    It's kinda neato how the old hand cuffs work.

    I'm getting close to the point where I don't think I really need more guns. It really helps that I can't fit everything in my tiny locker anymore anyway. Plus, I've never had any nice/usable accessories, so I'll likely focus on that stuff for a while.

    I have all the stuff to reload for .308, .300blk, and .223, but just haven't jumped in yet. I really need to do that as I'd really like to up my rifle game in the very near future.

    I'm putting it onto my Savage Axis .308, .300 blk pistol, and I've got a few .223 ARs that I'd like to start shooting as well.

    Since we haven't submitted for this exact can yet, I'm going to see what my options are for getting the newest version, which is the QD version. I was being obstinate about having a serviceable can, but now that I've had a few days to actually do some research and familiarize myself with what I'm getting into, I'd prefer the new QD version. The new versions of this can are non-serviceable, kind of. The directions for cleaning are to soak for 24-48 hours, then just shoot all the gunk out. Since it is a flow through design, everything just blows out the front.

    Check out this video.

    Exactly. I was thinking I might get to enjoy it next fall if I buy it now.

    I should draw for antelope next year, and now that I know how easy it is to get an OTC rifle tag for elk, I'd like to do that again as well. Hopefully the big one comes in by that time next year. I think it should.

    Now that I've watched a bunch of videos, I'm interested to see how this can runs on my AR rifles. I've never shot a suppressed AR so I have no comparison for blow back experience, but I'm eager to check it out. I wonder why that mini costs so much. I bet it's cheaper through dealers.

    You'll get a moderate amount of blow back, there's vids out there showing how to minimize it. You definitely appreciate good eye protection after a few mags, if not sooner.

    I've seen zero references to blow back with this style can. I've seen some stuff about it not being as quiet as others though. The more I read, the more I learn about all the changes that have been made and even more strongly want the newest one.
