[QUOTE="Mattbowen61990, post: 2384167, member: 88611"] I think you have started out with the misunderstanding of my original comment. I gave pew science as a measure if 1 or 2 metrics. What does the original post say? There are better cans available with better performance, better FEATURES, and better PRICE POINTS..... Jay only covers 1 of those attributes. I literally dropped that so people will have a well made source to use to compare sound data instead of numbers companies claim. Nobody else supplies that kind of information, so that's why it's posted. I don't understand how you jump to his findings are irrelevant because his focus is sound and gas performance. It's what people want to know about suppressors. Again, he focuses on sound and gas management, don't go there looking for meltdown testing. Don't go looking for some kind of accuracy measurement that would be virtually impossible and also a useless test in 2021. They are all precision made instruments in this day and age. You wouldn't go to the car dealership and say "they told us how fast the car accelerates but, they didn't tell us how fast it stops so that information is useless". As far as the banish goes, it's a given how it's going to perform, it's been compared to other cans, but it's not a shining star. Is it a great can? Yes, is it listed in the best? No. It's been around and had name changes, it's not anything special, it's claim to fame is "user serviceable" and "shipped to your door".
