    Now to find a 2nd suppressor. I'm thinking either 9mm or .223 :)

    My sandman S came in! Now to figure out what muzzle devices to get and how to line everything up!
    Same! Picked mine up from jail last week. I immediately dumped the brake that came with it and opted for the flash hider. Timing was easy enough on my 300blk and 5.56 pistols, just use the included shims to make it perty. Didn’t need shims for my Tavor because of that nifty little locking nut on the barrel lol.

    I timed mine with the pin hole at 6 o’clock so the mounting detent would be right at 12 o’clock for easy can mounting and so the flash hider could do it’s job having a tine at the bottom.

    For the brake, I believe it says to time it with the 3 ports exactly at 12 o’clock.

    I think Im going to get the flash hider as well as I'm generally not a fan of muzzle breaks.

    Im thinking of getting the Omega 9k for my MPX.

    I’m not a fan of brakes either especially with shorter barrels. My only experience is with Dead Air since the Sandman-S is my first can and I’m not super familiar with keymo devices outside of dead air. Only reason I’m weary is because of the warranty. What’re your thoughts? Are there other quality keymo devices out there that are worth it or should I stick with the DA muzzle devices?

    I honestly have no clue as to one over the other. Im just generally a fan of flash hiders over breaks.

    As suppressors or as a muzzle attachment?
    Like I said I’m not a fan of brakes on shorter barrels so I opted to flash hiders to disperse some of that fireball and not make everyone else at the range hate me with concussion and gas lol.
    Of course I also mean that I have a can for that specific mount (keymo) so when I shoot unsuppressed it’s more bearable.
    I wouldn’t get a keymo muzzle device unless I had a can to put into it lol

    I hate brakes on anything.

    But I have 4 of them installed because they act as sacrificial baffle mounts for my cans.

    I also don’t shoot unsuppressed.
    I see no reason to do so. At all. Ever.

    It would be nice if someone was willing to give a presentation of silencers at a range for those of us that really know nothing about them.

    Dazee has been very helpful in the past.

    It's been done/tried several times.

    I know it's a late post and I don't know what you went with but I went with a Dead Air Ghost and really wish I had just went with a Mask because of cost and usage. Good company and great product!

    Putting the wife and son on the trust is easy enough, only downside is the extra prints/photos needed.
    ooh.. I need to look into that. My understanding was that only the Trust Executor (or whatever term they use was required to fingerprint)

    Not an issue now, since I am the only one on the trust.

    It is easer for your family, if you pass before them, they will own the trust and can make it easer for then to keep/sell when you are gone.
