If I knew what you knew, I wouldn't buy this can.  So it was my mistake.  This can was the first and also the last from Griffin.

In the silencer market products are continuously improved until they are replaced with different models at a lot of companies because this is a competitive market that is constantly changing.  You don't get a fifth generation product when you buy a first generation product.  Often there is no option to upgrade a product.  At AAC there were almost a decade of 18Tooth M4-2000's sold in several different revisions before a single customer had a 51 tooth can.  Then a lot of customers complained about 51T mounts and a 91T mount model was released.    I bought a personal use 18 tooth can in 2005 that I waited 13 months to ship on a form 3 to get to the form 4 and had to modify 2 of 3 mounts on a lathe because they were SCAR contract over-runs with tapered thread shoulders, and wouldn't properly interface barrels.  2 of those 3 mounts were one click loose at all times.   At Silencer Co, the Sakers featured a mount that apparently hundreds of end users have had false positives with and shot the cans down range - some of them multiple times- and no design modifications I'm aware of occurred to my knowledge.  Several generations of buyers bought the cans and now the mount appears to be in the process of being or has been phased out.  

One of the company vehicles is a 2008 town and country van.  It gets 15 miles to the gallon.   One of the sales guys has the exact same model and engine vehicle in a 2015? and it gets ~24 miles per gallon.  I'm not really surprised.  Technology changed.  Chrysler made an ECO mode for an almost identical van in the same body style with a modified version of the same engine.   We since bought a 2016 Mercedes Sprinter- we drove it for a few tanks and realized it requires Diesel exhaust fluid or the computer will shut it off, and none of the gas stations have DEF pumps yet.  Really annoying to have to go buy jugs of DEF to pour into an under the hood tank in a fashion reminiscent to a coolant leak engineered into a brand new vehicle.  

When we released the Revolution series silencers, there were no modular silencers.  It was a new concept that hadn't been thought of yet.  A lot of customers didn't use loctite at all and were mechanically minded and had no problems at all.   Our use recommendations are always related to what will minimize the customers risk of baffle strikes and damage to the suppressor.  The thread sealant reduced the risk of loose components and kept hundreds of silencer end users from issues.  

The current model Revolution silencer reaching the market is the best Revolution silencer yet. It features a billet 7075-T6 tube.  You can fire some centerfire rifle cartridges through it in a third configuration.  It has tools and geometry the original model did not have.  There is a re-useable thread sealant used to allow the can to be broken down and reconfigured with greater ease.  There is an end baffle and a modified end cap (since the rev 2) and the cans are more quiet.  It reflects the fact that other companies came out with modular clones and we had to revisit the drawing board to keep the silencer market leading.  

Another valid point was that the revolution was typically more affordable than competing non modular suppressors.  The functions did not cost additional money to the customer.  

The current latest model essentially is a sportsman (hunting use centerfire lightweight)  and a modular pistol silencer.  The 7075 tube alone is a good reason to buy a revolution.

 Green0...Are you telling me it takes your engineer 4 generations to get it correct the fifth times??!!   Maybe you need to hire Our Engineer at this forum or BadgerArms who saw the ' no wrench compatible part' and its wrench.
 The crux of the problem is there are members here have had problems removing the part since there are no tools to use.  You guys should know more about the design, tools to remove parts, than the average users here.  Please don't shift the blame on us for your engineer's lack of experience.

 Give this man a beer.

 Seriously, man.  In a way, it was a complement to you.  Now, you have been here 14 yrs and don't understand those two sentences with 4 emoji as a joke, then I don't know what to tell you.

We were supplying the units with blue and red ND industries thread locker and red was recommended for submachine gun use.  We understood few end users have machine guns and also that that application involves higher temperatures and cyclical vibration.  We have dissassembled a few of the "stuck" red loctited units here for whatever reason they were here for service or inspection, but that process involves heating the knurled part and putting a channel lock pliers on the rear component and unscrewing it.  Sometimes we use a strap wrench on the tube while using the pliers on the other component.  It involves time and payroll and these costs weren't built into the upgrade price.

By nature silencers can get very stuck together.  Melted and vaporized lead and copper can braze parts together that were not fused.  

When we designed the product originally, we expected end users to try both configurations and use the one they liked in most cases- this would add a value in that they wouldn't have to look at small and large cans and make an obligatory purchasing decision in the blind and be stuck with the choice without ever trying both.  This is evidenced by our price which was equivalent to the non modular units on the market.
We had very positive initial field results- with Silencer Shop taking the can to an event and firing 10,000 rounds in a weekend, screwing around with it, having various people handle and review it etc without issue.
We didn't really get negative feedback for what seemed like over a year, or maybe 2+ years.  Comments such as those above helped us to understand some guys wanted to constantly change the configuration of the product.  Our 4th production cycle product integrated tools and re-useable thread sealant (5 times re-useable, so that still has to be re-applied infrequently), and our 5th production cycle (current) added the 7075 tube, 3rd configuration and some centerfire rifle ratings of the products.    Those 4th and 5th production cycle units were seeking to accomplish the design objective that the product be more readily constantly configured.  

Obviously it is impossible with silencers that involve melted and vaporized metals to guarantee perpetual configuration cycles, but it is possible to strongly encourage the possibility.  

One of the negative consequences of re-useable thread sealant now being used is that it has low prevailing torque.  So when the right hand thread is coupled with the left hand piston, tightening the silencer on the barrel of the pistol needs to be conducted with a grip that biases the rear of the silencer so that the left hand torque doesn't encourage the components to be loosened.  It is an operator headspace and timing issue that is surmounted by not being a mechanical idiot.
