[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1215775, member: 2736"] I'm not sure about the effects on the suppressor except it will have to deal with more un-burnt powder. Shorter barreled weapons tend to burn more powder outside of the barrel creating more muzzle flash and noise/blast. In one of the test of my muzzle brake, (It all but eliminates the signature/ flash) but with the 6'' to 11'' barreled AK it produced a 2 foot round fire ball that you would just have to see to believe. Pistol suppressors don't have to deal with huge amounts of slow burning powder and function well with pistol powder and small charges. In testing rifles with muzzle brakes shorter barrels had considerably more muzzle flash and brakes were less effective. In theory, the Suppressor will have to deal more potential pressure and consume un burnt powder. It will be interesting to find out. Please let us know how it does. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
