Unknown suppressors OG testing

[Q_Sertorius]

Great report! Only question is about the balance point. I thought I read earlier that because it is heavier, it doesn’t reduce the balance length compared to something like an Ultra 7 or Scythe. Since you’ve got all of them, it would be awesome to test!

My balance comparison is here:

I ordered my OG on June 1st. I was #1222. It arrived at my SOT on June 18. I picked it up this afternoon. I opted for the bead blasted finish. I think it looks great. Finish is very high quality. I also ordered the 1/2-28 thread adapter, tool, and cover. The rifle on which I eventually...

Balance is one thing, maneuverability is another.

The OG does “feel” easier to swing… I think there is a reason, and it is where the weight is distributed.

If you have two rifles of relatively the same weight, they can have the same balance point, even though one is longer. The longer one can even weigh less or the same.

But, maneuvering them feels different because of where the weight is relative to the “pivot point” which is different than the balance point. They are different because we don’t maneuver rifles from the balance point, we maneuver them from the butt stock.

Weight that is further away from the butt takes more effort to move in the same arc. It also feels heavier.

It isn’t dramatic, but it’s just enough to be noticeable, without the ability to really distinguish because it is not that huge. You can notice.
