Does it have to be timed since it has a brake on the end? Seems silly
Silencer Shop now has the Silencerco Harvester in stock
- Thread starter batoncolle
- Start date
No but I agree on the brake. As long as it did not increase the sound, I would have preferred they dropped the brake and shortened the can, but I am no silencer builder so what do I know.
Regarding the other comments on QD I am optimist, and I feel we will pass hunting with a suppressor either this year or next. Outside of the length, the Harvester is perfect for that application, but I plan to use it open spaces so I can live with the length. Weight is my first concern with a can, and this one fits the bill. Even QD titanium cans (once you factor in the weight of the mount) will weigh close to double the Harvester. I can also use this can on my AK, AR, 243, and 308, for around $600. To do the same with a QD can will cost me double or more. Plus I think the Harvester will be more robust from a rapid shooting session as compared to a titanium can - you know if I am ever faced with a heard of little piggies in the dark of the night.
I was ready to pull the trigger on a 30 cal Titanium can, but unless I see decibel numbers showing the Harvester to be loud, I am picking it up.
Looks like Griffin Armament is releasing a competitor to the Harvester in the .300 category.

I need to see the Harvester and any of Griffin's cans on a meter. I really don't like not having meter numbers on a can.

Yep which is why I am waiting to hear decibel numbers on the Harvester which hopefully will not be much longer.
griffin's can is 7075 Al apparently. id rather see one in person then get meter numbers. everyone makes the same 25-30 db reduction.
I mean nothing is wrong with threaded suppressors.... its just I almost broke an arm plus the rifle trying to take off a rocksett muzzle brake a few years ago. So the hassle of having QD and threaded suppressors is not worth the time. Taking on and off mounts is stupid. Thats why I preferred the Saker as it could mount on my AAC mounts. I don't ever have to worry about not able to mix match my AAC and Silencerco with my 2 AR15s.
If you already have the mounts that makes sense
Saw this video posted on Arfcom. No sound measurement equipment, but it includes the Harvester along with the AAC 762SDN-6, Specwar, Surefire 762-RC, Thunderbeast, Specwar, and YHM Ti. I thought the Harvester sounded pretty good and definitely quieter than the Surefire before it.
