Since the announcement of the new ATF bar code system, we've received numerous emails regarding the status and use of these new bar codes. There are many rumors floating around the internet and this post will cover some of the facts behind the bar code system and answer some of the questions we've received to date.
The AR-15 is a gas operated rifle that relies on a portion of the expanding gases produced during the firing of a round to cycle the action. Adding a silencer to the muzzle creates extra back pressure that goes above and beyond the original design consideration - a situation referred to as "overgassed". Gemtech has an option for you to consider - the Suppressed Bolt Carrier.
Fundamentally, there are only two ways to effectively attach a silencer to the end of your rifle. The first is by means of a direct thread interface. Simply thread the silencer on until it is tight, and you are good to go. The second method is by way of some sort of muzzle device attachment. Usually, this mount is attached semi permanently to the muzzle of the host rifle and gives a consistent style of mount for the silencer. We sell silencers that use both types, and have found that each type has positives and negatives that are dependent on the customer's use case.
In this article, we will address frequently asked questions and provide
insight on important, but often overlooked, aspects of suppressor ownership. This is a must read article for new suppressor owners who elect to have their suppressors shipped or can't make it to the shop.
