    I'm already invested in the 51T cans. It works well for me. I plan on ordering another M4-2000 this year. Ordered a SD-N-6 a couple months ago in hopes to be used for the 300blk. Nonetheless, if anything from shot show, I was hoping the 51T cans will go down in price.

    From what I was told by one person who went to SHOT, the guy demo-ing it even dicked it up. Twisted it the wrong way first, then got it stuck on the host.

    I wasn't there, so I cannot vouch for the accuracy of it, but this is what I was told. Grain of salt and all that.

    Aac is definitely full of retards (surefire, Ian). But you can't blame them for designing new products. They will take a worn out/damaged can and give you a replacement at 50%. As they said "try towing your Volvo with 500,000 miles to the dealership and getting a new one for $15,000."

    The only thing I have a problem with are the dudes complaining that the cans they don't even have yet are obsolete. You could always wait till May when the new ones start shipping, July until the form 3 comes back and January 2013 and have the latest and greatest - OR you could suck it the hell up and enjoy your absolutely ok M42000
    The problem is that AAC leaves you out in the cold. When Surefire (for example) re-did their mounting systems, they made sure the new cans would fit the old mounts. That's nice. AAC makes it to where if you want a new can, you need a new mount. Pinned? Sucks for you.

    WHY is there a 90 toofus mount??? Because they ****ed up with the 51t. It doesn't work consisently.

    And AAC's constant BS about... "It doesn't hurt to run the can backed of one toof"....

    HORSE SHIT!! Sure, it won't hurt the can, but show me one rifle guru who advocates a heavy rattling weight on the end of a barrel as acceptable for achieving accuracy..
    To be fair, Surefire performed tests with a tension type mount vs. one that allowed slight axial rotation and found no difference in accuracy, from what I was told.

    Yep. I would love to be able to make the M4-2000 tight without having to dremel it but such is life.

    People do need to realize its the BATFE that makes them wait 6 months, not AAC/Surefire/Etc.

    They can't blame AAC for releasing a new mount/can combo four months after they initially purchased the older model

    While I was FILING my paperwork, 2 months got added to the wait time people are experiencing.

    You are going to have to wait until the can is manufactured and pre-orders, etc. are filled and then jump on one.

    I predict that at soonest, you will have one in your hands in 1 year.

    I would rather wait than be mad like everyone else.

    You don't get it.

    A year ago, no one was mad with their M4-2000s.

    A year from now, everyone will be mad with the SR5/SR7 and people will be saying "Get the XXX that AAC just released at SHOT"


    ...this happens every year yet people refuse to learn.

    The wobble on AAC cans is not axial rotation.

    Saker has a replacable end cap. So unless you what to pay extra, you do not have to have those retarded prongs.

    I've seen a lot of complaints about 51t mounts lately.
