Over 7K fail free rounds have gone through my SBR with it.Quote:

Barrels shorter than 14.5" sometimes don't have enough gas in the system long enough time to pressurize the gas system to work reliably.
The KXe also cuts down on the concussion that the shooter and person(s) to the side of the shooter usually receive. It makes the sound move directly at the target. Essentially it's a 1 chamber sound suppressor but currently it's classified as a flash suppressor by BATF. Rifles 14.5" and larger don't really need one.
They work.
The KX3 or "Krink" definitely helps tame the muzzle blast of SBRs.
Can you get one without the pig???:confused:
You don't like the pig! I bet if you knew who asked for it to be put on there you might change your mind. :DQuote:

Two things became immediately evident. While some short barreled guns can become testy under certain circumstances or with some ammo, they all ran fine. The other was that i didn't have a headache after the shoothouse runs.
We spent a lot more time with them after that, and the latest iteration- Pig abnd all- are much better then the first.
The advantages of tricking the gun into thinking the barrel was longer (something i wish i could do...) enhances reliability in some guns, and projecting the muzzle blast out farther made life easier all the way around.
Note: You still need earpro!
It is a good thing, but useful primarily on the 10.5-12.5" guns.
How well does it function as a FLASH suppressor?
