I have a Bowers CAC 9 and have two questions. I have read that coating the inside of the tube with anti-sieze will aid in later disassembly and aid in noise reduction. Any truth to this? Also, what is the best recipe for immersing the can (all aluminum construction) for cleaning? How often should I clean my can? TIA Jason |

My shooting buddy is an SOT. He has a CAC 9 and never cleans it. It sounds great. Once, after a machine gun shoot, some annoying guy that used to burn up my friend's ammo without paying for it offered to help clean up some of the weapons. My friend accepted the offer BUT specifically told the guy NOT to do anything to the suppressors. The annoying guy took the CAC 9 apart anyway, and my SOT friend had a hell of a time putting it back together. Said it was a real bitch. If I were you, I would not disassemble your CAC 9. I also don't think you need to clean it, but people will debate me on that. I never clean my suppressors and they all sound fine. YMMV |
I honestly don't know. It could be true. But if you plan using 147 grain subsonic ammo, I don't see the point. Subsonic 9mm does not really need an ablative material, in my opinion. I fire all of my 9mm cans (I own four) bone dry, and they all sound fine to me. I have never had the desire to spray anything inside of them. I have used my friend's CAC 9 on a post-sample uzi, and it worked great. No anti-seize, CLP, WD40- nothing. |
