ATEC Suppressor experience, problems, and troubleshooting thread

[Masperjay]

Apologies for necro'ing the thread.

I am having issues with my ATEC Marksman , which is supposed to be their 'military' model.

twice has it cooked off red loctite , and now I'm stuck with a very expensive direct thread can which I have traditionally shared between two rifles in it's QD State which is what drew me to it.

The suppressor is seized on the Marksman brake after about 120rds of shooting 7.62 Ball, and the brake itself is not on the rifle. it's stuck in the can.

A little dissapointing , if I'm completely honest.

no amount of heat or penetrative oil is looking like it will release this , I tried to put the can in a vice and wrap the Brake threads as the locking collar has come off , but at the risk of marring the threads further than I already accidentally have , I stopped.

I really hope I'm not lumped with this as direct thread now , lest I would have just bought an ODL.

Not like it was cheap!

That being said , I Can't pin Stager for their customer service - They've been nothing but excellent to date and sent me a wrench for the collar at no charge - so this is far from a bashing post.
