A5 Annecdotes backed up with something other than "Feel"?
Hey, so I'm looking into the A5 system and it's intended use on an SPR and a 12.5", both suppressed and not.
Does anyone have an reports that have some basis in proof or fact. I see a LOT of people writing "Oh, it definitely feels better" or "Oh, it's much more reliable".
I'm specifically interested in reportable metrics, like suppressed and unsuppressed my brass is landing 3 and 2 o'clock respectively. Or if anyone can comment on the amount of gas they are getting back on them (please mention what silencer you use). Or if anyone has cyclic rates suppressed and non, etc.
I'm not sold on the system by a long shot, I have a "feeling" a lot of the overwhelming reviews could be that the guy just paid $100+ to switch the RE out and really does want to "feel" a difference. Happens every single day with performance automotive parts, so I suspect it's possible with firearms as well. I'm also not discounting it or saying it's shit, quite the opposite, I just want to see real data. I find it interesting Vltor has put none forward on a DI gun.
Anyone?
