    Ref Post 4 Man wish I could foresee the lotto numbers . If you sell enough of anything you will have a or some failures . It's the putting right that counts. The Op wasn't slagging anyone. @Looseunit Umm your image name does show up if you mouse over it though

    I personally think it is an interesting picture and would be keen to know what caused it to fail.
    Loseunit seems to have played it fair by not naming the brand.
    While a fair number of the regular posters can tell whose it is I doubt 3/4 of the membership would see anything other than a black can.
    There seems to be some history causing a stink
    I am now curious as to where lose unit works

    Fluffy handcuffs just get me going :p

    Thanks for posting. I found it interesting. All items can and do fail.
    People need to be less sensitive and stop reading bull shit into everything.

    ever consider it those that are bashing are the ones with the problem?

    if I pumped gas for a job there would be no question , is it jealousy? get a fuken life , not everything in this world is a conspiracy , I posted what I thought was an interesting pic , no mention of manufacturers or service . that from it what you want , so everyone that posts a pic of a stuck car is picking on Toyota? cracked cases Federal? sometimes on forums people just like to share shit , if you cant handle it without starting shit read a mag where you cant have any input . forums are for sharing info , experiences , stories and knowledge

    get over where I work , we fit a lot of these suppressors and have no beef with anyone .
    I know where you work and it has never been an issue nor is it in this instance.
    I think maybe you need to get over yourself? Pumping gas maybe better for your id?
    I have never commented on any of your above problems so there is more than one antagonist here? Does this not suggest that maybe your posting is the common denominator and requires more finesse?
    The fact that there has already been a post suggesting they would not purchase product from the suppressor manufacturer implies that the brand HAS been tarnished by YOUR post.

    If your referring to mine it was meant to be tongue in cheek, perhaps that didnt come across in the text.

    Somethings gone amiss and Im sure the item will be replaced and the damaged one taken back by the manufacturer and analysed. Main thing is nobody lost an eye.

    S hit I just read 3 pages thinking there might have been some thought in to what might have happened
    I don't care who made the can, nor would I hold it against them but I'm very curious to know what might have happened and why. Should be beneficial for all parties involved I would have thought.

    And if someone decides to check their gear for problems before losing an eye or dying because they see the post? Think you a just string up shit myself . I posted about a fuji camera in the photo section . Sure hope I don't send canon broke . Stop reading something into it . It's not there .
