To each his own, I guess. I prefer a suppressed SBR over a non-suppressed. I don't mind the extra cleaning, I guess I'm just deranged like that, hehe.
I agree with you on the ease of movement without a can on, but losing most of the concussion and fireball is worth the small loss of that.

no hearing protection on for either? were your ears ringing for days? Ive fired a 10.5in SBR at an indoor range, with hearing protection on and it rang my ears... I dont even want to begin to imagine what it would do to my ears inside my house with out any protection on.
I dont have an SBR yet, or a suppressor... but my 16in gun is plenty maneuverable in my home, and a 10.5in gun with a suppressor would be right about 16in. ill take saving my hearing over a little gained maneuverability.
Granted i do agree that .223/5.56 doesent exactly suppress the best. I would never suppress a 5.56 with the intent of making it some sort of ultra silent ninja sniper weapon. I would put a can on a 5.56, though, to make it tolerable to fire indoors or around others with out hearing protection.
I've fired my SBR without ears accidentally. I meant to shoot, but forgot my muffs were up on my head, above my ears.
I thought the gun blew up. But the ringing was short lived. If it had been an actual fight/shooting and I knew I didn't have ear pro on I wouldn't have been startled by it at all.
I've fired my 14.5 once in anger with no ear pro. Not the same as an 11.5, but I didn't hardly hear a thing.
I have not fired a 5.56 sbr indoors but I have fired a 16'' barrel 12ga in a hallway was it loud you bet the shock knocked off window glazing where my ears ringing? I don't even remember so if they were ringing must not have been to bad.
I would take the advantage of an SBR with out a can than one with a can.
firing a weapon inside a house with texture sheetrock and carpet and furniture and shit is actually MUCH quieter than firing it basically anywhere else... i guess it seems like it will be worse than firing outside on the range or at an indoor range, but all of the things in the house absorb the sound greatly.
Looks like we are getting into the auditory exclusion phenomenon.
I am waiting on my first batch of silencers and they are pretty much for fun. I don't see me buying anymore after this.
Yes, and there is already a big thread about it: http://m4carbine.net/showthread.php?...ght=suppressed
Instead of excluding one or the other is there no reason why we can have the best of both worlds? My suppressed SBR is quite maneuverable and quiet at the same time.
