5.56 suppressor

[irishfan]

I am wanting to pick up a 5.56 suppressor but have a couple questions. First, will the 5.56 suppressor work fine with any .22 ammo as well? Second, if I can use it with .22 then do I lose some sound suppression? Third, what are some of the more popular choices around INGO for a 5.56 can?

Thanks

It voids most factory warranties to shoot .22 cal out of a 5.56 can. I went the YHM quick detach route and am very happy with it. I purchased it through SSNFA who is a site sponser here.

Gemtec multi can

I planned on talking to SSNFA whenever I see him. The Gemtech TREK looks nice but does anyone know how it compares?

PM Corey and he will e-mail you his price sheet, he's got alot of different Manufacturers products on there.

Gemtech Halo is another good one.

If I was you I would hold off for a few weeks to see what Gemtec has in store for their tax sale. And it is possible they will offer a can for your likings and they cover the 200 tax stamp fee. That=WIN

After talking to Corey at the 1500 I am looking at the Yankee Hill Phantom QD either in 7.62 or 5.56. I really like how the phantom felt on the front of the rifle and the price is great.

If you havnt seen this check it out! After watching this I would have to go the 7.62 route!
YouTube - YHM 5.56QD vs. 7.62QD Suppressor Test (Part 1 of 2) Intro

Well I hope someone can help me! I can't find part two of this! Part one is kinda pointless without it!

I wonder what happened to part II? It isn't on there anymore.

After that video I can say that the 7.62 is looking like a champ. Do you really think it cuts the sound down enough for no hearing protection?

i have the thread on, phantom not the qd, but i would say its hearing safe, i dont know that i would want to shoot all all day like that but for a couple hundred rounds it fine

but heck even a 22 rifle all day can get to you eventually

Thats the "back up" video. The guy you see on the left was taking the original video which is somehow not on my youtube account anymore.

Youtube has kinda screwed me. I am locked out of my account because I had a hotmail account linked to it and they make you use google now. I have tried changing the email but nothing works so I said screw it and started another one as "Hush Indiana".

I will do lots of videos this summer.

Yes, the Phantoms do well even on sbr's. I shoot them without ears. That 7.62 is a lot of weight on an AR imo.

at the 1500 I saw it in person and my buddy was holding it and didnt think it was very much weight at all. his first words while holding it ON THE GUN were "wow thats a lot lighter than I thought it was gonna be! thats not bad at all, maybe I should go with this one?"
