I recently got a Pandora brake from Liberty Suppressors and had my SRT Shadow can retrofitted for the brake until my Form IV clears with the BATFE. I did a little write up on the brake and included some videos for those interested in sound suppression devices. Here's a link to the article. More to come...
Pandora brake on a .308

kgunz...I'm glad you like your pandora's box. I just saw one this weekend at Knob Creek machine guns shoot. This was David's first year at KCR shoot so that was pretty cool.

He had a bolt gun in 300 whisper at his table that was AWESOME...the integrated barrel looked like a 40mm grenade tube made from Ti. All you'd hear when he shot it was "click" - no kidding - of course there was the thump when the round struck the berm...as it was a clients rifle he wouldn't let me have it... Here's a video of that one...he calls it Thor's hammer....this thing is freaky...imho

David is a great guy. I have one of his cans on my MP5...you can see it somewhere on his site.

Full disclosure...David is a good personal friend and my 3Gun "Sponsor"...OK so I get a bunch of tshirts...oh and he's going to update my can with an update...we've been camping down there Knob Creek since he was a mere GE machinist...so maybe I'm a bit biased. Maybe I should update my avatar...

But if you ever talk to him you'll know in short order that he's a real "straight shooter"...and maybe a bit of a slow talker I guess its a Georgia-thang...




Always glad to hear people enjoying his products.

Yeah, David IS a great dude, there are few like him, and none better. I shot "Thor's Hammer" the other day at his shop, it is quite impressive. It's a .300 Whisper built on a Remington 700 S/A with a Hart 1/8 twist bbl 15" long with a permanently mounted can attachment point. The can is an additional 10" long, but is a reflex design that goes all the way back to the recoil lug so it looks like it is integrally suppressed, even though it's not. That's why the barrel looks like it is 1.5" in diameter. The can is Ti so everything about it is light weight and very handy. He says it's the quietest gun in the world, and I have to believe that, I've never heard anything quieter. It makes less noise than a Daisy Red Rider bb gun!!!

David says he is going to start making them to sell. I don't think he will be able to build them fast enough!

I have a YHM Phantom QD, mainly for my .300 Whispers (9" AR and a 16" Rem700). The AR is pretty quiet and the Rem is stupid quiet. A littel heavy though as it is a steel can. I had my gunsmith remove the flash hider portion of the QD from the adapter on the Rem700, and I'm thinking of having him do the same thing on my .308 Rem700 5R.

I do enjoy shooting with a supressor, very pleasant.

+1 on David Saylor he his a super person and very inovateive in his craft!

I have a JET suppressor for my 308 and 223. I like them both. When I put the 223 can on my ar and use my 22 conversion it is VERY quiet and fun to shoot.

I have a can on my AR and love it because of not having to wear ear protection in the heat. Have cans for 45 Glock and also for 1911. Have not been able to get the noise down on the 1911 like the Glock so some homework is in order...even though it is legal to shoot where I live, at least 500 homes can hear....another fun toy...

Not sure if this counts, but I shoot a Liberty Shoofly .22 can on my Savage MKII almost everyday in my backyard at 50 yards at little spinning steel targets. Love it!

I just started using a AAC M4-2000 on my AR. My main take-away is: this is too cool. I wish our national-level 3-gun rules encouraged the use of suppressors! It makes shooting .223 seem like .22LR.
I haven't done a side-by-side with any others but I will say I like the quick detach feature quite a bit. Zero seems to be very consistent any time I put the can on. If I had to do it over, I probably would have looked at the SureFire cans as their quick detach is on top of their brake/comp vs. just a flash hider. That seems ideal for my purposes.

But, a few learnings for this noob can shooter. Lube, lube, lube -- with all that extra crap coming back to the carrier, things get bone dry in a hurry. I'm also running a lightened (currently the JP LMOS) carrier and will probably swap in a slightly heavy (not quite milspec) carrier as some full mag round strips are falling short. Granted, I'm running a light buffer spring, light buffer, etc.

I have a TBAC 30P coming for my AI AW .308 so I'm definitely becoming a can snob.

On my Rem700 (.308) I use an AAC Cyclone. I'll be using for deer hunting this year on my 6.8SPC upper as well.




For 3gun I don't use one. I may add a Noveske switchblock and then use one on a AAC 51 tooth muzzle brake which kinda looks like a Bennie Cooley brake.

I use an AAC M4-2000 Mod 07 on my 10" SBR.

I tried to use a can on my AR at a local 3 gun match, but they stopped me half way through the stage! RO said the timer is not picking up the shots.

[jmorris]

I have them in .22, .223, 9mm, .30 while they are all effective my .458 is the most impressive to others.
