New Suppressor Brake option for Scythe

[Axlrod]

On January 1, 2025, I’ll trade you a Scythe Ti and $200 for a Reaper. And all paperwork done properly.

Can't be done, unless you have a time machine.

I bought the front flat cap for my Scythe Ti, but I can’t tell any difference between the sound with it on or off. I think there is a bit less muzzle jump with the regular end cap, so I use that.

When paperwork is easier. I'll take that Scythe off your hands for cheap. I'll take the chance of it blowing up.

Fixed.

Dang. I was hoping I could borrow your time machine to take my Scythe back!

Ordered one to compare to my Recoil-X's. Price point is better for sure.

I can’t wait to hear about your comparison. I was about to order one, got distracted and now they are sold out. Please let us know when you get to try it out.

Very interested in one of these. I’m in the same boat as @davidinoregon. Wanted to grab one but now they are sold out. Anyone looking to offload one let me know!

Me too. I doubt anyone has one yet since they were just released for sale the other day.

Please do share your thoughts on the two! Watching and waiting for more info.

Back in stock. Just ordered one

Maybe I missed it. Shows out of stock.

Sorry man.

Also when it blows up you can just drill some holes in the side of what’s left of the can, works well

It seems people are not really fans of the Scythe Ti. Is the STM just as notorious? I would guess the short configuration would be great for further recoil reduction

Not that i'm aware of. Probably a lot fewer of them out there than the Ti.

That seems to be a popular use case. That is the platform the recoilx comp brake was designed with.

Obviously the brake increases back pressure. Ive always wondered how they would perform with a flat front cap. Is it any quieter?

If it blows apart and you cant find the front, who knows what you were using....

Do the brakes increase back pressure?? I figured a flat cap increased it more...

I have my eye on the North Reach Whisper Pickle 30K to go with the new Recoilx

I meant to say decrease. Thanks for pointing that out.

 

[wind gypsy]

why? It's basically a flat cap but with added ports after directing the gasses further upon exit. I'd think that if anything the additional redirection of gasses would increase backpressure just not enough to be noteworthy. I'd think gas pressure would drop faster if it was just open to go wherever it pleases after exiting the body of suppressor.

 

[HuntHarder]

I am looking forward to UM getting that machine that will accurately describe recoil reduction. I notice a difference from end cap to brake on my Scythe, just not sure how much.

On the face it seems like the brake would decrease backpressure so that's why I said it but I actually didn't put too much thought in it to realize it's not a vented cap. I see what you're saying and you're correct. Assuming the exit point on the can is consistent in diameter between the front cap and the brake, there has to be more restriction through the brake than the gasses exiting into the open atmosphere with a flat end cap.

Actually that would be a really cool experiment with a gas gun if we could come up with an easy way to quantify the backpressure. Then to throw a wrench in it, do it with a vented can and maybe even a vented can that has a brake which I'm not sure exists.
