A pesky apostrophe plugged the bore and caused failure?

My was not plugged. The company said a bullet hit the baffle about 3/4" entering the suppressor. They said the only way that could happen if the suppressor with not on threaded all the way on. I am here to tell you it was threaded all the way on and tight. So nobody knows what happen. ??

That's too bad it happened. Of course the manufacturer takes no blame. Keep trying. I have no idea why it blew your suppressor out.

Oh - and welcome from Wisconsin!

Welcome from the Pine Barrens of southern New Jersey.

Supressors aren't welcomed in my state by the powers that be.

From bullet strikes, of course. Spontaneously, no.

Do they get loose? Yes.

Do you need to check em? Yes.
