    Yes, it is a intergrally suppressed SBR with a ported barrel.

    I just ran federal bulk pack, Gemtech subsonic and CCI subsonic in the same magazine and couldn't tell the difference between the three.

    ... man.... That looks like a sweet little package but I'm not a fan of porting anymore after owning a ported Taurus.357sig.... ported = nightblind if shooting in low light conditions in my experience.

    Not the same kind of porting. This is internal porting that exhaust the gas into the tube behind the suppressor. Nothing is ehausted outside until it leaves the suppressor at the end of the barrel. It is the same design as the MP5SD SMG.

    Listen to the hammer dropping on an empty champer....gives you an idea of how dang quiet this thing really is. Plus listen to the NON-difference between Federal bulk pack and subsonic ammo.

    Sorry the video is hazy because I was pointing into the sun.

    Wow! "the devil" strikes again! I was already tempted by those!
    PS. Have been letting a couple of the guys at work shoot the Thompson zephyr xl can I picked up from you a few weeks ago, and its always the same. They take one shot, lower the 229,. And look back at me with a stupid grin, giggle, and say "wow! That thing IS quiet!" So now I get to work some MORE overtime...

    I love seeing that giggle every time I let someone else shoot one of my supressed guns. Esp when its loaded with subsonic ammo... no-one ever quite believes that tiny thud is a real.

    I've got a couch for you when she finds out.

    Do you have a KFO-SR as well, or just the -IS model?

    I do have a full auto KFO-SR inbound but it isn't here yet. It will be here shortly.... :ar15:
    The right answer here is one of those 4chan "Everything went better than expected" pictures.

    If they ever open up the registry to new machine guns, I need you to sell me that rifle.
