Pertaining to the Rearden mounts. I just bought their Atlas mount and three MDs for a Otter Creek Labs Polonium can. I only have a few hundred rounds through the setup on my 14.5 but really like it a lot. The first time I shot it this past weekend I didn't lube the MD because honestly I was more worried about the can backing off than I was it locking up. I put it on hand tight and bottomed it out against the collar on the MD. Put a wrench on to cinch it down a bit more but there was no play left. Checked it intermittently during the course of 200 rounds and it never walked. Had to use a wrench to give it a bit of a nudge to break it loose when done but nothing crazy. I am using the standard Atlas and it adds very little length to the setup compared to the direct thread. I'm a big fan so far. The can is still in jail so my testing is limited to the range at the shop so no hard use just yet. This weekend I'll be trying it out on the 10.5 and 11.5.
Yes, this is true.

However, depending on the situation, it may be better to swap the muzzle device and do a HUB mount conversion on the suppressor.

I switched to the Rearden/Liberty Precision Machine mounts with the Rearden Atlas adapter and have no plans of every going back to anything else. They are a take on the Q Plan B taper lock, which is a proven design and locks on very well. They're shorter and lighter than nearly all other QD systems, and they just work. Rearden does make an extended Atlas adapter for longer muzzle devices if needed for some of the pinned devices.
Thank you, I've been living under a rock as I would never have guessed an industry standard would actually come to the world of suppressors. The hub conversion seems a reasonably priced future proof upgrade to my rifle suppressor 7.62TI (Direct Thread) and all go forward suppressor purchases. My .22 & .45 cans are direct thread as I could never settle on which companies proprietary mounts to pick.
Read up on the EM site and they go into more detail and history of the HUB standard.
Thanks again!
