09/16/06 Silencer shoot (Update pics pg. 3)

[alucard]

First, I used a Canon SD 400. It is a digital camera, that happens to take video, so you can not watch this video and use it for sound comparison test. It will do you no good, for example: in the video the AR-15 sounds almost the same as a P22 walter, and they were not even close. The mic will cut out any "really loud" sounds so that it does not blow.
But if you listen very carefully when im shooting the Uzi with trident can, I put it on single shot, and the first three shots are subsonic, and the next three are supersonic. you can kind of hear the sonic crack that goes on for a while after I shoot.
You really have to experience it in person to get the real effect, cause video is always worthless.

Anyways: Here it is, it is 30Mb so if you have a slow connection, it will take a while:

Man, I realized after the video that I blink a lot when shooting. You can really see it when I'm shooting Mp5's beretta with the trident can. I need to work on that.
I'm sure a lot of my blinking was atribbuted to shooting Hunters full auto M4 and the gas going through the chraging handle straight into my eye... I blinked alot after that, and got some sunglasses also...

I learned alot, but not enough... some many questions that I think of after wards, but this was very fun.

And the hotdogs and cheese brats were good too!!!

I will definatley be at dragon mans on the 24th, see you guys there.

I was happy when I got to compare my Glock 21 KKM Precision barrel and SWR H.E.M.S. version 1 directly with a HK USP with a AWC Nexus version one. (Both have a version 2 out now) I had the guy hold each pistol in each hand, he would shoot his, and then mine. I stood about 4 ft away. Used the same ammo. first we did it Dry, then we wet the cans down. Each time my H.E.M.S. one was louder then the Nexus. and same results when they were wet.

So I called Joe at SWR, and he is going to take care of my H.E.M.S. for me. I love his customer service. He is really a great guy to work with.

All I have to do is send it in, and he is going to "regut" it with H.E.M.S. 2 for me for free! Whoo hoo

Also, any body know the guy who had the AWC Nexus, with a HK USP and HK Mark 23? I would like to get in contact with him and do another direct comparision some time when I get teh new H.E.M.S. 2.

Sweet! Thanks for signing up and posting the vid alucard. Welcome.

Alucard, it is good to have you as a member of this board. These guys need to realize that going through life with hearing protection is no way to live :P .

I am really glad to hear about your new HEMS2. Joe really goes above and beyond the call for his customer service. Whenever I am looking for a new can, SWR is the first place I look. Yankee Hill may give me some $hit on my warranty since a gunsmith did not install my flash hider :roll: .

The other guy with the .45 can you are referring to is Samurai. He seems to be a very busy guy and does not post a lot on this board.

Thanks for doing the video. By the time you videoed the 10/22 it was filthy and I could not get much of a burst through it, you will have to catch me earlier next time.

The lack of hearing protection is understandable and indeed the whole point of this get-together.

The lack of eye protection in the video, however...

Alucard is the only one in the video who fired a weapon without eye protection :roll: . He will get it right next time :cool: .

[KarlPMann]

I wasn't paying attention. My mistake. It IS required at all club sanctioned shoots!!! :roll: Karl.

[alucard]

Yeah, I will have eye protection from now on. Lesson learned.

I wish I would have got video when you were shooting the 10/22 and it was clean also. And I wish I could have got vidoe of Hunters full auto M4.

This was a fun shoot. Thanks MPfiveengineer for the trigger time. And if you ever want to get rid of that AA 10/22 stock let me know.

Also was going to see if you have tried that DU Pont Teflon Multi-use lubricant? It’s supposed to help the 10/22 keep working after quite a few bricks.

So I called Joe at SWR, and he is going to take care of my H.E.M.S. for me. I love his customer service. He is really a great guy to work with.

All I have to do is send it in, and he is going to "regut" it with H.E.M.S. 2 for me for free! Whoo hoo

That is awesome...when you get your can back let me know and we can compare them again. I'm interested to hear how much of a difference it makes.

I'll send you a pm with my contact info.
