So I took my Recce 7 home last night and finally got my Dead Air front flash cap installed on my Sandman-S
Thanks @mageever for the advice on PB blaster and a few hours in the freezer Is this going to be standard feature on current/next gen Suppressors? I don't see a ton of tests/results about night time/flash for .30 or 5.55 cans. Are flat caps not effective enough for flash suppression?

I can only tell you it varies. I do a fair bit of night hunting, mostly for predators but occasionally for hogs, usually with buds, almost all of whom use suppressors. My experience informs me that some suppressors are better, some ammo is better. And at what angle you want flash limited is a consideration.
Fwiw, the brake on the Omegas limits flash from any angle toward the front. I would bet that any other brake type cap would do the same. Unfortunately, I never took notes on which suppressors are better and which are worse, or the ammo used, but the differences were notable. I do think I notes that longer suppressors were consistently better at flash suppression. JPK |

Yeah, they were pretty mediocre. We had some extras so we used them as giveaways to some cool kids and some went to a couple dealers to play with. Brad was just cool enough to make the cut. (It was close )
