I can't stand how suppressing said weapon makes it cumbersome as hell. I've continually gone down in size with each progressive can purchase because i absolutely hate the added length that comes with a 9" can. My ears can't tell the difference in 136db and 139db despite it being logarithmic and outside of hunting i will also always have ears on. The thing about "silencing/suppressing" 5.56 is that it's inherently hard to do so due to port noise. They meter very well, especially the K cans, and the end user reports almost always seem to be astonished at the tone when said K cans are on SBR setups, which is amazing. That's not to disparage the other manufacturers, but YHM's current baffle designs are proving to be formidable in almost every aspect. If i'm not looking to drop $1000+ on a can there is nothing for me personally that any other can does that YHM's offerings don't and at the given price point it's not even a comparison anymore. My train of thought has now shifted to YHM for everything less budget allows for the gold standard which to me is TBAC. And will be using the resonator K on the 7 SS come next hunting season. The only real downside would be if you're looking for the lightest possible can given the criteria, in which there is only one solution to me and that's TBAC.Ĭurrently we own a TBAC 30CB9, Omega, Hybrid, and i've got a Turbo K and Resonator K on file.
YHM TURBO T2 KEYMO FULL SIZE
If you want full size 5.56 the Turbo T2 is also a great offering especially now that all of YHM's cans are 1-3/8ths thread spec so you can use Plan B. Resonator K has solid readings from a K can too on a 16" 5.56 and by all indications is going to be just like the Turbo K in that it punches well above it's volume considering it's size. With plan B the Turbo K is 4.8" in length brings 11.5" 5.56 in the 139/140db range and is short as hell. Then shot it more when it cooled.įor the money i don't think anything comes close to YHM. We’ve been doing 200rd belts through them with a SAW to the point the barrel droops. We’ve fired ~2300rds through one on a MK18, half with full auto 30rd mag dumps and the other half semi auto and then did ten 30rd mags in a row full auto and five 30rd mags in a row full auto as fast as the mags could be changed, all of those ~2300rds being fired over only maybe 3hrs. The Helios QD silencer is pretty much impossible to kill by any conventional method.
And like all of our 5.56 silencers it has a 7.62 bore so it helps with backpressure and ear sound and also gives you some margin of error if your barrel's a bit nonconcentric. All the joints sit on shallow tapers and since it's DMLS 718 Inconel which is 3D printed, the silencer is perfectly concentric. The standard front cap allows it to work like a traditional silencer and the vented front cap allows it to work as an "out the front" vented silencer similar to OSS/TDS/NG2/MM/etc but better, just by changing the frong cap out. It comes as a kit with a 1/2x28 direct thread mount, a 5/8x24 direct thread mount, a QD adapter which will work with any 1.375x24 Omega pattern mount, a standard front cap, and a vented front cap. Here it is on a 5.5" 7.62x39 firing in full auto and semi: andĪnd here it is on 10.5" MK18 doing a full auto mag dump: It's a very very well balanced attribute suppressor, as best I can determine, for what I wanted for this project.(not sure why it automatically embedded the videos) Ultimately, the QDC won out in my selection process. There will be a few new things you will see at SHOT which will be cooler than a KAC QDC. I literally have a NIB Socom Mini 2 sitting on the shelf that got shelved for this project because I wanted a bit less backpressure and a few more dB attenuation, and less carbon locking. I own multiple examples of Surefire cans from the 556-212, to the RC 762, to the new Mini 2. The Turbo K was a winner for price, dB, and weight, but that was not enough to tip the scales for me away from the KAC.Īs I stated, cost was not something I really considered in any way. The Turbo K falls down here compared to the KAC QDC, as well. Having a mounting system that is not integral to the suppressor is a bad idea, imo.Įverything I've seen indicates the Turbo K has rather substantial backpressure. A friend of mine has a Vox and Plan B, and has had them walk apart. Further, I wanted a suppressor with no critical components that could walk loose/unscrew. I don't own any surefire cans just TBAC and SiCo but i i've got a turbo K and went with Plan A for mount compatibility and reduced length.
It's to note keymo is heavy and expensive and while it's an intuitive mounting system it lengthens the Turbo K to nearly 6" from the looks of it and just factoring in Keymo length.
