Well, my form 3 cleared today. Went to the shop and they let me thread my can on to take a few pics. Now I just have to play the waiting game until the form 4 clears.

How dare you show such impatience when the boot of your master is so light upon thine neck?

Looks great.

What barrel/gas system length do you have?

What handguard? I have no need for rails on top or sides.

Awesome rifle. Is the silencer a Griffin Armament, but what model? What qualities of the silencer helped you make your decision? I have been shopping for one and think I should get a .300 Win Mag rated can so it will work on everything from .223 up to .300WM. I'm thinking a 5/8X24 direct thread so I don't have to get adapters for all my rifles? Then come the dB rating, weight, diameter, length, durability, cleaning ease and cost. I didn't list looks because I'll Cerakote it for hunting. I've been looking at the Griffin Armament RSTA which adds only 5.5" more to barrel length, 1.47" dia, 31dB+, easy cleaning, but it weighs 21 oz.

It's the Griffin Armament Recce 7. I liked it the most because of db's, length and weight. I also did not want a direct thread. I like the taper mount mount system it uses and they have a nice selection of mounts, brakes or comps that cam all be used with the suppressor. I will get one for 223, 243, 6.5 and 308.
