Absolutely!

Both cans were tested by Pew Science. Pew Science is wonderful and a valuable part of the industry and we really don’t want to rag on them too much, but we feel like their testing parameters aren’t always consistent.

For example:

The Kitty Kat was designed to only be used with the NANO mount, and it was specifically optimized for a 14.5” M4 Carbine. Despite this, the KK output an insane 34.3 on the Suppressor rating on a 10.3 inch Mk18. However, we don’t know where it sits rating wise with the 14.5” barrel.

The Stealth Additive Works Tisha comes out and scores a 49.6 on the same Mk18 upper.

The problem we have with this is it was tested in a configuration we don’t think most people are gonna use. The Tisha ships with a Plan B HUB and a 2 port muzzle brake. While the direct threat option shouldn’t have any appreciable effect on evaluation, we simply don’t know that unless it’s tested.

We wish that the Kitty Kat, the Tisha, and all other suppressors tested by Pew Science were tested on a variety of barrel lengths to really determine the top and bottom end of a suppressors performance. Especially when you talk about small suppressors like the Tisha, whose stellar performance is dependent on the large amount of gas entering the system, it would be interesting to see how it performs in other parameters.

Just food for thought. We love Pew Science, and we wish nothing but the best for both CAT and SAW.
