2024 5.56 Suppressor Comparison

[@jeffmiller5857]

I know it's just video but the Fat Cat, T3, Sierra 5 seem to consistently be the most toned down, IMO. You make a good point that they're all about the same in suppression, at the end of the day. A lot of effort went into this one. Good work.

[@CalebDowning]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the feedback 👊🏻

[@superbeast7738]

Same.

[@lurtiskoe]

yup i was gonna say the fat cat, the sierra 5, seemed the most toned. surprisingly in the flash/backpressure the griffin hrt surprised me. rounds ejected were like 3:30

[@EBR556]

I agree. Those three stood out the most to me also, especially on the shorter barrels.

[@dam00k]

This is the video that anybody considering a 5.56 can should watch. Really covered all the bases without spewing boring specs and meaningless decibel readings.

[@CalebDowning]

Well thanks man 😎👊🏻

...meaningless decibel readings? You sure bout that champ?

[@DrunkDrynasty]

@@jamesstephenson2346 See Pew Science for info on how solely measuring peak DB is misleading. I think that’s what he means..

[@Omaba_Baba]

Griffin I like, but the YHM Fat Cat is the clear winner, just because its so short, so affordable, and had no noticeable flash on the 1st round, and the sound seeeeeemed to be bit more dampened on the Fat Can and the T3.

[@CalebDowning]

Man, the Fat Cat seems to have the votes for now 🤔 It’s a dang good can for certain 👍

[@Omaba_Baba]

@CalebDowning it's really hard to tell because a condenser mic is still, as good as it is, not an accurate representation of real life. My Sennheiser 650 and Sennheiser DAC desktop Amp enabled me to hear them well, but there's still clipping. The flow thru can was loudest, IMO. Hope you can get a Gemtech Abyss and Maybe a PTR Vent someday, to test and give us your opinions. TY for the informative and entertaining content, as always, Mr. Downing.

[@CalebDowning]

@Omaba_Baba Ya the only way to really tell the difference in most cases is in person. Hopefully we can get some more cans down the road to add to the line up 👌 Thanks for your support man ! 😎👊🏻

[@pjmoore6214]

7.5" is crazy. I can't imagine owning an AR with a shorter barrel length than some men are naturally endowed.

[@Libertarian_Neighbor]

The Sierra 5 sounded the best to my ears. The Griffin Dual Lok had the best ejection pattern.

Love my Sierra 5 on my 13.9, now I’m looking at the HRT or Dual Lok 5 for my 10.3. Thinking me going with the Sierra 5 despite the claims was a great decision according to your tests.

[@CalebDowning]

I know there were some QC issues with some of the Sierra 5’s but mine is running great. I’m glad you got a good one and it’s working well for you. If I was going to buy either the HRT or the Dual Lok 5 then I’d do with the Dual Lok 5. It simply impressed me a little more over the HRT, especially on backpressure.

[@cdsmit27]

​@CalebDowning Would it be fair to say that DA has resolved the issues by now with the Sierra cans?

[@CalebDowning]

@cdsmit27 I really don’t know. I never had any issues with my Sierra. I’m not sure if it was a portion of those cans that were messed up or if all of them were supposed to be out of spec.

[@blackpaw254]

Thanks a bunch for all the work you put into this comparison. Really helps out. I’m really surprised how well the Fat Cat did for its size, etc.

Awesome man! Glad to help 😎👊🏻

[@georgesmith4639]

What do you think of the Gemtech Abyss 556 ?. mrgunsngear loved it.

[@zeedaysurvival1975]

It seemed the Surefire Socom 556 had a lot of blow back compared to most of the others where the Dual-Lok 5 looked to have the least. It also seemed to me that the YHM cans both had a bit of a higher pitch over the rest that had a lower tone, granted they are the smaller cans. 5.56 is just hard to make quit and any sound reduction is a good thing. I do not have a dedicated 5.56 can, I run a 30 cal Sandman S and a Dual-Loc 7 on my 11.5 and 16 in 5.56 guns and both in my mind sound good with less blowback. Good vid and thanks for making it.

[@CalebDowning]

That’s some really great observations. You are absolutely right that 5.56 is hard to suppress. It’s pretty amazing that any of these cans sound as good as they do. Thanks for the feedback man, that was good 😎👊🏻

[@Jeremy-eh2qi]

Between me and my friends we have a LOT of cans. In my experience the Dual-lok5 and the sierra 5 are very close with the DL5 edging it out in sound. The DL5 has significantly less backpressure than the S5. The HRT and S5 are very close all around for sound, flash, and BP. However, I prefer the HRT tone. The Fat can is impressive for it's size and small cans inherently have less backpressure, but on shorter guns it's noticeably louder. The KGM or w/e my buddy got super cheap and I understand why they were blowing them out. Not a favorite at all. No experience with the t3. The new turbo k takes the bite off, but I would suggest a polonium k or recce5k instead. The RC2 is still pretty amazing even if a little loud now days (still only a few db). Cat is doing interesting things. The velos is also a great can. The LPM torch is good too. I would like to see some .30 cal reviews. Can do a lot of content with a .30 can. How they sound on 556, 300 supers/subs, .308, and even more niche stuff ammo. A review of the Anthem S2, CAT ODB, HRT7 would rock. Also interested in the recce5k, cat wb, and polo k. I hear rumors some companies not know for 3d printed flow through are designing some cool stuff. Though that may be a way out as I know they do a LOT of testing before putting traditional cans to market so I know a new technology will take them longer to get to where they are comfortable.

[@ericsrussell]

Did you ever complete a comprehensive review on the Replicator Ventus 556? And if you were to pick Ventus or the KGM R556?

[@CalebDowning]

I haven’t gotten any more Replicator cans in. For the price, the KGM R556 would be a good choice. The one big downside of the KGM is that you are tied to their muzzle devices.

[@scott2228]

Another great video. I bought a suppressor. Then I quickly purchased 4 more. It’s addictive AF. My favorite so far is the Otter Creek OCM5 shot on 18” SPR and 12” Gordon. Not sure what my next cam will be.

[@CalebDowning]

Dang man, I keep hearing about Otter Creek cans 🤯 I really need to pick one up here soon. What other calibers are you needing to suppress?

[@markmasztal2253]

Love it brother. Thanks so much. Missed you at Gun Con.

[@CalebDowning]

Yo Mark! Wish I could have been there… maybe another year. Folks really seemed to pick up on that Fat Cats performance 👌

[@BigJDinSC]

Looks to me like the YHM Fat Cat may be the best use of funds. I’m pretty sure it’s the cheapest in the lineup. Sound suppression seems on par, flash reduction looked as good or better than others, and the shortest length seems like a big benefit.

[@CalebDowning]

Very astute observation. YHM cans are solid options 👍

[@cbrooks2767]

I have the FC that fits perfectly into my 12" handguard and it looks and sounds amazing for minimal added overall length. Flash reduction is amazing. But at that price point something has to give, and that's back pressure. It definitely isn't a flow silencer, but that's what adjustable gas blocks are for. I love it!

[@CalebDowning]

@cbrooks2767 Good point man. And yes, a good adjustable gas systems can do a significant job at tuning up a can. I love my Rifle Speed Gas System as well as my adjustable BCGs.

[@BigJDinSC]

@@cbrooks2767 my guess is that your running an 11.5” barrel with a MI suppressor-width handguard, is that right?

[@cbrooks2767]

@BigJDinSC mine is a 11.5 inch barrel inside a 12" Aero handguard. Wish I could upload a pic to show the narrow part of the silencer in the handguard. Only the fat part shows and is the same size as the outer diameter of the handguard. Just beautiful!

[@slowmo7500]

I have a Sierra 5 and an Rc2. (Have not had any of the reported issues some people had with their Sierra5)The Sierra5 is super comfortable to shoot without ear pro. It’s definitely quieter than my RC2. I love them both but the S5 is quieter/less pop for sure. Do a review on the Lazarus 6 please!

[@CalebDowning]

Agreed 👍 I’ll see what I can do about the Lazarus 6 🤔

[@mac7977]

I really like my Griffin Armament Recce series. The taper mount gives me the least POI shift with each of my different length rifles. Good video.👍🏽

[@KidCorporate]

Recce was a hot peice when they were released and still a workhorse can today. I actually really like the griffin taper mount system, I learned to put hi temp anti seize on the threads but not the taper geometry and haven't had a can carbon lock OR back off under fire since.

[@joelsdobermans45]

Which one has the best recoil reduction?

[@CalebDowning]

I think they are all pretty similar on that aspect. I don’t notice any one being better than the other for that.

[@joelsdobermans45]

@CalebDowning thanks for the response some I have been trying to decide on a suppressor for a while. You video showed me maybe I just need to take the leap and realize no perfect one

[@CalebDowning]

@joelsdobermans45 That is a very sound decision actually. Sometimes all these options can give you analysis overload 🤯

[@b-n-psportscards8374]

I know it’s hard to judge sound levels in a video, but to me, the Fat Cat seemed the quietest of all the guns w/ suppressors tested. You mentioned it would typically be the loudest with a shorter barrel and that you’d never shoot it without hearing protection, but it really stood out as the quietest in this demonstration IMO.

[@CalebDowning]

That’s the overwhelming opinion here in the comments. It really did a great job. For its size I was very pleased with it.

Hey Sean 👊🏻😎 that Fat Cat has definitely been the most mentioned can out of this line up. It’s quite the under dog, or “cat” 😅

[@antiontaylor262]

Great review. Thanks for the non suppressed shots before & after to establish that baseline we talked about. I'll be going back & listening again with headphones but with a standard speaker, I thought the Fat Cat & Sierra 5 both had higher pitches but seemed to sound quieter, which is a little odd to my ear as lower pitches generally sound better. The actual sound level of them just sounded lower. I liked those 2 & the Dual Lok 5 best. I have a Reece 5 in jail or I'd be giving all 3 serious consideration (the Fat Cat & Sierra 5 were previously on my short list). The Dual Lok 7 is currently on my short list for a dedicated.30cal option however. Love the lineup review & hope you put one together for .30cal & 9mm as I'm on the market for each, here in the very near future. I have my hybrid (R45) based on your review but a similar demo of some 36 or 46 cans would be great as well, understanding limitations of having all at the same time. Thanks again.

Personally, I wasn't as much a fan of the Griffin or Surefire cans. Don't get me wrong each suppressor appealed differently based on configuration, but I just didn't necessarily appreciate the tone of either of those brands on most firearms tested. I am a SOT as well, so I have quite a few cans of my own and shot more than a few brands already. I have at least 6 different brand of cans in varying calibers, but no rush for those I mentioned. I do have two of those KGM cans in stock and will be testing one on a SIG Virtus 5.56 SBR as that thing is a gas hog, unbearable with a AB Warthog 5.56 can, it sounds great but you will be choking to death. If I was picking from this lineup, I would just say get a YHM they work, although I am a fan of B&T products but I'm biased as they are local for me (Tampa, FL).

[@CalebDowning]

[@CalebDowning]

It sounds surprisingly good to me 👍

Fat Cat

[@CalebDowning]

Interesting 🤔 I’ve never really looked into that can but it does seem very similar in concepts to the Fat Cat.

[@Michael-pl1if]

@@CalebDowning, yes sir! Double the price and heavier but they are making some bold claims 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Danielness17]

I have the t3 but that fat cat is one impressive can for the size

[@CalebDowning]

For sure 👌

Surprised you didn't have the velos on here

​@CalebDowning I just got one havmt mounted it yet though. Picked it up and duel lok 5 at the local gun store.

[@CalebDowning]

Fat cat, and not just because I don’t win one lol but that can is so surprising. And looks great on shorter ARs.

To this listener the Fat Cat was best at sound suppression.
