No way. My cyclone is rated to 10" Specwar has to be shorter than that.

 

[chance]

That has got to be loud hahah I love it

 

[Olchevy]

Hmm. I had considered building a PTR style sbr mainly beacuse I never had seen short barrels for AR-10's....

My little hamster wheels are turning now.

"Ratings" aren't too scientific.

For years silencerco refused to warrant 44 magnum for their 45 cans. Eventually I sent them a 44 magnum rifle and they tested the Osprey out and approved it for me. They said they tested it by checking to see how hot the suppressor was with their hands.

That's funny. The Cyclone is rated for 308 down to a 10" barrel. No other information is given. I have been told by AAC employee's that it isn't rated for any other caliber no matter the barrel length. I was told that shooting my Cyclone on my 26" 5.56 barrel is not recommended and would not be warranted.

That makes no sense, I don't think I have heard of a can that is a 7.62 can that wasn't rated for sub calibers like 5.56, that's weird

yep, I was told the cyclone was rated for 308 and 308 only.

being that the specwar is warranted for 308 Rum, I wonder if the 308 length requirement is just to ensure powder burn to prevent baffle erosion

Here is the spec sheet:

I would bet 10.5 is ok, but they're probably trying to protect themselves from warranty work and such.

I understand they warranty to cover themselves but if something happened how would a company know how long of a barrel it was on? I mean if it flys apart I'm only sending them back the broken pieces, I'm not sending the whole gun. Or am I missing something here.

I'm not arguing your point but I wouldn't want to have to lie about something like that

Oh no me either, the way I look at if they went through the trouble to test a specify a certain length, then more than likely that's for my safety, so I wouldn't venture outside those parameters.
