I have a suppressed barrel for my shrike. Its one of the 12" adjustible ones with a American Manufacturer XXX warrior on it.
Combination works just fine for me.

Can you tell if there is more or less gas that comes back at you?

I dont own a shrike so im not sure if its a direct impingement like the M16 or if its a piston rod, either way you will have some increase in pressure with the suppressor. I was always under the impression the issue with shrike was the links not the back pressure. FWIW using mil spec ammo is another way to make sure you have high pressures. |

The Triple X can increases pressure less than most. It has a .38 caliber bore so it can take full auto drum and belt dumps well. I like mine, not real quiet but its trade-offs, like everything in life.

My son "borrowed" my Shrike to test suppressor prototypes ... while before it preferred M855, now it'll run 193, or almost any 5.56. So I'd say the additional back pressure definitely helps.

I have a 12.5" upper, I've been meaning to try out my suppressor on it. |

As others have mentioned the XXX Warrior has an overly large bore aperature and makes up for the larger bore aperature with greater internal volume, so the gas back blast isnt all that bad. From a ROF perspective, my suppressed barrel seems to run about the same if not a touch slower as you get a more consistent gas push back into the piston vs. a shorter but larger blast to the piston without the can. |

My Shrike is set up just the same with the shorty adjustable barrel and one of Mikes XXX cans. Seems to run about the same as using the standard 16 inch barrel. Gas blowback is negligible.
