Guy beyond counter told me TBAC was having cans made by KGM.
Dead cans are made by KGM. . Serial number is KGM-xxxx
Next on my list of the KGM r6.5. KGM R30 looks interesting.

Just curious how well the ports work on the Kgm can vs increases in noise.
Watched the videos, but a video is a video.
Someone on here is waiting on one i believe.

If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

I own 3... The day I ordered... Cory lasered the S/N on the tube for the NFA "Stamp"... 90 days later (might have even been less)... in hand. I also have 3 Thunderbeasts... I hate them regarding cleaning... same with a Bowers.

I'm sure there a lots of good ones. I'm very please with the YHM Resonator, and lately the Resonator K that I put on my 18" 7mm08. Great prices, great service. Check 'em out.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Just got back from my LGS.
They had a Harvester Evo in stock and the staff, who I've dealt with before and like, agreed that for what I was looking to do with it, this suppressor would suit my needs very well. I couldn't argue with the price.
Wish I'd started this a year ago. They said they're seeing wait times of 180-200 days.
So I paid them the money.
Thanks for all the good info, guys.

That's what they were saying. 110 days would be more better. I talked with the hardware guys. The guy who keeps track of all the paper work won't be in until early next week. He'll have a better idea.

Thanks for all the good info, guys. Great choice. I have an original Harvester and it spends its time between two of my hunting rifles. I like it a lot. I will pick up an EVO as soon as the wait times come back down to what I can stomach. So far I haven't had to wait more than 4 months for any of my suppressors.

Cash, tell me a little more about the Lane. I haven't come across them before. Just a great small business in South Dakota... pick up the phone and call them anytime. They will answer any question anytime. Free service/cleanings... drop ship you O rings if you ask/clean your own cans. Below market cost on a superior product. Backstory... Tycen was my FFL/SOT back in the day... also a great personal friend. He, Chris and I were shooting one day... Chris hands me his .300 Weatherby and tells me to curl up on the bench and light off a few. FUGG NO... Chris hotrods the hell out of every round. I stand up and pop one off... YEPP a monster load for sure... Then he screws on the Lane Magnum Scorpion and tells me to try it again... DAMN... .308 grade recoil. I turned to Tycen and started to speak... no need... "I'll put in the order as soon as we head back..." That .300 Bee load is kinda secret because it is about 20% over max... And my .308 loads... Then I bought a .458 can I then had Cory make me a custom can for my 9,3M... His cans do not disturb accuracy for me... Watch The videos in the link I put up... Just great stuff from great people...

IMHO... a great value also. No middlemen. I bought the Ti tube over SS core... Cory said if I wanted to upgrade to all Ti... "No problem Leonard... actual cost."

Lane makes a good product - a local GS sells a pant load of them. I almost went with their Scorpion 6.5 with one of the most recent cans but the flexibility of easily swapping out the direct thread mounts for different thread pitch (I don't fancy ASR mounts) has kept me in SilencerCo stuff (though they're not the only ones that offer that flexibility).

Looks like Thunderbeast is having trouble keeping up with demand. All out of stock at Silencer Shop. That's been a pretty consistent issue with TBAC. Great product though. FWIW, LGS chatter. Guy beyond counter told me TBAC was having cans made by KGM. Dead cans are made by KGM. . Serial number is KGM-xxxx Next on my list of the KGM r6.5. Got one in jail. 230+ days on an eForm 4 Trust . . . . . .
I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.

Definitely go light and short, of my .30 cal cans, my Nomad TI is my favorite because of the combo of lightweight, performance and length. I also like my steel Nomad and Liberty Sovereign, but would get the Ti over either for hunting and LR. I'll probably buy another Ti hunting can so I don't have to swap as much, looking at either the Other Creek Hydrogen K or Diligent Defense Enticer S. Both metered well for their size in the Pew Science testing for their size and are very light. https://hansohnbrothers.com/shop/ot...0-caliber/otter-creek-hydrogen-k-7-62mm/https://hansohnbrothers.com/shop/di...0-caliber/diligent-defense-enticer-s-ti/https://pewscience.com/sound-signature-reviewsThe TBAC Ultras are great, but then you're stuck with their mounting system or DT. These days I prefer something with the standard "Hub" rear thread format so I can use DT or any taper or QD system I might want.

I filed mine in June, then in was ~110 days wait. I did an efile in May, lgs told me they are finally seeing march's come back, hearing same reports from others also, so hopefully another two months or so. Just got my omega 300 approved from last December, one of those things, pay the money and forget about it. It was all worth it when i took my 300bo ruger ranch out the other day. Just picked up a bergara ridge 708 threaded to try it out on also.

I'd go with a short can. I've had a Silencerco Omega since about 2015 and it has worked well for me. If buying another, I'd give Thunder Beast a look for sure.
