Problem with that is ATF has said you can’t have spare parts (baffles, wipes) other than end caps and mounts and an SOT has to be the one to do the repairs, so you yourself cannot.
Now all of that is retarded and IRL doesn’t stop anyone from anything but yea.
The F1 stuff that’s coming out as of late is great imo and you can definitely put together a high quality can with just a Ti tube and good 60* cups. besides chasing decibels is a fools errand.
Folks seem to get lost on all the spacing and design stuff but by all accounts equal distance spacing and skirted cups work fine for most any rifle caliber build.
Biggest obstacle is that not everyone is on the same goddam page when it comes to tube threading and ID/OD specs. So you have to shop around. Things seem to be coalescing around 1.355 OD cups and ASR 1.375x24TPI pattern mounts though. End cap threads are still a mixed bag. SDTA tubes are the most readily available but still use the old D tube thread spec which is gay, but adapters exist from muted machine.
In short ASR mount tubes and skirted 1.355 60* cups are what you want. Bonus if the tube has the integrated 2” blast chamber machines into it. Booster and 3 lug ASR pattern mounts are coming online from a few places too so you can conceivably put one together to run on near anything with the right bore.
