If your cherry bomb got stuck inside the suppressor, you over-torqued the suppressor onto the cherry bomb. It is designed to expand with heat to create a seal. Over-torquing it will get it stuck. It only needs to be hand tightened slightly after you meet resistance
A good question indeed! So I carry a few things with me, even to the range. One is LocTite. So a couple drops of LocTite on the threads of the barrel theb thread on the can with stuck cherry bomb hand tight (solid hand tight, not barely on), and let it sit while I shot a different can. Then unscrew the can.... got to be patient! I have been impatient on other occasions with other cans/mounts and it just means starting over and waiting longer!
Thank you for this review. You stated at the end of the video that the Trash Panda was the quietest. What was your impression of it? (I have heard that the TONE is lower, from other reviewers).
I will do another review with my SDN-6. Talk about huge POI shift! In regards to the wrench flats on the muzzle device, it’s a love it or hate thing. I love it. In theory, I’ll only mount it once so should never need those flats.... I actually wish Q would ditch the flats at the back of the Panda, the socket flats in the front are plenty and it would be shorter and cleaner.
I'm thinking about doing some "short reviews" of individual cans, trying to keep a video under 4 minutes, with pros and cons, disassembly or mounting and how it sounds.
Pretty close- that tells me that it won't change POI much between suppressed and unsupressed ~on this particular rifle~ but it's light weight probably is a big part of that.
They're all good for different things. I love the Trash Panda for being so light and versatile, but the M4-02 is low profile, short, effective and tends to give very good accuracy. So for a dedicated .223 bolt gun, especially if weight isn't an issue, I'd stick with my old M4-02. But I love the Trash Panda, and it has found a home on my 65. Grendel Howa Mini Action.
