This is the first footage I have seen.
All-in-all, I am very happy I went with the 556-212 models and didn't stress over it.

Something's wrong. The video stopped 1/3 of the way in and she was clothed.

From the shots they took in the first seconds of the video it seemed like the AAC was either quieter, had a better tone, or both.
I read about the reduced first round flash of the SOCOM, but honestly it seemed about the same... the AAC had its flame at the very front of the suppressor, whereas the SOCOM had the flame appear about 6" or so in front of the suppressor.
Still saw some first round flash at 0:32
The new cans are neat, but I have no regrets with the 212. And I saved ~$350-400 by going with the older model.
I wonder which one has less zero shift.
We miss you, AC.
We miss you, ToddG.
I almost think that's a moot point. The Surefire may have less, or may not, but regardless, to take advantage of that you need a correctly, precisely threaded barrel, and not many of those exist in the mass-production world, so minimal zero-shift has just as much chance as keeping you off-target as "less minimal shift" has of "putting you back on target", so to speak.
Personally, I buy Surefire for the mount, and because it suppresses just fine compared to other top-end suppressors, and is plenty durable, etc. The mount is what sets it apart for me, the rest is just "par" in that league.
LOL at anyone comparing sound level or tone from a camcorder recording in an indoor range!
Sorry guys it doesn't really work like that.
Barrel length and ammunition? Was that disclosed in the video?
