Let’s Go Hunt 158 – Flannel in July: Deadonka

And that's an Inconel, or no, it's a 17-4 stainless suppressor.

But, like, it's full-auto rated, but it does have, like... And they do say that...

You need to keep it under that in order to keep it from wearing out prematurely.

Now, you could potentially go past that without having an unscheduled disassembly.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
Let’s Go Hunt 158 – Flannel in July: Deadonka

Go ahead.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
Let’s Go Hunt 158 – Flannel in July: Deadonka

No, I'm just saying that if it says full auto rated, it needs to give an actual firing schedule or it's suspect.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
Let’s Go Hunt 158 – Flannel in July: Deadonka

Yeah, pretty much.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
Let’s Go Hunt 158 – Flannel in July: Deadonka

But I'd want to know how much quieter it is because you're literally paying double, but there's no way you're getting double the suppression.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
Let’s Go Hunt 158 – Flannel in July: Deadonka

Right.

Let’s Go Hunt 158 – Flannel in July: Deadonka

So there's diminishing returns the more the higher you go in that suppression category.

It's just that it costs more to make them.

So it's

And some of the ones like 3D printing with like steel and titanium has really upped the game on suppressors and being able to do weird things with, you know, controlling gas and staging the expansion and cooling of gas to the point where they're actually getting really good suppression out of some of these.

But...

Let’s Go Hunt 158 – Flannel in July: Deadonka

you're going to pay the extra for it.

Let’s Go Hunt 158 – Flannel in July: Deadonka

I was talking to a buddy at church the other day, and I was kind of telling him, yeah, you're going to see a lot of cans out there for relatively inexpensive in the $300 to $400 to $500 range after a little while.

And they're going to be mostly fine, but they're not going to be the best.

Let’s Go Hunt 158 – Flannel in July: Deadonka

But if you want the best ones, you're going to still pay a lot for them because that's what it takes to make them.
