On a 1.5 I would do .625, .625, the rest .5 until the last one at .375. Quote HistoryQuoted:

So with no ETA in the larger Talon tubes how would this stack do with the standard 1.5 OD Raven tubes? 7”. @Chewbacca And the first .625 spacer is off the 2” step? |

Just opened up the new tubes and baffles.
Baffles never posted, yet they said sold out quickly. Was hitting refresh from 855-915! |

Yup. I’m going to start looking for parts elsewhere.

Just to confirm - you didn’t clip your stepped cones, is that right?

So I've been thinking about this for a while. If you were to use something like a single chamber brake such as the ones below from dead air and YHM, you would have them well inside the 2" reinforced section which would allow you to place a blast baffle directly on the integral lip. This would possibly allow an additional baffle in the same length tube. Has anyone tried this or have any comments to offer on this?

Quote HistoryQuoted:
That's how I built my first can. I used a griffin mini brake and have the first baffle a 1/8" from the end of the brake. First-round-pop is minimal but gas blowback is more noticeable vs when I shift the spacers around and add another half inch to the blast chamber. I had to stack two baffles directly on top of each other to test it, so it's the equivalent of losing 1 baffle. The sound honestly didn't sound much different to my ears. FRP is more noticeable with the larger blast chamber, but gas to the face is decreased when shooting slow. I can't tell the difference with rapid fire. Quote HistoryQuoted:

So I did the identical build just as @chewbacca recommended. Finally got to try it today and WOW. He's not kidding. Sounds identical to the Omega 300. The only difference I did from his is go with a Key Mo mount. Only got to shoot 200 rounds before it got dark, 100 from a B&T APC223 and 100 from a Mk18mod1 build and did outstandingly. Too bad Maverick Precision discontinued the Talon series. I couldn't be happier with this. I will try to get a decibel meter and run comparisons.

They did say they're bringing back the talon series in an email, but it will be months before it's setup. I just need the 7" tube and I can build mine. Sucks to have to wait 3-4 months when I have all of the parts ready now.  Attached File |

In my opinion they are doing a terrible job at selling things by having limited releases of things if you read the last pre-release email they are going to have baffles
only in titanium then the stainless ones will come out God knows when later... and tubes sometime after that. If it's going to take you a year to piece together the parts you want you might as well go with a factory built form 4 can |

The new mpatch shoes are going to be available for order later today which I only know because I'm on a email list. the mpatch shoes are coming out and I send out a email to those that are waiting And they come out only in size 9, I wear size 12, kinda dissuades me as potential customer |

This is still what you’d recommend after your buddies build? And the first .625 spacer is off the 2” step? I stupidly bought everything thinking OP was referring to Raven (1.5OD) and not the Talon (1.625OD).. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: That should still work well. There have been some guys that built Ravens with that layout on the Form1 board and are very happy. I’m getting 3.8” stack for spacers on the Talon and 4.125” for the raven spacer stack. |
