For the homies. A full break down on a retro HTA hunter town arms Guardian 9 pistol and fixed barrel suppressor.
the first 2 blast baffles are inconel steel, they handle those hot gasses first.. the remaining baffles down the stack are 7076 hardened aluminum. They maintain their shape until they get closer towards the endcap where they start becoming more shallow.
all the baffles, SSinconal, or aluminum regardless are typical tried and true k style baffles with a mouse hole. The click together right and hold form well.
there are a total of 8 k-style baffles all bored out to accept 9mm projos.
the construction of the tube is very simple and maintainable. It’s kind of old tech but tried and tried tech.
the suppressor comes with a 1/2x28 booster for unlocking auto-pistol, and 1/2x36 colt style fixedbarrel adapter. Think (scorpions or ar9 Mp5 etc)
run boosters on unlocking semi-Auto handguns
Run fixed barrel adapters on your non-locking fixed barrel carbines or those rare non-locking handgun.
the tube is simple. It does incorporate a clamshell type Device to help aid you in removing stick baffles after long shoots and dirty cans.Industry standard at this point.
so what we have here is a Gen 2 HTAGuardian 9 suppressor with a standard TPI booster for pistol play and a fixed adapter for rifle play
I have owned this can for about 3 years hand have shot it a lot. thousands of rounds. Pistols, rifles, limited full auto [ limited) with very minimal cleaning.
Business -
here’s the tube, aluminum hardened, it is threaded on both ends . One end is deeper threads to accept the mounting knuckle which actually has all of the SN NFA item engraved on it. Great design, essentially only this knuckle is the suppressor
next in line is the various mounting devices and the endcaps for this suppressor . Like mentioned above: this is the registered portion of the suppressor. Also shown is the 1/2x28 pistol booster to be ran on semi-auto pistols where the barrel unlock. Also shown is the fixed barrel adapter threaded 1/2x36 in order to be used on fixed rifle barrels Colt-style thread pattern. It incorporates no booster, or springs , that a unlocking auto pistol needs which affords it a smaller profile in regards to mounting
- registered mounting knuckle for suppressor
next is mounting knuckle utilizing the fixed barrel adapter to mount onto fixed Barrel rifles
next up is the mounting knuckle utilizing the 1/2x28 booster for use with modern un-locking designed semi auto 9mm hand guns
then all three booster options together
next up is going to be the two first-line SS Inconel “blast baffles” you want thread first in the stack to take that initial pressure out the muzzle. They are beefier however they take more of a beating. I will try and show they’re honest wear.
