Anyone looking for a cheap rimfire can?

All yall are wrong for voicing your opinion about not wanting a sealed can. No one asked, just move along and let this guy do someone a favor. He put it in the description, he’s not trying to trick anyone, so go about your business

Giving people info is doing them a favor. Informed decisions are generally looked upon as beneficial and appreciated down the road.

Did you come to the internet and not expect an unsolicited opinion?

Decent cans I believe Bryan made them for halo696 halo696 back in the day. $80 for a can is not bad but the $25 extra fee is kinda BS.

Wow. What you call a blast from the past for real. ha!

For what it's worth here is the skinny on these suppressors.

Bryan didn't make them. Three companies in the industry were involved in making the components and assembly to final product.

It came about due to a government solicitation. NO it wasn't the CIA. lol. It's main purpose was to be used for nuisance / animal control. The qualifications to get the contract were it had to be accurate within 100 yrds with the ammo they were using, It had to have a high capture rate in the event of a baffle strike or if some not so savy employee screwed it on a .223 / 5.56 by mistake and blew it up like a grenade and it was NOT to be user serviceable. All due to liability reasons specifically. Oh, not to mention it also had to be cheap to fit a budget line of course.

The actual commercial release was the KISS (Keep It Simple Suppressor). Same suppressor. Different model name. The option to make a serviceable veersion for the consumer market was considered but extra expense for product liability insurance due to customer "tampering", as the insurance company so eloquently put it, detered from doing so. It was actually cheaper to have the end caps threaded for assembly than welding but the additional insurance cost heavily out weighed the manufacturing savings.

So there you go. Thanks wwboater wwboater for taking me down memory lane!

I remember those. I was living out in Paulding back then. Bryan put an upper or a lower together for me one time. Good dude. My neighbor, Steve the worthless carpenter turned me on to C3 and Bryan. He had a couple of cans and machine guns.and was my first exposure to such fun things.
 
Mixed feelings on a sealed 22 can. With the right solvent I could see getting it reasonably clean, but unlike a 22 barrel you can't really get any mechanical cleaning outside the bore area. Seems like it would fill up with gunk from the sidewalls on in unless you were religious about cleaning.

And unless you put it on a 223 you won't be 'shooting it clean' anytime soon.
Noone here shoots enough for it to matter......
