    Maybe it only applies to shorter barrels as the velocity (pressure) of the gas is higher at the start? Not sure.

    My 50bmgs don't go any faster with the suppressor but man the recoil goes through the roof, even with 6.85 kgs hanging off the front of it....

    Philipo will be pleased to hear the Steyr claimed another victim last weekend

    My Barnard claimed its first eyebrow, with blood too, not mine either
