Got it, thanks Jason.
any reviews yet? I couldn't find anything. Im interested to see the the r3 vs the mini4.
Hopefully someone in the industry can get a review up soon. Even if they had shipped, we'll still wait 6 months on the NFA til any of us regular guys can get our hands on one :suicide2:
I'm actually considering getting one of these to rocksett onto my DD MK18. The way I see it, it's a $500 flash hider/muzzle break. That 10.3 really "needs" a can anyway, but why waste $800-$1200 for a "consumable" muzzle device when the gun "needs" to be suppressed anyway?
Todd, IG, Jason, you guys see a hole in this argument?
Fair enough. Couple counter-points:
1) $550 is retail. I can probably get it for $350-$400 with some people I know, so that $500-$550 is tax stamp included.
2) The muzzle blast would be the same on a $550 can as it would be on an $800-$1200 can. I'm well aware of using the brake mount as a sacrificial baffle, but then if/when you shoot without the can, you've got a super-loud gun. It's all inconel construction. How long do you think it would last?
i wasn't considering one until I saw this thread, but I may now change my mind. I was thinking of an M4-2000 or a KAC QD-N4. However recently I had seen the new 5,56 can from SilencerCo and have been interested in it as welll.....decisions, decisions....
It will last a good long time... you know going in that it will wear faster than on a 16" gun.
I think it's a good option.
even if worn way out, it will still cut down the blast considerably.
A QD can with a muzzle brake mount WILL last longer, but how much? no one can tell you.
I've seen M4-2000's run on 10" guns full auto for many thousands of rounds, using just the flash hider mounts. And those arguably cause more baffle wear than a thread mount, since the hiders 'focus' the blast on just three points...
You're going into this with your eyes open, knowing that the can is a wear item. GTG.
