Yeah, pretty much.

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.

Right.

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

And sometimes even being more expensive, they're not better.

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...

you're going to pay the extra for it.

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.

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.

Like, I was looking at one.

It's a stealth additive manufacturing can called the Tisha.

And on Pew Science, it achieved the best suppression on any of the 5.56 platforms, and it's four and a half inches long.

Yeah, it's 2.1 inches wide, but on the Mark 18, it outperformed everything.

And it actually handles 6mm too, so you could put it on your 6 arc if you wanted.

But of course, it's $1,200, and a polonium is...

$530.
