Air Lock Industries Suppressor

[eoperator]

Now I want an airlock instead of an OG.

I was thinking 6.5 og but that idea has faded quickly.

I want to see an OG 6.5 against the Airlock 6.5… two seemingly awesome cans

Boatloads of clueless users of IR thermometers.

Black electrical tape is my go-to for lower temp applications. Not a perfect 1.0, but good enough for ΔT which is what I usually need.

A bit of high-temp flat black spray enamel should work for suppressor measurements.

Yeah, it's any easy thing to miss for casual users. But, Danny may have accounted for it.

When I was Test guy, I'd use flat black paint and mil gage with IR temp gun.

Preference was always a t-couple though! Even to the point of routing wires inside an engine block to measure thrust bearing temps

I debated the OG and the airlock for awhile. I picked up my airlock earlier this week. Couldn’t be happier.

Same. And I apologize for ruining your evening. All these threads and podcasts about badass suppressors just makes me mad lol.

Back to the topic at hand...

Yeah I’m all in on the airlock now. 100%.

Yeow. When is that 6.8mm can coming? Suppressors are the first time I've been wishing I had a 6.5 instead of my 270.

You can use a suppressor on a 270 too.

 

[JohnB]

You can use a suppressor on a 270 too.

Yeah, but not a 6.5mm suppressor.

 

[IDVortex]

Yeah, but not a 6.5mm suppressor.

I mean. Technically after the 1st shot you could if it doesnt blow up....*





*this is satire, i am not reliable for anything you do with youre firearms, especially if one is dumb enough to think this would work.

According to social media, the 7mm airlock can is in the works. There should be a video on airlocks Instagram teasing it

 

[deerhunter628]

I would be in for a 7mm

 

[Antares]

Maybe I missed it, but was there evidence of an Airlock can being damaged by .223 rounds?

 

[DannyB]

Yes it was a pre-production blem with a crack by the end cap so I put on a 11.5 5.56. Go to post 206 and read forward.

 

[Dobermann]

I also remember somebody saying bore diameter didn’t matter for sound , and now they are making a 6.5 OG for some reason ….

I don't have a dog in this fight, but to be fair: in the recent S2H podcast with Cliff, he says that while this had been known as a general case for muzzle forward suppressors, the S2H/US team were surprised to find it to be the case with their design for OTB cans.
