3 of them sitting there, all pretty like... the more it grew on me. Don't fight it! Let it happen!

Welcome to the TPM Visitors club! It's not a big one! 
I finally made my second trip to TPM this morning and dropped off my HK94. I decided to go with the MP5-N conversion. We had already finished the paperwork for my rifle when I asked them what suppressor they recommended for the MP5-N. One thing led to another, and now I have two Form 4s to file. They had a Gemtech Multimount (with a 1/2 - 28 mount) in stock. Given the price and the ability to work with a single local dealer for both the SBR conversion and the suppressor, I decided to pull the trigger on the Gemtech. I can't even say the wait has begun yet, because I still need to get my fingerprints before I can submit the Form 4s. Hopefully I'll be able to bring them home before next summer. |

They don't have any complete MP5SD's in stock and are at about a 5 month lead time right now. They have plenty of SD can's ready for form 3 or 4's. Their can will work with the Omega upper so long as it is the regular thread pattern as a factory SD. |

So I have accumulated 3 SD cans - TPM, KAC & B&T Here are specs:
TPM - Length = 12 1/8", Diameter = 1.52", Weight = 15.46 KAC - Length = 11 7/8", Diameter = 1.38", Weight = 20.14 B&T - Length = 12", Diameter = 1.58", Weight = 17.18 As you would expect, the KAC can is built like a tank and could double as sledge hammer. The B&T is a stout can with no external welds, and the TPM can is the only one that comes apart for cleaning. The knurling on the TPM can makes it easy to spin on/off. Sound wise they are all very similar to the ear. I have not metered any of them, and would need one to differentiate as their is no obvious difference. Ammo was PMC/115 or Blaser/115. As with most HK roller lock weapon, using the correct locking piece is crucial to holding the breech closed till gases have gone out the BBL. Too early an unlock will make it very loud to the ear.

I personally would like to see price info added. Tpm is cheapest. KAC is about the 2x the cost of TPM, and B&T is about 1.5x cost of TPM.
As a 4th horse for the race I would add RCMs can at $500. |

Suppresses great, hard to complain about any of it. Basic "freeze-plug" baffle design, but with ported barrel and internal volume, baffle design is forgiving. May look into TPM later, as post-41F funds improve. |

Renegade, thanks for the comparison. I can't quite tell from your pictures: Does the TPM can still have the short flange that protrudes from the rear of the can where it threads onto the barrel, or does it sit flush now and engage the O-ring?

Just to add to the discussion. I've been talking with Joe from Curtis Tactical and he also makes an SD can. It's very similar in design to the integral MPX can that has photos floating around.
The price I was quoted was under $900 which makes it more expensive than the TPM can but it does have stainless steel baffles and a shielded design. |

I'd like to see Griffin Armament make an SD can. I think they could strike a very good balance between durability and weight. My only concern with TPM's can is with it being aluminum, but I already know it's going to be a gun that I break down for cleaning after every trip to the range. It's by far the lightest SD can I've held, so I think it's worth it.

I have had the B&T can the longest, and like it the most. I will probably like the TPM can the most once I start using it. I would like to see a "K" version that is a few inches shorter. The knurling on the TPM can is a must, everyone should do that. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Favorite? Critiques if a 4th party was to jump in and build one? Any notable changes you would make? I have had the B&T can the longest, and like it the most.

I would love to have a good SD can about 4" shorter, would be badass. |

Form 3 cleared. My SD arrives in state tomorrow. Sucks that it took that long...but that's good news nonetheless. We need pics when you visit.
Is your dealer at a place where you can shoot while you wait? I just checked and I'm 5 months in on my SD, 3.5 months on my Omega 9K, and awaiting Form 3 for my Sten. I might lose my mind soon. |
