@SFC B is out of pocket, I think, but when we talked last weekend the sale was still on.

Me walking into Scheels on the 15th:

Right? Im trying to negotiate 2

So, my logic is that I'd be halfway to a good .22 rimfire suppressor with the $200 I'm saving. I'd be saving another $200 on that by not having to pay for that tax stamp... so why not buy a 5.56 flow-through setup, too?

Ya, but what can will you get? I don’t even know what Scheel’s stocks.

Decent selection of the big brands:

I’m getting an Omega36, probably a Velos 5.56 eventually.

I'm probably going to try to grab a nomad Ti XC if they are in stock locally. MN hosers, hands off!

Is this real?? I mean they have a .22LR surpressor for 299.00 so there would be no extra stamp fee on my cost?

I spoke w local sales guy in store here....has to be centerfire and has to be $600 or more for the promo to apply.

Sounds like they can special order in if not in stock

I've been looking/thinking about one of those as well.

But I also have a homie, who has a homie, who has a homie (one of those type things) who's involved with developing a can for a company in North Idaho. I like the theory of it, but want to see how it works out.

TLDR: I only want to spend the money on one more can. Hit the sale or hold out? I dunno.

OK, so I'm thinking 30cal suppressor... grab and go during the sale so might as well go Ti

I have a rifle that's already threaded 1/2-28.

Local Scheels has Silencerco Scythe Ti and DeadAir Nomad Ti XC...price is the same.

Pros / cons of one vs the other?

What will you be mounting it on? Heard great things about both, but Scythes have a reputation for coming apart when mounted in a short barreled magnum.

Anecdotally, the Nomad won't detach at the second weld and launch itself 50 yard down rage. The Scythe, however...

I put an original Nomad on a 6.5 Creed and will soon be running it on a .25-7PRC. Been pretty pleased with it so far but I haven't shot enough suppressors to truly appreciate the difference.

 

[Wyhunter]

Yep...has to be at a store in the state where you live. The sale is March 15 through the 23rd I believe....just got given the heads up on this the other day.

Sucks for us Wyoming guys

6.5 manbun...currently at 22" threaded.

My plan is a lightweight, suppressed rifle that could be good for deer, antelope etc and also be an option for my daughters to shoot as they grow into it.

Just started them on. 22lr at the range this weekend and we all had a blast.
