The Q Cherry bomb and Plan B

[TMS951]

For what it's worth, I make a Plan B compatible flash hider that has wrench flats behind the mount so you can wrench on it if it were to seize up.

How does your offering compare to reardens?

In my experience you need to treat the plan b the same way you would a direct thread. Screw the can on till it stops back it off a 1/4 turn and snap you hand around with a lot of torque. I have not had an issue since I learned that.

Thank you! I will try that the next time.

I actually bought the Night Howler (the WolfPack Plan B flash hider). It's like an A1 birdcage. Uses 3/4" wrench flats (smaller than Rearden's 13/16" flats).

I was looking at this just yesterday. Do you make a version that will take a 14.5 to 16?

One other question. For you guys who have devices locking up are you using the nitride or the raw finished versions? I thought I had read someplace that the non nitride versions were more susceptible to carbon lockup.

I have both and it doesn't seem to matter. The first thing I do when I get a new muzzle device is put some anti-seize on the mating surface of the muzzle device and spin the can on and off. I originally had the same issue as metroplex but now with the snap method I have had it lock up a few times but I purchased a cheap wrench that I throw in my range bag and just twist it off at the plan b side if needed- https://amzn.to/3KgOPAa. I don't use the cherry bomb, only readon.

Unfortunately we do not. We started making these so that we could offer a silencer mount on a new project that were working on without paying out the ass. I started selling them as a stand alone product but don't currently have plans to offer a longer version. Maybe if we get a ton of request and nobody else makes one.

Agree on the snap method and treating it like a direct thread. I believe they even have torque specs for attaching the can.

I have been direct threading my OCL Polonium now for a few months (its in jail and I get conjugal visits) until I could decide which attachment method I want to use. Put it on manually and they cinch it tight with a wrench. Interestingly enough the phosphate barrel never works loose. The stainless barrel does.

Gracias. The only one I can find so far is the Rearden. Not very many options for a 14.5. Or should I say ones that are of the standard A2 design. There are a few out there that look like they should be on the business end of a Transformer.

Liberty Precision Machine makes a couple. I have the readon R2C on one of my 14.5.
