Ive shot thousands of rounds through my Trek-T in full auto with no issue. Its actually a very tough suppressor. Its a great suppressor but I went with a lighter shorter suppressor and the Trek-T has been retired to plinking on misc uppers which rarely get shot. Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
I've a Gemtech TREK-T mounted on a 10.5" heavy profile barrel. Two drops of blue torque retention compound on the threads. With about 500 rounds fired, no sign of back off. That said, as the TREK-T is not meant for extended full auto fire, I do not shoot it that way. An unsuppressed barrel upper gets that experience. MHO, YMMV, et cetera. Ive shot thousands of rounds through my Trek-T in full auto with no issue. Its actually a very tough suppressor. Its a great suppressor but I went with a lighter shorter suppressor and the Trek-T has been retired to plinking on misc uppers which rarely get shot. Out of curiosity what can replaced your Trek-T? |

Ever have issues with it loosening while firing? I constantly have to tighten my screw on pistol cans, so much so that it turned me off from ever buying a screw on centerfire rifle can. Interestingly enough, my Triple-X always stays on tight, unlike many of my other cans. Mine's also from a while ago. I bought it in 2008, but it was "new-old stock" that had been sitting in someone's inventory for a while. I posted an X-Ray of it somewhere, and Mike indicated it was one of the older versions of that can. If I'm worried and I want some extra insurance, I just use a couple of wraps of teflon tape around the barrel threads before threading the can on. It's overkill for most of what I do with it - semi-auto .223, and the occasional supersonic .300 Whisper. |
