As the main thread about the Dead Air Sierra 5 seems to have gotten quite bloated and covers lots of different topics (has devolved into mud-slinging at times) I thought it may be helpful to have one that is focused only on input from owner's of this can who either have a cleared F4 and have used theirs, or have had conjugal visits with theirs while waiting for theirs to clear, and can give their experience with the known issues with this can, or lack thereof, whatever your case may be.
If possible, it would be nice to keep this focused to just does your can appear good to go, or has it had issues? If so, what are the issues, have you contacted DA, what have they done/are doing to fix it? Also, if we could just focus on this instead of technical discussions (tone, decibel levels, back-pressure, etc.) it might be helpful to people like myself (who have one of these in jail and don't have the ability to shoot it but am trying to decide how worried I should be while I wait) or people who are considering getting one. I hope I'm not the only one who found the main thread tedious to sift through when looking for very specific info on these issues with this can. |

View Quote You're obviously not reading enough into the comments all over this board. I have 2 Masks, a Primal and a Wolverine. I bought 2 Sierra 5's as soon as they hit the market. I'm not your best customer, but I've bought 6 cans from you. You belittle us when we're frustrated and don't have answers for us. All we can do is shoot your product that may or may not be defective? All we can do is maybe harm ourselves or our guns? You have a clear issue with your product and you need to issue a recall. I'm not shooting my Sierra 5's because of this issue. You need a program where the cans can be sent in, checked for proper manufacturing and repaired if needed. Anything less than that is unacceptable given the publicity your company is getting over this. Your snide comments have not impressed me and leave me wondering why I'd ever buy a product from you again. You claiming victim status when you've delivered us a poor product for our hard earned money and wait time is simply unacceptable. You sell me a likely poorly made product that will see massive pressure, you won't inspect it to see if it's safe or not and you're the poor guy who the trolls are being mean to? You can't be serious. The poll needs an option for: "I'm not shooting mine because I don't trust it" |

That number could change as the poll ages of course, and whether it’s up or down remains to be seen. The issue itself may be an easy fix if the failure isn’t catastrophic enough to damage the serial plate or the host weapon, but 40%? That should give ANYONE pause |

Serial 16X
Started rattling at around 200rds. Sent back June 20. No word from DA and no ETA. Liked the can before it broke. |

I wouldn't stand in front of a piss-filled supersoaker. Does that make it a good pistol? - Caboose314
I thought I was covered for 22 cans, but the NFAids is a bitch when it mutates - themagikbullet |
I took the S5 to the range today. Silencers I compared it to:
Saker 5.56K YHM ResK Saker 7.62 All wearing Griffin’s Plan A adapters. Host was a 11.5 BCM upper with a Gemtech suppressed BCG. Sound rated according to my buddies: 1)Sierra 2)Saker 5.56K 3)Saker 7.62 4)ResK I shot less than 200 rounds. I warmed it up a few times to test it (not glowing just a decent cadence for one mag then the gun would set for 20-30 minutes while we shot silenced 22s) and sure enough it is rattling now. I can move the blast baffle with my finger. I’ve got three DA cans and two have failed me. Wolf 9SD was RMA’d due to a baffle strike. So 66% of my DA silencers have had issues. As a matter of fact, the only two silencers that I’ve ever had issues with were Dead Air. Edited to sound less snarky. Edit2: SN 017xx |
|
|
SN 26xx
Rattles at 180 rounds I’ll contact DA and see what they say. Will update here. ETA: host was a 16” barrel, semi auto, no glowing suppressor. 2nd edit, I used a screwdriver this morning to see if I could tell what was loose by doing some poking and prodding, I found it, the end cap was loose, so no loose baffle here. I’ll retract my loose baffle vote if possible. Will not be contacting DA at this time. Could use a spanner wrench to tighten end cap though. |

Video of my experience. I recorded a friend shooting and couldn’t really tell the difference in sound between the two 5.56 K silencers. Both sound really good to me. I always wear ears with rifle calibers and PCCs so that makes it more challenging to discern any difference.
The Dead Air Rattler! Video isn’t playing anymore. I’ll try to fix it at some point. Fixed |

Companies do it every day, and I bet you’ll struggle to find a company in this space that makes every single part in-house. The Sierra 5 failure isn’t the problem here. The problem is DA’s handling of it. DA makes great products and has a history of solid customer service. But, for some reason, when the S5 problem hit, they lost their minds and took the worst of all possible approaches. After being active on social media and engaged with their customers, they went nearly radio-silent and, then, when Todd finally started chiming back in here and on Reddit, he took a really aggressive tone, calling anyone who said anything negative a “bully”, accused then of being “mean to him”, and flat out lied about well customer service was working and that silencers were being repaired “quickly”. Almost a year into this, and they’re still mum about a serial range or their plans to address it. So far, their only approach has been to tell people to shoot it and see, and send it in for a “quick” repair when it fails. The first half of that is putting the costs of the should-be recall diagnostics onto their customers, and the second half is just a lie. This whole debacle is not exemplary of Dead Air. They’re a much better company than this. But, somehow, they just encountered an issue and proceeded to lose their shit over it. It’s ok to step on your dick now and then. It’s not ok to stand on it. |

I waited 272 days for my Sierra to clear and the baffles let go after the first 140 rounds. The RMA was easy, but what’s most concerning is the lack of response from Dead Air about the repair time. SN: 011XX
They’ve had my can 83 days now, 90 total since I mailed it out, and there’s no return date in sight. Since the end of May I’ve sent 4 emails and an Instagram DM all spaced a couple weeks apart just asking for an update. Waiting this long after the initial wait, especially with the radio silence, is horrible customer service. I used to be a DA fan boy and this is my fourth can of theirs. |

For those of you looking for a timeline of when your suppressors will be returned, I just got my Sandman-S back.
Granted it’s not a Sierra 5 so I don’t know if there’s any difference but my can took 109 days from when it was received to when I got the email with UPS tracking info coming back. There was no communication from DA other than the RMA at the beginning and a quick email in between that didn’t have any info about anything or anything saying the repair was complete and coming back. Strictly the UPS tracking email from UPS. Once I received the suppressor back it had an envelope with paperwork inside with the details of the repair. It just said it was a strike and after the repair it passed the tests. I did email DA on 6/30/23 (the day I got my suppressor back) because I sent in the can with the 5.56 flash hider end cap and got it back with the standard 30 cal endcap. I have not heard anything back yet. I’d like the cap back because there was no damage to it. |

As a small SOT that exclusively sells suppressors I heavily value my reputation to deliver quality cans to my customers. I personally own Sandman's and have had an awesome experience with them over the years - running them hard. Having said that, there is no way I would feel comfortable selling Dead Air right now. I sincerely hope they fix this problem and issue a statement clearing EVERYTHING up. Until then, I will not be purchasing any Dead Air products and selling them to my customers - it's just not worth it.

I have a Sierra 5 “in jail” only been waiting for 2 months so far so I’m guessing I’ll be lucky to have it in my hands by Christmas.
It’s not my intention to add any hostility to this discussion with my inquiry so my sincere apologies if that happens. Assuming the newest Sierra 5 suppressors are being manufactured properly, at some point the defects were noticed and corrected and anything made after that time we could assume is unaffected. I’m curious, is there an actual serial number or manufacture date where we know the issue had been corrected? |
