  • Today we get to take a look at four different 5.56 suppressors: YHM Turbo K, YHM Turbo T3, Surefire SOCOM556 RC, Dead Air Sierra-5. The host firearms were both 10.3" Colt barrels. One is a MK18 Mod0 Clone the other is an "inspired" MK18 Mod1 Clone upper with the Law Tactical Folder and ARIC system. Enjoy!

    As someone brand new to all of this, it seems that suppressors are similar to HDTVs now: they’re all so good that a lot comes down to personal preference vs obvious choices.

    • @CalebDowning
      @CalebDowning  Před rokem +8

      That is so true that it’s gonna make some fanboys cringe 😂😱
      Your right on though. There are some suppressors that just don’t sound good or work well and you won’t hear much about them because they won’t get very far without either going out of business(Huntertown Arms…) or fixing their problems.
      But in general you are spot on 👌

      I appreciate the analogy but when looking at TVs side by side , the two thousand dollar units performance is WAY better than the 300-500 range. It’s a huge gap. They are both still TVs…but money does give you the best performance and quality

Only drawback is it isn't chrome lined like milspec carriers on the inside. I have abused it and it still works great. Combine that with a H3 buffer and springco red? and you're in business.

Still learning about all of this, but wanted to see if I have other options or am I stuck with needing a Dead Air suppressor.

    YHM Turbo and Resonator Cans are IMO the best bang for your buck .
    I'm going to be in the market for a new Can here pretty soon . I'm gonna have to go with DA428 ADAPTER since I swapped all my PW to Keymo NOX Hybrid FH. I'm really hoping T3 Turbo K will come out sooner than later because that's probably what I'll end up getting . Im looking pretty hard at SIERRA5 as well .
    Triarc now makes HUXWRX QD Extended FH to be PW on 13.9 so I could go that route and gives me an excuse to build one more Upper lol . Realistically I'll probably go YHM or D.A. ..

      Hey Sean 👊🏻
      YHM is super hard to beat for sure. They perform very well and are priced much better than other companies. Their new “FAT CAT” can is supposed to have the same T3 baffle technology but be as short as the K models. That may be something to look into.
      Man, if Huxwrx would make a can with HUD thread mount then I’d jump all over one. But of course they have to use their own mounts 😏
      Surefire is pretty slick. They have a very good/reputable track record, but they are a little on the pricy side.

    • @CalebDowning
      @CalebDowning  Před rokem +1

      Be careful with the Sierra-5 and other front caps. The Sierra is a 5.56 dedicated suppressor, you can put 30 cal front caps on it but the baffles are still 5.56… so DON’T shoot anything larger than 5.56 through the Sierra.
      You can get the Sandman cans and do that. Those are 30cal cans and will have no problem having 30 cal and 5.56 shot through them.

    Hard to believe the T3 turned out to have even less backpressure than the RC in your test! Considering it's about half the price of an RC2 with the mount it comes with, I may have to go with one of these for my setup instead of springing for a SureFire.

      Surefire is a great company and they make a great suppressor. But the competition now days is really bringing the heat.

      I know, I know. I requested a quote from one of the good units and it’s was over 11K 🤯 Sooo…. I don’t think I’ll be picking one of those up any time soon. The problem with the “couple hundred dollar” options is that most of them can’t reliably measure the subtle differences from can to can. And most of them won’t measure above 130db. A suppressed shot is usually above 130db so those wouldn’t do any good anyway.
      I’ve debated getting one anyway but it’s just not good data and would be more hassle than it’s worth.
      I’ve tried some of the apps but haven’t found one that have believable results. I mean if it’s saying that a suppressed AR is in the 120’s then I can’t trust it 😂 I mean that’d be a super quiet 22 not a 5.56… maybe things have changed though, I’ll look back into some of them.

They have a nice tone to them which is something that never translates over videos. Don't get me wrong, the Surefire and Dead Air are nice options as well. It's always nicer to have something out on the muzzle vs nothing to tame the bark some.

    Okay im in a huge inner struggle, I can't decide if i want the RC2 or the DA sierra 5, I already have a Sandman s and Omega 300 both of which using keymo, I've just always desperately wanted an RC2 but the sierra is just making it so hard to decide... excluding mounting options, subjectivity, and cost are there any pointers that you guys have when making this decision? Btw it's going to be running on a PWS mk114 Mod1 and an XCR-L

    • @CalebDowning
      @CalebDowning  Před rokem +1

      I like putting together some “clone” builds so that’s the main reason I got my RC. It is a great can but I don’t see where it’s leaps and bounds better than other cans 🤷‍♂️
      I can totally understand the itch though. I’m glad I got mine and don’t ever plan on getting rid of it.
      My main consideration when looking for a new can is, “what is this cans job?”
      If I wanted a can to put on my hunting rifle then I’d want something lightweight, shorter vs longer, and one with enough suppression to not pop my ears.
      If I wanted a can for my shorty home defense gun then I’m going to want something that can handle a short barrel, weight isn’t much of a concern, and something that does give a good amount of suppression indoors.
      So my decisions on new cans are primarily purpose based. Hopefully that helps. I’m interested to hear what others have to say as well 🤔

      @@CalebDowning Being LE, I'm looking for a suppressor for my DDMK18 as my duty weapon. Definitely looking to keep it as quiet as possible. What would you recommend? I'm looking at Deadair, OSS, Surefire RC2 and SuppressorCo Hybrid 46M. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Budget isn't an issue.

    • @CalebDowning
      @CalebDowning  Před rokem

      Hey Michael,
      I can only speak to the Dead Air and Surefire cans since I haven’t used OSS or any SilencerCo rifle cans. So if I had to pick between my Surefire RC and Dead Air Sierra-5, I’d go with the Sierra. I like the face that I can put different mounts on it and I can add an eBrake on the end if I wanted to knock a couple more decibels off. If you don’t care about the mounts because the can is going to “live” on that firearm, then I’d still go for the Sierra-5 and direct thread it on. That’d save length and weight.
      All that said, OSS has my attention right now. I’m itching to get one of their cans and see just how it compares to my other 5.56 cans. My main hangup with them is that they only use direct thread and their own mounts.
      I hope that helps man 🤙😎

      @@CalebDowning I was looking into the Oss/huxwrx stuff too, I'll agree with you the biggest hangup I have with them is that direct thread which gives you the same problem as surefire in that your muzzle devices are proprietary, and their new flow 556k looks like a Tylenol pill so the aesthetics turn me off there too

    Wonder how the Sierra 5 compares with different muzzle devices, including SOLGW Nox which is what I have.
    Heard from pew science that the RC2 did much better with the 3 prong than with the warcomp, because of the 3 prong having labyrinth seal rings. So wonder if Dead Air compatible muzzles have a similar thing.

    • @christ.5258
      @christ.5258 Před rokem +1

      It won't make a difference. That's because the warcomp lacks the labyrinth seals compared to the flash hider and muzzle brake that prevent gas from escaping the RC2s collar. The Dead airs are all fully sealed including the keymo so no gas is escaping

      Getting land would be best but it’s also the most expensive 💰💰
      Public access in this case is a plot of land that the public has access to and can “recreate” on it. Folks camp, bike, hike, off-road, hunt, and shoot. The downside is that it’s a little like the Wild West. Not everyone is safe and accidents can happen quickly and easily. Also, disrespectful folks treat it like a dump and the locals will vote to shut these places down.
