With all the coin I have tied up in suppressors $50 for an alignment rod didn’t bankrupt me. Invest in them, they are worth the insurance.

I agree. Also, I’ve had the range I’m a member of check it with their rod for free as well. The same place I purchased the suppressor and shoot. Nice service giving the $$ we spend shooting.

I agree and I should probably get at least one for my 5.56 guns, since I'll be moving that suppressor around on multiple firearms.
I was on the fence about keymo, but knew I wanted locking collar so chose rugged for my 1st can

Rugged makes great stuff!
I love the Rearden. However I chose to stay with my yhm qd mount because I love the sound of the ratchet

No problem! Eight days isn't that bad, really. I hope you get it soon!
I’ve got a Keymo mount with no issues but the dual lok system from griffin armament is something I’m looking at for my next can.

Dual Lock is better bc of the taper lock. I’m also going that route.

I'm sure most Key users have never had any problems. It's just something I've seen a fair share of recently. I think the Griffin Armament Dual LOK system looks really good.
Thanks for the info. I just got my trust setup so I'm going to start getting supressors here soon.

Nice!
I use ASR and love it, Most of my rifles have the Lantac Dragon ASR which performs great and looks awesome. I also have the SiCo ASR muzzle break and the SiCo ASR closed tine flash hider which are pretty awesome too. 😎

Yep. I just ordered another ASR flash hider for my MK18 build that I'm starting next week. It's a good system.
Q plan B is shorter than rearden. Also Q plan B is shorter and lighter than ASR. Direct thread should basically only be used on bolt guns, as they will come loose with semi auto fire.

I didn't know that about Plan B. Thanks for the information. I've never had my direct-thread suppressor loosen, even shooting relatively fast, but I'm sure it can happen.

@sawtoothtactical404 Yea, I have had mine come loose with direct thread and couldn't believe I didn't get a baffle strike. I felt super lucky😬. After that I discovered plan b and have cherry bombs on a bunch of rifles. They have worked superbly and never come loose.Love your channel!!
In the opening scene, you're wearing hearing protection. I was wondering if that suppressor lowered the noise enough to shoot without hearing protection? My next suppressor will be a QD.
@msquared9605

In my opinion, no matter the caliber you’re shooting suppressed, they’re only hearing safe for a few shots at most. The sonic crack of the bullet starts to really mess with you, along with the suppressor to cartridge/barrel length combo making it not quite hearing safe. The only sustained fire that’s truly hearing safe is subsonic suppressed. And even that’s still pretty loud. I mean rack the hell out of your ar while shouldered. The bolt cycling is still fairly loud
Trying to find a hub mount to pair my DD Sg 556 to a surefire warcomp. If direct thread,how tight? Just hand snug?

Oh I should ask is there a lot of blowback and how does it perform? Looking to get a fairly short can for my 10.5 and 16 inch 556.
Just paid off one suppressor and have another paid off soon, but which mounts do you like most for an 11.5 inch sbr or a 9 inch 300 blk?
