r/suppressors

Question above

Okay so forgive my ignorance but I am looking into getting a suppressor, I have a ar15 and ar10. Both have sure fire compatible muzzle adapters for a sure fire suppressor. I’m thinking about buying the socom 300 sps because of its compatibility between the .308 and 5.56. I understand that it’s not the most efficient for either as it’s designed for .300 blk.

The question I have is if it can mount to both a 1/2x28 and 5/8x24 sized muzzle device, or if some adapter would be needed. Thanks in advance for any help!

Why won’t they release a muzzle device with a tapered shoulder? Seems like all other suppressor QD manufacturers are releasing tapered barrel shoulder muzzle devices except Griffin.

I’d scoop up 5-6 muzzle devices in Dual-Lok if they offered that. And no I don’t want to use a 25 to 90 deg adapter, because, tolerances.

Quick question. I'm getting a suppressor, and I am wondering if I should file as an individual then get a trust set up later or just go ahead and get a trust. My wife likes to shoot every now and then

Wanted to detail my first experience using silencershop. I currently have a can and sbr from years ago before Eforms was even a thought.

So, I order an OCL Milkman on back order. Went ahead uploaded my trust documents and all the associated information for myself and my wife. double checked it and created the ATF Eform account.

Milkman came in. Ran by my dealer and certified the application very quickly in between errands. Well, one thing I will say was my fault is I did not double check everything super well before this.

Leave and just happen to over the weekend working. I checked the form on my email just looking again. I notice that the trust name is incorrect, but the address is correct. I send Silencershop an email and they respond saying that they will be on it and have someone reach out. two days later i send an email asking for update, no response. In between this I call multiple times and stay on hold until I have to get off the phone. I wait a few more days contact my dealer and explain and they finally get them on the phone and stop the process. The dealer says that the trust documents uploaded on my dashboard were incorrect and show the trust name that was listed on the form 4 and I need to change the documents.

I go in and look and find that the trust documents shown on my dashboard or for someone in Texas and I am in Alabama, with no knowledge or association with these people. So, there is no way I could ever upload these documents that shows this trust and the personal information of the people listed. It had to be silencershop who uploaded these documents from someone else after I had uploaded the correct documents.

I return to my dealer because I have another suppressor arrive and I said then I could certify both form 4s at the same time. Go in and the dealer checks and the address listed for me on the dealer's dashboard is incorrect as well. The dealer says you need to change it to the correct address and I go into my dashboard and show him where my correct address is listed on anything I can find, I also double check ATF Eforms and it has the correct address listed as well.

Dealer says your going to have to call them and wait until someone picks up so they correct the problems and also return the milkman to the dealer dashboard because the milkman shows the form 4 is in process and due to the address being incorrect on the dealers dashboard even after refreshing and clearing the history it still shows the incorrect numeric for my address.

So, hey I will call today and see if by some chance I can get someone on the phone, because I am in limbo until then.

This is absolutely unacceptable. What if the ATF would have approved this or before the stamp cost was gone and it cost another $200 because the software or whatever they are using uploaded someone else's trust information onto my dashboard. Not to mention the personal information listed on that person's trust.

I know nothing about suppressors and I've been looking to order a Lyman Rekkr suppressor. I figured that since it’ll be my first suppressor that that price point is hard to beat and I won't feel too bad if I eventually upgrade or mess it up.

That said, I saw someone’s post about DT suppressors “walking off”. I didn't know that that was a possibility and it kinda had me going down a rabbit hole.

On Lyman’s website it says this about the DT Rekkr suppressor, “An integrated stainless steel muzzle brake spins gas in a way to continuously tighten the suppressor onto your muzzle.”

Is this a gimmick or is this type of tech/engineering legit? I know many have not been able to get their hands on these suppressors specifically, but I thought it was worth asking.

Please don't grill me too hard and thanks in advance.

Hey y’all!

I just got my second suppressor, OCL Lithium 9, that I’m wanting to running on my Flux Raider build. From my understanding, since this is a tilting barrel slide, I need to run a booster assembly. I got the YHM Booster Hub Adapter and the Dead Air Odessa 9 Piston.

My question is, do I need to Rocksett the adapter that threads directly into the suppressor or the other piece that holds the piston in place? Do you apply anti-seize anywhere? Where do I apply grease? And how do I get the suppressor from walking off the barrel? I understand it’s common, but is there anything I can do to prevent it from happening?

I’ve considered getting the Griffin Armament EZ-LOK. Is their piston compatible with the YHM Booster? Would I need to Rocksett the EZ-LOK barrel adapter to the barrel?

I know some similar questions have been asked before, but I couldn’t find answers to these questions specifically.

Thank you in advance for your help!
