The Griffin Armament Optimus

[Leshaire]

The Optimus ships with a number of bells and whistles. Here is the breakdown:

• Serialized tube containing 5 removable baffles
• Pistol booster (Nielsen Device) with one piston
• 9mm (.38”) and 5.56mm (.22”) End Caps
• Interior “Retaining” Cap
• Taper Mount “Rifle Extension Tube”
• Rifle Blast Baffle
• Griffin Taper Mount Minimalist Brake
• Shim Kit

yea the only thing i would reccomend gettign immediately that isn't included in the fixed barrel spacer, so you can use the front portion on your 22lr firearms.

It definitely seems more versatile than the Mystic X. Had I not already bought one of those, I'd be looking very, very hard at this. As it is, though, it doesn't do anything for me that another .30 cal can wouldn't, since I already have the modularity with the Mystic.

this is true. Liberty has some stiff competition lately.

It's both sad and cool, though. Dave was blazing trails no one even thought about with some of their stuff...and now that he's cut the trail, other people are coming down it. He's really a victim of his own success....which is probably a blessing and a curse.

if you used the piston with the booster spring instead of the spacer, then the pressure will push the can forward, allowing it to then pull the can back towards the gun which puts stress on the threads. When not shooting on a semi auto pistol a fixed barrel spacer replaces the boosters spring so that it wont happen.

On a 22 its not really enough pressure to push the can around, but its best practice to have the spacer on there.

I just can't wait to see companies trying to sell 2 silencers in one start combining crazy stuff like an octane bolted to the back of a salvo.

Since you mentioned Salvo, I'll be getting one in beginning of Dec.

For yourself or for sale?

I've got access to a tow behind clay thrower that auto oscillates and launches from a remote switch. And a church that lets us shoot from their parking lot.
