[QUOTE="marksman1941, post: 3040864, member: 68542"] You’ve spent an awful lot of time telling folks how some crowds won’t know what they’re talking about, without actually answering any questions about what the actual suppressor in question were that were so utterly terrible. Many, many of us shoot high volume here, so don’t think you’re special in that regard. My 22 can comes apart every 2000 rounds or so for routine cleaning. Never had an issue, but 22 is waxy and dirty. My Omega 30 (sealed can) is about 6 years old, and has had roughly 12,000 rounds through it. When I bought it, I asked silencerco about cleaning it. They said “it shouldn’t need any, but if you ever feel like it needs cleaned, do a few hard mag dumps with hot ammo and it’ll burn out most of the buildup in the can”. Out of curiosity, I tried that. Suppression was still quiet, it didn’t need any cleaning, but I got curious. I weighed the can before and after, then burned 50 rounds of reloaded .308 through my ar10. It lost just over 1.1 ounces, smoked like a chimney, and worked great. That was in my first year of ownership. I’ve never seen a need to do it again, but it’s an optional way to clean it if for some reason you just have to do so. [/QUOTE]
