Data gathering for suppressor comparison day

[Jimss]

There has been a lot of controversy about suppressors vs muzzy brakes. It would be cool to use a sled to compare recoil of different calibers with suppressors vs brakes.

No it wouldn't.

Already completed by backfire TV and a host of YouTubers that are close enough to validate Supressors are awesome and brakes suck. I am surprised the libs haven’t gone after brakes as a noise intrusion of their personal space. Clearly a good argument for Supressors.

Well, I don't have a lot of hope that this will happen on 2/6-7. @h2so4 is still waiting on the Airlock 6.5, and me in a Reaper; both submitted 1/5. With our dumb 3 day wait after approval, I think that means Tuesday at the latest.

I haven't had to wait for suppressors. Approvals came through and picked them up same day.

Checks.

Local shops are interpreting it differently.

Wasn't the 3-day wait law written only for firearms?

That’s how I read it. And most gun shops. But some are doing a 3 day wait.

What's the controversy? One is more effective at reducing recoil energy than the other but makes it obnoxiously loud compared to even a bare muzzle. The other reduces concussive blast significantly and recoil less but adds weight/bulk to the system. The extents of recoil reduction and noise increase/decrease on a fairly large sliding scale depending on the design of brake or suppressor.

@KickinNDishin told me I misunderstood what she said the guy told her when she submitted, and you are correct.

It technically is but some shops are being wary on cans also since they are a serial numbered ATF item. The one I use has the stance of 3days from form 4 submission, being I've never had an approval <3days its never caused a delay.

What's the outlook on things? This getting postponed or still tentative?

I don't know yet. In the suppressor wait time thread, there's a new post from someone waiting on 1/5 submissons, so that makes a handful of folks including @h2so4 and myself. I think people probably want to get opinions on the Airlock65 vs OG65, so I think we should wait.

If we do end up waiting, maybe I can talk @ID-Muley into fast tracking me a Reaper OTB piece and just do this in March.

I'm fine if we push it so we aren't waiting for last minute confirmation.
