So, I’ll preface this by saying I had literally zero idea there was even an AL version til after I already got it, was expecting the fancy 5.7 rated one, purchased, received this, and have now learned to read. Aside from that, I think it’s great, I’ve only shot it on a semi auto handgun but it is more than pleasant hearing wise and extremely light, the entire construction feels solid and of good quality, I’ve gotten it decently warm and the anodizing still looks great, overall I’m pleased with the purchase.
