I feel like a broken record. I realize these posts are all over the place. Trust me when I say I've done the searches, gone back pages, contacted manufacturers, etc...
I just cannot decide on a can. It's been like this for about a month now, and since Washington SBR's seem to be going so fast via E-form, I feel like I have wasted enough time as my stamp should hopefully (knock on wood) be approved soon. What I'm looking for is a suppressor that will hopefully be a first, but until others are purchased, will fill multiple roles. -Will be used on a Rem700 in .308 -Will be used on 5.56 AR's varying in length from 11.5" to 18" -Costs ~$1k not including transfer While QD would be amazing, I understand it won't help with accuracy on the Rem700 or the 18" spr AR. Just how much shift are people noticing when precision shooting with a qa/qd suppressor? Are there ANY systems that may work? If it's a serious problem, maybe I could be convinced to go with a 5.56 only can if it'll help in mounting. But in that case, I'd still want something solid to put on the SPR at times. With all of that said, I've looked at AAC, Silencer Co, YHM, and a few other various brands. You guys know better than me, where should I be looking, and finally, I really appreciate any insight or knowledge you all can help with. |

AAC is Freedom Group and their quality/reputation has taken hits lately.
SilencerCo has the best QD mount on the market and accuracy will not suffer as much as you are being told. I would vote for the Saker 7.62 and a 5.56mm cap for when you shoot on the 5.56. YHM is the way I went, but the Saker 7.62 hadn't been released yet. My can is lighter, but I have to use the YHM QD mounts. If you go back and forth between 5.56 and 7.62, I would 100% recommend a QD. Thread-on cans are minutely more accurate, somewhat lighter, cheaper, and simpler, however you do not want to full thread the can on and off as much as you would have to. Also, you would end up with an adapter for your 5.56mm anyhow as it has different threads and at that point, you might as well have gone QD anyhow. Get QD brakes and don't look back. |
| Saker 7.62 would be perfect for what your are describing. You could even get the direct thread MAAD module for mounting it on your Rem 700 if you dont want to put a QD device on that gun. It will work on all the guns you mentioned, plus it will come with one free muzzle device and the extra ones you will need are a good bit cheaper than other brands. They can be had for around $70 each, where AAC are $100+ and SF are $130+, when you are talking about needing one for each gun it really adds up. |

I would steer you to a two can solution for around $1K. SpecWar 556 for $550 and either a Harvester for $525 or an AAC Cyclone for $658, buy some mounts or whatever with the $200 store credit and sell them to recover some money. I really like my Cyclone on a bolt gun. (I also have a Harvester is in jail) |

I have a saker 5.56 with trifecta flash hider qd mount on my DDV5. Poi shift is consistent down 1 mil, or approximately 3.6 inches @ 100yd zero. To me this works out nice having a leupold mark ar mildot scope mounted to it. I have no problem ringing a 8" steel plate out to 300yds with inexpensive wolf 55g

Thanks guys.
I've been doing more research last night and this morning and the Saker 7.62 really does seem like it might fit the bill. The brakes do in fact add up. Right now the way I'm figuring it, is Silencer Shop has a dealer about an hour from me, so I'd like to go through them. I was adding up thye cost and what I'm seeing is: Saker 7.62 + maad & 7.62 brake - $899 5.56 Flash hider mount - $75 Form 4 - $270 So I'm at $1244 total. That obviously doesn't cover all my rifles, but at the very least I could run it on my Rem700 and SBR. Then sell off the muzzle devices on the other rifles slowly and swap over. Which shouldn't be a big deal because they all wear Battlecomps and AAC Blackout non-mounts. That's right about where I figured I'd be. Though I haven't really factored in any taxes I'd have to pay on the transfer. As far as swapping the end cap for 5.56. Totally necessary or no? It's another $80 but I'm thinking I can wait on there. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place but is it only a 4db difference just changing the end cap? It's a drop in the bucket but I don't quite think i'd rush on that part. |

Not necessary at all to swap the end cap, but getting one before the ban is a good idea. What I mean is that there are rumblings that BATFE will roll-back the lax attitude it has had towards 'suppressor parts' as of late given the end caps are legal and the Salvo shotgun suppressor can be shortened by the user. If they roll the regs back, they usually pressure the manufacturer to just stop production. They don't outright ban the practice or do cat-stomp raids to confiscate the ones that are out there. Case in point is the YHM Wraith .22lr mounts which were declared silencer parts. So, $80 now or the likelyhood that you won't have the option in the future. I heard lots of folks in the 80's saying, "Why should I spend $200 to convert the AK to Full Auto. I can always do it later, when I get the money." Well, yeah, later came and they banned full-auto in 1986. This kind of hindsight is why the bump-stocks are so popular today even though they cost about five times what it takes to make them. That's why folks have 20 or 30 Glock mags per pistol. Get it, hoard it, use it. As others have stated, it's a good idea to use the flash hider or 'door breacher' end cap to differentiate it from the .30 caliber cap. That way, you are less likely to shoot .30 cal through your .22 cal cap. |

This is getting expensive fast  Quite addicting with how easy the process is. The hardest part is the wait!

So the good news is, I found out the shop like 5 minutes from my house is a Silencer Shop Direct dealer. So needless to say this process has just been made VERY easy for me! The wait however, is not. ;)
I'm highly considering 2 suppressors now. Possibly one for my 10/22? Or a handgun one. Any suggestions on ones to look at? |

Were I to have two .22 suppressors, one would be a Warlock II and the other a Sparrow or Spectre II. The Sparrow is more compact, but the Spectre II is better at handling FRP and, in my opinion, easier to clean. Instead of two .22 suppressors, though, consider getting a 9mm multi-caliber can like the Octane 9 HD or Liberty Mystic or Infinity. The advantage to the Infiniti is that you can use rifle calibers under limited conditions in addition to the 9mm and 22. You can shoot 300 BLK supersonic and sub. 7.62x39, .223, etc. ETA: or did I misread your question? If I were to only own two suppressors, I would rethink it so I could get a third... but it would probably be a Saker 7.62 and a Spectre II. |

How's the Spectre on a 10/22? I would love a 22 handgun as well. This gets expensive fast! Yeaaaaah, just think of it as money well spent. I have been selling my non-suppressed guns to fund the habit lately. I've also evaluated everything recently based on its "SBR/SBS/Host" capabilities. I have two Ruger MK II's with tapered barrels... but had to buy another with a bull barrel so I can have it threaded. ETA: Oh, and I haven't tried my Spectre II on the 10/22 yet. Just got the spacer in. |

The good news is I'll recoup a lot of money on all the Battlecomps and other breaks/devices I have from what I am keeping. But with my SBR lowers hopefully being approved reasonably soon, there's no reason to bother with all the other stuff. And I can rebuild the collection while I wait on the can(s) to be approved. |
| Everyone should have a 22 can, they are about the most fun you can have with your clothes on. You'll be happy with the Sparrow or Spectre, they are awesome cans. I have both and can't honestly say I like one more than the other. Pistol cans are fun too, but 22 is so quiet and cheaper to shoot. |

I also just ordered a Saker 762, I have the sparrow now and love it. I hate to say it but I'm kind of a fan boy now and think I will be going with the Octane since it can also be used on several different pistol calibers. I was looking at the octane myself. I've been a little conflicted with the 22 suppressor because my local shop has a deal where if you purchase one suppressor, they'll sell you a Warlock II for like $175 + stamp. But the price isn't too far off the from Spectre so I'll just suck it up and go with the better one. |

They're basically identical in design, and suppression, just different in material. The change in material results in three main differences: 1. Weight (3oz vs 6.8oz) 2. Calibers (Warlock is 22LR only, while Spectre adds .17HMR/22mag/5.7x28) 3. Cleaning options (more methods available for SS baffles) That being said, if you want a lightweight can for 22LR hosts, the Warlock is a nice option with an even better price. Don't choose it to "cheap out" in any way, but choose it if it fits your needs. I started with a Spectre II because I have an AR57 SBR. I added a Warlock to use on 22 pistols, instead of going with another Spectre II or a Sparrow as it fits my needs better. |

Plus I like the option to use it with multiple calibers. The spectre is leading my list right now for a 22 suppressor. Still exploring other pistol options but it'll be a little while till I can put in the order. The Saker order was put in last week along with another eform 1 for a lower, so I think $1400 in NFA stuff is good for that week.  Unless I decide to sell off more stuff for them.

If you want a rimfire can, and want multi-caliber use, and don't know if/when you'll buy another...I don't think there's a better option than the Spectre II. It's one of the few that handles 5.7, arguably the easiest can to clean, quiet on short and long barrels, and sub $300. Everything else fills in a gap by being cheaper, lighter, shorter, (slightly) quieter. |

Everything else fills in a gap by being cheaper, lighter, shorter, (slightly) quieter. I'll definitely be picking up other suppressors in the future. But with the 7.62 already on order and the 22 being the next, the Spectre will be the one. After that I'll go on to something for my 9/40/45's. And eventually a second for just 5.56. |
