Just sent the forms off on my first Tranquilo on Thursday, anxious to actually get some time to use it. I've got a couple other 30 cal cans but figured what the hell. If I end up liking this enough I may have to buy more. Shit, if a titanium version was out there I'd buy several I think. It's nice seeing some good reviews of these cans.

Does the M308 can mount to the muzzle brake that comes on the 5.56 upper kit?

Yes

Does anyone have experience with one on a 5.56 SBR? I’ve been running my 10.5” tOBR with an AAC SDN6 and even using the RTC and an adjustable gasblock there is still considerable blowback.
I’d love to avoid the BCG looking like this after just 120rds. (Looks like i don't know how to load pics anymore.) |

Well, there it is.

I’d love to avoid the BCG looking like this after just 120rds. (Looks like i don't know how to load pics anymore.) I'm heavily invested in the M4 2K and do a lot of suppressed shooting, and I didn't have the need to buy a TranQuilo, but I know LT engineering is results driven and if they offered a suppressor it would most definitely be well engineered and well made. This is a legit can amigos. For those of you on the fence, it's well worth the wait. I am very happy with it and am anticipating it's 5.56 counterpart. For my needs, the lack of a huge POI change is what sets it apart from the suppressors I currently own and use. |

Feels very well built, lighter than I thought it would be. The mounting system seems rock solid, much better than my damn 51t was and seems like a great improvement on a thread on. Can’t wait to get it to the range and see how the LEPE works... only who the f@(k knows longer to wait. |

Suppressor order went from Compliance Call to NFA Pending ....
Does this mean they still need more info from the transfer agent or that it is not ready to ship yet? |
|
|
Waiting on form 3 to your SOT,. Then you do a form 4. Have to get ATF approval just to go to your local FFL/SOT. 1day to a month. Just depends on the ATFs mood.
