Suppressor failures by brand

[littlebigtine]

Only vote if your suppressor has failed and detail below. Because baffle strikes can be caused by issues in the rifle system outside of the suppressor itself, please do not include them as a “failure”. The purpose of this thread is to keep a count on weld failures or other issues that arise with specific suppressors.

Please define a "failure." Do baffle strikes count?

I had a baffle strike on my Sandman which was almost certainly user error.

No, failure as in blew apart at the welds most likely (like being reported in the SiCO Scythe Ti thread).

That's what I thought, but not everyone has read the other thread. I think your criteria is the correct one.
