[Tahoe1305]

Somewhere out there a tort lawyer and an anti-gun judge are salivating over this…

I actually started studying for the Bar yesterday. Got it scheduled next week. Wish me luck! Sounds like lots of clients here.

Personally, if I didn’t have a scythe already, I’d be avoiding them at this point. I have a TBAC ultra 7 which I like better anyways. I’ve always thought silencer co silencers were sort of cheap but the scythe was supposed to be the newest hottest shit, now they are blowing up. For me it would be a hard pass but I already have one so it is what it is.

I 100% agree. Mine blew up. Was def not mid used and I’d wager to say it was pretty babied. I wish I could just get my money back but I don’t think that’s an option. I really like the can but def not if it blows under the conditions mine did. My kids shoot a lot and I have a hard time trusting it now.

For sure. It's a bit frusterating because I'd like to use the scythe on some other rifles I have but I just don't trust it. I think it will likely be fine on my 18" 6.5 creed moor but I won't put it on anything else. I honestly wish I'd just bought another TBAC. I guess to me, the frustrating part is how SiCo is just denying any issue when they are clearly not a 1 off. If they would just admit that maybe there are cartridge or barrel length restrictions and say hat they are it might be different.

It arrived at SiCo yesterday. I just got a FedEx 2nd day tracking number saying it shipped out today headed back to me. They are on top of the replacements imo

Are you going to put it back on that 20-in rum?

If no one is getting hurt, I would put it right back on the gun that it blew in half on. I would want to test it out to ensure that the problem is fixed. I am guessing that Sico knows the issue and hopefully it is rectified on the newer Scythes.

Doubtful. 26” and 22” is probably where it’ll live. I think I’ll try to find a more robust can for the shorty

Disappointed to hear about failures as this was on my “ next can list “

Need to do it for science

In my uneducated opinion, a 8 oz can will not hold up to short barrel rum pressures.
