There are things about suppressors that manufacturers do not tell you. For example, suppressors create an acidic compound, when gunpowder, bullet residue and everything else exiting the muzzle of your firearm is combined with condensation (created from the heating and cooling of the suppressor) a compound capable of corroding a barrel or a suppressor is formed. Part two of this story, we have seen suppressor come apart at the end caps, stainless steel, aluminum etc. all can do this. The end caps are generally threaded or welded, creating a thinner portion near the ends, thereby allowing a place for corrosion to begin and ultimately resulting in breakage. How do I avoid this you ask, simple after firing remove the tube from your weapon so that they can air out. If the tube can be disassembled, clean your tube, or spray a very small amount of oil into the tube, wd-40, liquid wrench etc. but use sparingly as these formulas are often flammable and could go boom upon your next firing. Titanium tubes are corrosion resistant will require no maintenance |
