    It's true apparently. It's AAC's equivalent of a price increase.

    Man are they ****ing horrible with P.R.

    They quit including one because alot of people need a different type of mount than an AR15 mount, so AAC let the user buy a specific mount separately.

    You don't know what you are talking about.

    Want to know more about this as well.

    AAC's suppressor mounts/breaks are not currently available from what I understand

    Unfortunately I have not shot the Surefire muzzle brake - only their flash suppressor. I'm sorry I couldn't be much help on that.

    I definitely can hear the tuning-fork-like piiiinng when not shooting suppressed.

    At at recent course, the instructor standing nearby, not familar with the Blackout, thought his earpro was acting up.

    It doesn't bother me, tho; in fact, it is kind of entertaining. Definitely not a showstopper for not considering it.

    It really depends on the specific set up. I've shot guns that really ping loud when unsurpressed, but I have a gun with a blackout mount that barely pings at all every so often.

    Yes, good point. My specific case is with a shorty . . a 11.5" Commando upper with NATO-spec ammo, so a longer barrel with SAAMI-power ammo could very well be different.

    Interesting. I have mine mounted on an 11.5 Colt commando, thin profile barrel. My mount rings like crazy when it's off the barrel, but when I installed it, it reflexed back over the shoulder of the thin barrel and that almost totally dampened the pinging.
