Just how quiet are the SD cans now a days?
Would it be much quieter than my MP5K with 147 subs suppressed? I'm really contemplating getting one |

yeah much quieter. TPM sounds like the one to roll with from this thread. I'm staring at MP5SD parts kits right now

I bet you can buy one from TPM cheaper than buying the parts kit and sending it to them. My SD is definitely quieter than my K with 147s. And incredibly soft shooting. But its more about the adventure between than anything. I would love to make my own SD, not the can to be clear, but the gun itself. In fact if I had a lathe Id likely just do my own can, one day perhaps. |

Have any of you used the welding anti-spatter spray on your internals? Does it work? Because I know when I get the call I am going to run a couple of mags through my TPM can at my dealer's range.
Should I run the spray first or is the fouling from a couple of mags not that bad? I already bought a pin spanner. |

So turns out the poor accuracy from the Omega/TPM combo was user error. Took it back to the range today and was putting decent groups downrange.

I will find out in a few months how well mine shoots. |

Thinking about adding an SD to the stable....
Does anyone have real world data of actual velocity loss with 124gr NATO and/or 147gr commercial loads? Maybe even 124gr +P. I know this sounds like a silly request but I have a "use" for this setup and I can't afford to lose too much velocity. I'm looking really hard at the Omega SD upper and a TPM can. |

I get 975 fps with 124 NATO. 147 varies a lot with brand, as low as 850 to 1000.

I found some Food Grade Silicone in a spray can and am inclined to use that instead of welding anti-spatter spray.
I read something years ago about using welding anti-spatter in suppressors and the gases that are released due to the heat and pressures involved in such use which leads me to believe that the silicone is safer. Have used the silicone in my .22 cal. rimfire suppressors and it works fine especially when it came to cleaning them. Would welcome any additional info on anti-spatter usage. |

I don't have data on hand, and I dont have time to go looking for it, but I want to say it was something like 200/fps with 124gr NATO when the SD was developed? Not 100% sure, but for some reason that 200/fps number sticks out in my mind.  --- I'll definitely share my results.
