Do you want to protect your hearing? If so, the right decision is to buy a suppressor!

Im interested in trying a few out to see which one I might want to buy. I'm defenately getting at least one, but I'm not sure exactly how I should spend my money.

You should ask in the suppressor subforum. Most there will recommend a rimfire can first because it makes the biggest difference sound wise and they end up being used most often. I was able to shoot several at the shooters roundup at Ahlman' in August and was very impressed by the rimfire cans. The 300 blackout with subsonic was a close second.

I've been doing a lot of research and I'm really just looking for people willing tmeet up with me at a range to share their suppressed guns. |

Where are you located? West metro. Right now I'm thinking Spectre 2, Octane 9, and a Omega 762, but I'll try anything anyone is willing to share :) |

Ok - the next time I go out to Bills north I'll drop you a line in advance. I have the Omega 762, and use it on my RFB, RDB and AR15.

If you only want 3 cans, get the octane 45 instead of the 9

I vacation in MN each June and December. I live near Carlton and am a member of the Northwoods Range near Barnum. Anyone who wants to try out my modest collection of suppressed firearms is very welcome to do so. Mine are homemade cans, but I have them in 22lr, 5.56, .308 and others.

I shot two different suppressed AR's in the last two week, one was a 6.8 SPC and the other was an SBR .556, both had substantial blow back through the charging handle and ejection port, it made me re-think getting one for one of my ARs. The 6.8 was still surprisingly loud. Its good to get some hands on before making a purchase, just like anything else.

You can also add a a silicone strip along a regular CH and that will fix the blowback issue |
