Re: Newbie suppressor questions
Some personal feedback for the OP, after my first time with my new Saimaa Still QD suppressor.
After 20 rounds, fired over a few minutes, the suppressor was nearly too hot to remove with a bare hand.
I had to wait a few minutes before I could.

Re: Newbie suppressor questions
The same is said for the ASE, on my ex-553 with shorter barrel would get hotter compared to on my longer barreled DD.
What’s important to note, with the borelock system on ASE, the suppressor does not get loose as I experienced on my LM with a locally supplied suppressor after a mag dump.

Re: Newbie suppressor questions
Thanks for all the feedback and info,
i decided that there will only be one way to get over this and be sure, so....... range time,
i ran one mag with 3-4 round bursts with 2-3 seconds waiting between bursts, then another mag with 10 round bursts (3second waiting between) and a final mag with 5 round bursts with 3seconds waiting between again,
end result was a really hot barrel and even hotter silencer, silencer had some smoke coming off it but nothing to serious.
Looking at some youtube videos afterwards, i realized that +-100 rounds in +-100s is not really anything major, but at least i feel better afterwards, so on to the next issue, cleaning silencers, ;-)
Cheers
