You filthy pig!! KX3

[black22rifle]

How would that cause a rifle to Keyhole?

[Ned Christiansen]

I don't think it would. That was another issue.

I have not had a chence to really pick at the carbon yet but I think it's in there hammer and chisel tight, not popsicle stick tight.

Thats what SHE said...

[tarkeg]

Phrasing!

so, I'm guessing this happens to suppressors as well after a while.

My thoughts exactly.

Its funny the ATF doesn't consider that a K baffle...

Maybe someone should write them to ask for their opinion!


I kid, I kid

I told my friend I was going to send half of it to Noveske. He said make sure I let them know he's a satisfied customer.

Time to test the KX5...

Pistol-caliber suppressors, yes. If you are running a 5.56 or a .308 or bigger, then no. The gases from the muzzle on a rifle are hot enough to burn off the deposits.

I was recently at a suppressor class, where we had as a sample a sectioned 5.56 can. The instructor asked us how many rounds we through had gone through it. i figured he was testing us, and guess high, 10,000 rounds.

Not even close, it had 148,000 logged rounds through it. The interior had a hard, thin layer of carbon, but nothing approaching a caked-on layer.

The pistol-caliber cans, however, looked remarkably like the pig Ned has sectioned. It's all a matter of heat.
