Did some torture testing of a suppressor on a shrike the other day.

I tried to reload it as HD but not sure it improved the quality.

A little smoke, hardly a "torture test"

I'm very interested in any recommendations based on real hands-on experience for a suppressor that can handle sustained automatic fire from a Shrike. I realize that such a can would not be the quietest or the lightest weight. Thanks okay.

Thanks in advance,

Amphib on here (that make the govnah gas block) has quite a few videos of them running the hell out of a specwar. It seems to hold up well for them.

I have an American Manufacturing XXX Warrior built by Mike Klos that has held up just fine to high volume full auto fire over approx. the past decade. Its previous toil in life prior to the Shrike's arrival was being tortured via Beta-C drums.

Same here with the Triple-X Warrior.

I managed to smoke the paint job, but the can holds up just fine.

I'm trying out a bump fire stock here. Other than the one hammer-follow failure, it was just fine.

I have a aac 762sd that I use for suppressed f/a firing, I would recommend that.

I use it with beta drums, corrosive 5.54 and 90 rd ak drums.

I tried it on a beltfed, but I don't like fucking with the gas systems on them and don't want to beat them up.

using cans on beltfeds is a waste imo

I ran multiple 100 round belts through my shrike with a 7.62 Stainless YHM Phantom. That can is a tank.

I've had great luck using my old AWC Optima can for FA use as well as my new AAC M4 2000. Also have the SDN can for the .308 but have not tried it on the Shrike.

While some may think its a waste on a belt gun, my take is that some gas that comes back seems to help with the operation of some guns that other wise might have an issue. YMMV
