I’m not sure what to say @altmike. Sorry for your loss of your late wife. May she Rest In Peace.
Now, about OBL…good riddance. It’s cool that something you had your hands in either designing or marketing. |

Thanks. The 416-SD was a group effort. Sam Fisher of Texas designed the 51Tmount. Rob Silvers designed the ultra-low-flash 3-prong Blackout Flash Hider. I worked on the ported, stamped Inconel baffle stack.
The Navy properly applied our design. SilentMike |

Sorry for your loss. Awesome to know OBL was taken out with an AAC attached.
Side note, love my AAC's, wish I could find 90t/51t devices these days. |

The folks that bought AAC from the Remington bankruptcy are well aware of the AAC accessory drought. Give it a little time. I'm sure they'll get the tap turned back on.

I bet quite a few people would love to have a commemorative edition of that suppressor. Just a field test date would suffice.
Good job keeping a little bit of functional history alive on a superb and proud team effort. |

I was a proud American that day and I bet you are too having been a part of it.
Keep up the good fight. |

Since you had a part in the design, I’m gonna get off my a$$ and laser an argyle print on my m4-2k. It’s gonna be awesome!

A SEAL on another forum I frequent posted earlier that evening with something to the effect of "Patriotic Americans, great news on the way. Standby...." and also posted a response to a guy bashing the military telling him that it may take a few days to hear about, but he is about to eat the biggest serving of crow ever.
Guy still posts there and is still a SEAL, so apparently nothing came of his comments. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Sam is Mongo, right? Mongo was his cat. Mongo63A (63 as in Stoner 63) and Saxon_Engineer were his screen names. I think he also designed the Enigma, a 9mm monocore AAC never brought to market. He hangs out on NFATalk now. |

It has to be really cool to know that your work was used on such a historic mission. Nice work to all parties involved. |
