You’re doing yourself a disservice to not include a Nyx in consideration

Lighter, tougher but not more modular would be Lithium 9

Not modular but I love my Warlock II. I wish I could find another Specter II. It’s a shame they’re no longer in production.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Lighter, tougher but not more modular would be Lithium 9 This is a 22 thread. The can you posted is for PCCs. OP, with aluminum you are really limited with your cleaning methods. I think the main one is soda blasting (which requires equipment). I generally tend to avoid aluminum rim fire cans as ill gladly take a few oz penalty for many more cleaning options. |

I generally tend to avoid aluminum rim fire cans as ill gladly take a few oz penalty for many more cleaning options. Use the SS or TI cans for the high round count shooting. Use the ultra lightweight AL can when you want something with better balance, or maybe on a lightweight polymer gun. Just clean it regularly and don't let the crap build up. It's good to have options. |

I’ve shot my Oculus and Mustang back to back using my MKIV Tactical’s and to my ears the Mustang is a hair quieter. My buddy couldn’t tell a difference though and said they sounded the same after shooting both
 I have enough heavy duty 22 cans and now I prefer lightweight ones on my pistols. That’s why I decided to get 2 Mustang’s. The aluminum baffles aren’t that big of a deal to clean. I lightly coat them with welding anti splatter gel and most of the crud wipe right off when it’s time to clean them. My Nyx Mod 1 was just approved yesterday and have only shot a mag through it and was impressed. I’m already thinking of buying the Nyx Mod 2 which will be my 13th rimfire can. |

I really want modular and light, nobody has a Q erector and a Oculus to give me actual owner feedback?
Can I use a tumbler on aluminum baffles? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Can I use a tumbler on aluminum baffles? You're not supposed to as you can supposedly damage the baffles but l did a few times with some aluminum baffles from an old HTA guardian can before I had nick at ecco upgrade it to SS baffles. I didn't notice any damage to them. |

I just got a Mustang and have shot it beside an Occulus. I could not hear a difference. You can find deals on the Mustang if you look around.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I really want modular and light, nobody has a Q erector and a Oculus to give me actual owner feedback? Can I use a tumbler on aluminum baffles? I have both and love both. Both sound great in the full size configurations, and they're fun in the short versions, but obviously louder. I also have a Rex MG22 pending, but I haven't shot it yet, but it seems like it will be on par with the Erector other than weight. The Erector is dedicated to one bolt gun, so I don't have any issues cleaning it. I just soak them in Slip 2000 choke/piston cleaner like all my other suppressor parts and then scrub them clean with a brush. Never tried a tumbler/ultrasonic/soda blasting, etc. I have several aluminum cans and I think the cleaning issues are really overblown, IMO. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I have several aluminum cans and I think the cleaning issues are really overblown, IMO. Agree 100%. I’ve run aluminum baffles through a SS pin tumbler with zero noticeable issues. At the end of the day, though, I’m not worried about getting my serviceable cans squeaky clean. If anything, it seems like they sound a little better with some fouling in them. With my rimfire cans, I break them down every 500-1000 rounds, scrape out the big chunks and put them back together. Aluminum is not an issue there, and the weight savings is noticeable. |

I love my erector. It’s so lightweight it’s like there is no suppressor on the gun. Not a perfect can though. The baffles seem very delicate, but I’ve not had any issues with them. They thread on/off perfect everytime very well machined parts, a little oil on all the threads is a must if you want it to come apart easy. Put together too tight and you have issues disassembling it, too loose and it will loosen while shooting. You need to periodically check it while shooting because ime it will start to loosen up as it heats up.
It’s Very quiet, since it’s so light I don’t even bother with the shorter lengths very often. It pretty much never leaves the beretta 71 Cleaning - I’ve never bothered yet to fully clean it, it’s easy to disassemble and knock out any heavy build up if needed. I just keep the threads oiled.
