My question above wasn't questioning whether a can works, or if it makes shooting more enjoyable, or if there are benefts to a can. I'm just curious as to how many cans ever get put on a rifle. For every 100 threaded barrels sold, how many actually get the thread protector pulled off and a can screwed on? Due to cost and paperwork hassles, I'm guessing it is single digits. I could be wrong, I've been wrong more than a few times.
