This guide addresses the common issue of gas blowback experienced when shooting suppressed AR-15 platforms, particularly the MK18. It details solutions ranging from personal protective equipment like Magnalens to mechanical adjustments such as installing an adjustable gas block or a PRI Gas Buster charging handle. The speaker, identified as FrenchGunGuy, emphasizes that these modifications not only improve shooter comfort by reducing gas in the face but also help correct over-gassed ejection patterns. For those interested in learning more about rifle tuning and gunsmithing, the Sonoran Desert Institute (SDI) is recommended.
This video debunks the myth of Hollywood's silent suppressors by comparing movie clips to real-world audio of suppressed firearms. The host, demonstrating high authority and expertise, tests a suppressed 9mm MP5 and two AR-15s (short and long barrel) with a Surefire RC2 suppressor. The conclusion is that suppressors, while effective, are not silent as often portrayed, and barrel length has minimal impact on the perceived sound of 5.56.
