    Thanks for the update.

    That function is exactly as expected given the gas system configuration and gas port size.

    yup! Im still going to experiment running a titanium bcg and A5H0 and see if that will run unsuppressed haha. Thanks for advice on gas port sizes! Also, interesting tidbit, there is almost zero back pressure and discoloration on my brass when using this set up with my KAC cans. Its amazing.

    I’m assuming your gunsmith pinned/welded the muzzle device?

    Nah, I'm sure he's running around with an illegal weapon

    I’m building a similar setup and was curious who did the work?

    The comment about the clean brass is interesting.

    This seems to indicate the extra long gas system timing works nicely with the suppressor.

    I am not sure who did his but would strongly recommend John Thomas of Retro Arms Works. He does great pin/weld and whatever else you need. You can't even tell mine is pinned without looking closely.

    He is cheaper than Adco and others as well

    No only is his work first rate but his turn around time can't be beat.

    I get most of my work done at C&R firearms with Jim in northern Virginia currently. Rob is usually slammed and Jim has done excellent work for me. yes it was pinned haha. I checked function on my SBR lower first and then had it pinned after I confirmed function.

    You take this out for any groups yet? How is it shooting un-suppressed?
