If you aren't shooting at least 75% suppressed, go with a FH.
We miss you, AC.
We miss you, ToddG.
Meh, Im stuck in that decision process too.
"Do I want to put a Battle Comp on my 10.5" MK18?" .....
I wish I could try that setup out before I go buy another BC and install it and then decide to take it off.
But I mean, crap, I don't think people give the standard A2 enough credit sometimes.
I have been using a KAC QD FS on my Block II SBR. I have not tried the Triple Tap on it yet because (as others have speculated) I think it will be "too loud". I run a Triple Tap on my SR15 and have no issues with it. But, I ran a BC on a Colt 6933 for a while and I took it of and replaced it with a Surefire FH/mount because it was "too loud" for me. I suspect I would have the same reaction to the Triple Tap on the block II but can't confirm this.
I'm the odd duck. I find suppressors to be virtually worthless on centerfire rifle calibers. I own a can, and am around people shooting them rather frequently.
I still have to, or am supposed to, wear hearing protection as the suppressed 5.56 is not hearing safe. So what's the point? I get the priveledge of adding extra weight and length to my gun for... what, exactly?
I shoot my 9mm SBR suppressed because I shoot subsonics and can shoot without ears if I want to. I also shoot it in a steel match and if the RO doesn't hold the timer just right it means I get extra turns.
I'm also weird that I have A2s on my personal guns, and most of my T&E guns. I hear I need to get a comp though. and a trigger.
Here's something else I find amusing, from those that never seem to examine what they are doing and why, and forget where they've been.
- My gun is too long
- I need an SBR
- My SBR is lighter and so has more muzzle climb
- I need a brake to reduce muzzle climb
- That brake is loud!
- I need a can to make my brake quieter
- I now have a gun just as long as the one I started with and still have to wear ears but now it's heavier too. Plus it's a year later and my pocket is a good $1-2k lighter!
- Yay!
- Post pictures on teh internets!
