Is that a MAC can? Looks strangely familiar.

Made from the original drawings... a few small changes to the front helical baffles (which were later replaced all together anyway).

Yes, it is made from the original Ingam drawings... a few changes for current manufacturing, but it is like going back to 1968.

That is some beautiful work. The helical baffles are cool.

I can appreciate what you did from a "built to original specs" standpoint, but personally it would be hard for me to go back to "wipes" technology and I'm thankful we have come a long way.

Gemtech produced an interesting MAC suppressor that manged to retain the "retro" look with all the modern updates. At any rate, still pretty cool and I imagine you will get better performance than the originals gave.

Are you gonna go truly "old school" and pack the rear of the can with grease so you can splatter black oil drops all over everything in a 10 foot radius?

:D
