What does /k/ think of flow-through suppressors?
I'm a bit out of the loop, so apologies in advance if this has been discussed to death already

is that some new kind of dragon dildo
Mite b cool. Looks like it would be absolutely heinous to clean though.
>>29412645
i agree, I think you would have to buy a sonic cleaner and run some pretty clean powder through it
Seems like a solid idea if it works. Suppressor blowback is a real issue and reducing it would definitely not be a gimmick.
>>29412614
pretty fookin' cool
but you could probably do the same with a spring-loaded door that will close and contain some of the pressure for a small length of time
not even sure which would be worse for barrel harmonics, jet engine fins rotating of a baffle sliding forward?

i suppose a baffle compressing against a spring slapping forward (or gently pressing forward) would mitigate recoil just like rotating fins
>>29412887
What about a rhythmic slapping?
>>29412937
I'm sure that can be accomplished.
When the gas compresses the spring by moving the baffle and thereby trapping some of the gas, it will surely spring back into place.
A few considerations could limit this effect, namely:
>short length of travel for the sliding baffle
>bleed-off holes exposed to the trapped gasses
Pointless video. What does reliable auto fire tells us? Fucking nothing relevant to what the suppressors is supposed to do.
OSS has been doing the flow through can for a while now. I've heard they deliver on the reduced back pressure, but they don't suppress all that great. Funnily enough, IIRC the founder jut resigned as well as all the top engineers due to disagreements between what they offer and what their investors want them to make.

Flow-throughs are a bad choice for civilian ownership. Their real claim to fame is the greatly reduced backpressure.
>heavy
>loud
>generally more expensive than regular cans, which are already expensive
But they have a niche where they're pretty good.
>machine guns and magnum caliber precision rifles
You'll never get either of those anywhere close to hearing safe with any can design, you'll generally never shoot subsonic ammo through them, and the greatly reduced backpressure will help with accuracy for the precision rifle and keeping a sane cyclic rate for the machineguns.

Would it be possible to make a suppressor out of a dragon dildo?

Stick one on the end of a gun and fire and report back with the results.

I would say that being able to fire an AR-15 in a 10x10 concrete room on full auto without earpro is pretty damn effective
