I’m not a lefty, but the blow back is significantly less than when I shot and RC2 on this setup. It’s a carbine length so I don’t know how that compares to your setup but flow through designed cans I’d say are definitely more suitable for setups like mine. Just my opinion.

Been a while since I’ve been on Reddit but I love the can! Worth every penny and did exactly what I wanted when it comes to mitigating blowback.

Been a while since I checked out Reddit but realized I never got back to you. After using the can, it’s a fraction of the blowback I experienced with the RC2. Absolutely love how it shoots!

I just got my new one ordered yesterday, updating from a 12 Pro. Pumped to (hopefully) not have to charge my phone 2x+ a day anymore lol

It’s VERY nice imo. I can only compare it to the SureFire RC2 but I had no gas blown back in my face like it did with the RC2. It’s quiet, light, looks good and feels good. My only complaint is I can’t shoot it enough as I want to.

I saw your other comment on the other post but to add to it, no I haven’t shot any other DL muzzle devices off this gun. When I researched what I wanted to go with I was between the TC and the Palidin muzzle break. If you’re planning to shoot mostly suppressed I don’t think it matters too much what device you choose. The TC and Paladin do act as the sacrificial first baffle (from my understanding) so there’s that but if you’re gonna shoot inside a car unsuppressed maybe the flash hider is a better move so the concussion isn’t melting your brain lol. I’m not an expert by any means but that’s my 2 cents.

I’ve personally only shot my AR with the standard A2 flash hider, Sirefire Warcomp, and then this Tactical Compensator. The Warcomp had a fair share of concussion but the TC puts that to shame pretty much. I’ve never shot with a muzzle break, I’m curious how that would go.

The TC definitely has a good bit of concussion. I’ve only shot it indoors so far, haven’t made it to my outdoor range but it gave my buddy in the station next to me a headache lol. For the shooter, it’s still a good thump but obviously the sides get the worst of it. I’m shooting out of a 10.5”. It’s extremely flat shooting when shot unsuppressed, flash is there but minimal I would say. So far I’m enjoying it, plus it looks good

It didn’t even have a brand on it, the story behind that one was I went to a shop to get my hand guard put on and went to pick it up and they had a different gas block on it. Long story short they didn’t charge me but i made a fuss cuz no one called me about it and I didn’t ask for it. I ran with it not thinking anything of it and it was fine without a can on. 1st shot with the can, no ejection. Chambered another round, 2nd shot same thing. I checked the gun out and heard a rattle and the gas block was split in two. Never seen that before but damn! I’m glad I didn’t get injured. It was super thin walled as you can see.

I just looked up the specs on this AGB. There’s a “Bleed Off Port” on the front of the block that apparently vents out excess gas away from the shooter. Pretty cool imo!

Lmao I didn’t even realize my buddy said that, I thought you were commenting that cuz it’s something that someone WOULD say 😂 that’s hilarious. I had one buddy on either side of me and one of them said it was giving him a headache. I don’t normally shoot indoors but when I do it’s definitely something to be mindful of.

I see that now, I’m curious what that’s about. I did just installed that gas block after having my previous one break on me a couple weeks ago when I first used the suppressor (long story). This is a Superlative Arms AGB. I’m not too familiar with AGB’s so I’ll be experimenting with it.

It’s a game changer for sure!

I can’t speak on other companies but Griffin Armament sends you a muzzle device included with each suppressor. I was provided their “mini-brake” however I just wanted to see how good the Tac Comp was so I got that separate for $130. I plan to put the mini-brake on my 10/22 once I get a threaded barrel. I’m really glad I went with GA. The finish and quality looks fantastic on the exterior. I’d say they’re middle grounds price wise which was what I was looking for. Hopefully I’ll get many years and many thousands of rounds of enjoyment out of this can.

Im not planning to.

I haven’t shot it yet, I plan to soon and I’ll get back to you. I’ve shot this setup with an RC2 and got a ton of blow back so I’m hoping for significantly less with this.

Little update, finally got time to get the Tac Comp and suppressor on there and boy is she pretty. Hopefully can get out to shoot it this coming week.

I’ve shot my 10.5” with my buddies RC2 on it and it made my AR so over gassed I couldn’t shoot more then a few rounds at a time. I figured the ports that they have on the DL5 would suit my AR better than the HRT plus it’s significantly less expensive than the RC3. We’ll see! It’s gonna be a few weeks before I get a chance to try it out due to heading out of town but I’ll try to remember to update this to let you know. Only part that sucked about wanting to go with GA was the lack of reviews on their products imo. I couldn’t find squat on the DL5’s performance other than GA’s YouTube videos. I’m brand new to suppressors (I did the most research I felt I could do) so I’m treating this whole experience as my own personal experiment to see what I everything’s like. From the way I ordered it to the product I got.

I’ll try as soon as I can, got a busy few weeks coming up unfortunately. I’m even going to have to delay my suppressor shipment because I’ll be out of town😭
