Olddawg Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 I started a thread in General Topics not realizing this was here.Blame it "New to Site'..Titled it Suppressor OwnershipHere's the last post I'd like you all to see:Been doing some research on suppressors.Narrowed down to a few I like.Now I'll ask your opinions on these and suggestions on others.It will be mounted to my Marlin 70 for right now.Main use is 'plinking' and varmint removal.And of course, not waking up the family as I do so.It's final home will be either a S&W MP15-22 or a HK416D.Leaning towards the HK..Yet, that's another topic for later.The Suppressors;Spectre 2 looks rather nice and hits the top my list.Around $350SS build, rated for Full Auto, Multiple CaliberKodiak TL comes in second.Only because it's $50 more for what seems to be the same as above.SS Sparrow comes in third.Believe dedicated 22LR only (not seeing if it could do mag's).Same pricing as the Kodiak for what seems to be a mix steel/SS build.Then it goes to Aluminum builds;ACC Pilot2$300Gemtech Outback2$275All of the above look like quality builds.All the above seem like they would do what I'm looking for.Opinions any one?

Microgunner Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 I owned a Gemtech Outback II.It worked reasonably well and was lightweight but could not be disassembled for cleaing.You had to soak it to clean it. Wouldn't buy another because of this drawback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olddawg Posted June 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Thank you!Are you familiar with both?Sparrow admits to being a mix buildSpectre does not.Assumption being, Spectre is, just doesn't say it.Or, I just haven't read it yet...Also have not read if Sparrow can handle 'mix' .22's (Hornets, Mag's, etc..)If both are equal...Then it comes down to cleaning.I'll spend the extra $50 if it means some ease of cleaning!

imschur Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 I only shoot .22lr.The Spectre II disassembles like the Sparrow. I have a Sparrow on hand and Spectre II waiting for approval from the feds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndigoWolf Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 Kodiak TL is the one I'm looking at. Friend has one ... easy take down to clean, quieter, light weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhgunnut Posted September 30, 2014 Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 I own the an Outback and love it. As for the ability to disassemble it has never been an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
