| Anyone have one? Thoughts as compared to the M4-2000? |
|
I have shot it on 10.3s, 14.5's, and 16's. I have shot it side by side with the M4-2000. I really really like the Mini 4 on my 16 in gun. The M4-2000 makes a 16" gun bigger than it needs to be. It is hard to tell the difference between the 2 cans side by side so why buck the wait and put up with the extra size.
On a 10.3" gun you can tell the difference in sound for sure, but with the Mini 4 will still allow you to shoot an communicate with a partner indoors without hearing protection. It still hurts a bit, but nothing like unsurppressed. It also takes the indoor over pressure away. Anything for interior use or CQB I like the Mini 4. Outside and on guns that are already long and heavy the M4-2000. I decided 6946's and 6920's Mini 4. Sniper or Recce type rifles the M4-2000. The Mini 4 Is a ton of can for the size and money. |

In my experience, the mini 4 is considerably louder than an m4-2000.
This was outside mounted on a 10.5" I was the guy next to the guy using it. Still quiet enough to communicate, but louder than the 2000 by a lot. Edited to add: The surefire micro seemed to be somewhere between the mini 4 and m4-2000. (as perceived by my ear, not not sure how it would measure with testing equipment) |
| The mini4 is louder to other shooters around the gun. But behind the gun it is very close to noise of the m42000. I like the mini4 better than the m42000 on all barrel lengths. I am behind the gun and sound is very good for the little size weight and length added to the weapon. |
| I am also looking at this suppressor. How does it compare to the Surefire Mini? The AAC looks to be half an ounce lighter and a quarter inch longer, both adding less than 3 inches to the overall length. I'm torn between the two right now, obviously my wallet prefers the AAC. |
