Robert, I noticed that the specs say that the dB rating is between 28-40. Does that mean 28 dry and 40 wet? What were the ratings for the Evo-45?

I assume we’ll be able to see these at SHOT?

Yes, it is at the Shot Show now.

This is around twice as quiet as an Evo-45 or other circa 2006 designs when dry.

Why the huge spread?

Can you get up a picture or two of this on a 1911 and preferably at a sharp or low angle so that I can see the how the two compare in width…

How much of a SFx200 will this suppressor negate? I suppose it would be best suited for an HK with LAM, eh?

At some point I will post a photo but I don’t have the stuff in my location.

The dB spread is from dry to wet.

This can looked and felt great on the Sig220 Combat TB. I won’t be the first to buy one, but if the reviews come back from end users as highly rated as they are coming back from guys like Bookhound {Mark}, I will definitely stand in line for one.

-23dB Dry, -37dB Wet

ah… I was so caught up in the “hearing safe when dry” that i forgot about wet.

So it’s 5dB quieter dry than the Evo45 and that’s enough to put it past safe huh?

I seriously considered a smash and grab job on the AAC booth after they brought that by to tease us! I need to track down a USP-C .45 threaded barrel and I’ll be giving Kevin and Freddy a call. The AAC guys kick ass - hands down the friendliest people I met at SHOT this year. The back of my laptop is decked out in AAC and Magpul stickers, so I no longer have to worry about people want to talk to me in public…or even sit near me. :stuck_out_tongue:

I’ll wait for another company to come up with their own offset design…

Thank you.

Hey it’s not your fault.

Robert,

Will the Black Box hold water as well as my Evo-9 does?

I intend to purchase one as soon as I recover from the two Prodigy’s I just bought. BTW, has the first batch of Prodigy’s shipped out? Mine were in that lot.

Hold water “as well as?” What is it? A friggin’ canteen? :frowning:

Well it does look like a canteen and is the same size as one…

HA! Funny…:stuck_out_tongue:

This might help explain why the dB spread is so big. http://www.silencertalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=73366#73366
Robert stated that the dB reduction for the prototype on a USP tactical was between 34 and 35dB.

I bought one after I heard Mark (Bookhound) raving about it after he shot the prototype. He said that it sounded like an Evo-9 dry. I’ll for sure post a AAR when it arrives.
