The Advantages of Direct Thread Suppressors
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- In this video we're going over the three main reasons to consider using a direct thread suppressor system. If you don't need the convenience of a fast attach mount interface, using a direct thread adapter makes the whole package shorter, lighter, and simplifies tuning the gun.
You don't have to do it but you might wanna.

williamwolcott I only stop by once in awhile for said reason. All the things he clams is good is dead wrong in my book. If you don't mind completely one way streets no problem. As for me, I take ALL these so called UA-camrs channels as what they truly are Entertainment, howbeit not very good for the most part. Being older has some very good points it's a lot easier to spot them right off without falling pray to the Entertainment. It's called Bank Roll and Cash Cow for them when people fall for it.

@Hop Fun hack for suppressor. I'm a firefighter. I take my expired structural firefighting gloves home or after I tear them etc. They ROCK for handing suppressors. You cant feel a thing.

Ventum 762 Ti, certified June 3 and approved June 4. Form 4 individual. Them times is super fast.
Years before owning a silencer, the biggest issue I watched people have is having to constantly check and tighten their direct thread silencer. I use a direct thread on my hunting rifle since it'd only be 1-2 shots, but I'm still going to put a qd on it. All my other rifles have a qd/brake. You simply get a superior connection between the rifle and silencer. To me the other pluses are moot points in comparison. Excellent video as always though Hop.
Just use Rocksett
@@curgunner YUP just a drop or a few of it and you'll be all good
Nobody tell this guy that the QD mount uses the same “not secure enough” direct thread to attach itself to the barrel
Edit because people are dumb: your direct thread adapter has wrench flats and 100% can be torqued to spec and rocksetted just like your favorite flavor of QD muzzle device.
@@christofrini I guess no one told you that a muzzlebrake is torqued to a higher value than your hand tightened silencer will achieve?
@@christofriniI can rocksett a qd muzzle device.
"Hitchens's Razor" Haven’t heard that before but I’m going to start using it. He was a great man. Thanks for all the helpful advice Hop!
Love my Hux Flow 556. Takes all the thinking out of it for me.
If a DT suppressor has wrench flats, all you need is 25-30 ft lbs of torque and that puppy is never coming off. No rocksett even needed.
Perfect. Damn. Timing. Literally just got my first suppressor after a seven month wait and decided to direct-thread due to cost and weight savings.
For me it was partly cost (I don’t have much desire to buy additional muzzle devices for each different firearm I may want to suppress), partly a reluctance to be locked in to one specific muzzle device without knowing what I’ll think of it if/when I decide to shoot unsuppressed, and partly the worry that years down the road the suppressor industry will start chasing some other “latest and greatest” attachment method rendering mine obsolete and impossible to find replacements for.
Direct thread ain’t fancy, but it’s cheap, it works, and it will basically always be an option for whatever firearm I may want to put my can on, and that makes it a winner for me.
"Swore they would never buy a suppressor"
I did swear I would never buy a suppressor but that was only because I was never in one state long enough to actually wait for for the form 4 approval, but now that ATF has got its ass out of whatever chair they were sitting in I'm *absolutely* starting an SBR and Suppressor collection.
Jokes on me for moving then flying 6 states away and back in a single day to do the pickup and 4473 once it got approved (rather than transfer to the new state and restart the clock).
Took months to find a surefire 556 mini 2 in stock, took 5 days to get the can approved and another 7 days to ship and recieve from capitol armory. The fact they will ship cans to your residence is wild
guns shipped to your door is how it is in normal countries
@brad_1388_ Cool we aren't talking about guns though so. Also I clearly am talking about how it's wild that you have to go through the NFA/ATF process and get a tax stamp, yet they can literally just mail that item that took all of that extra bullshit to purchase right to your personal residence. I'm not a dumbass, I understand that gun laws in America vs other countries are very different, and i also realize as a veteran and avid shooter that said laws are ridiculous
@@carsonkoutsit’s just because companies like that have their ffl/sot valid in your home state. So they can act as the ffl you would have to pick up your can from. A long distance relationship, if you will
@msquared9605 Dawg a random FedEx driver walked up with a silencer and handed it to me. that's the part I'm saying is wild. In order for me to even walk out the door with it I have to pass the checks, yet some FedEx guy just drives around with it and brings it to me.
@@carsonkouts no I understand! But at the same time, how do you think the can or any other firearm gets delivered to your local ffl in the first place? I mean they’re not hiring armored vehicle money transport services lol
Good food for thought.
For me, blast baffle erosion on my 10.3 is somewhat of a concern, having a brake to act as a sacrificial baffle is appealing, despite the added weight. Yes form 4s are clearing in days now but replacing a suppressor is still a not insignificant extra expense.
As for transport, I don't care about making the gun super compact, I care about a hot can melting the foam in my case, being able to use a hi-temp suppressor pouch to remove and store the can after a range trip is very nice.
Meh, just get a suppressor with a lifetime warranty. Send it in for repair if it wears down
@@rilesmattix5217not really possible with 3D printed cans, which is why shopping warranties / style should actually be a big focus when buying these things.
You should buy a rifle
@@MellowFellowOfYellow SiCo is pretty good about fixing baffle stuff. Surefire, if you are willing to eat some cost, will basically send you a whole new can. I've stayed away from the 3d printed can for the same reason. It is good to remember though, just like a barrel, cans are a degradable / replacement item.

I like the idea of suppressor and brake companies trying to come up with a universal mounting system for their suppressors when they're all already sitting on a universal mounting system that is 1/2″x28 lol
The difference is that stuff like q plan b/atlas have a taper and more coarse threads so that it's easier to get on and off and not have to really torque the can down to shoot safely.

This is by far your most complicated video to understand. Thank you.
And I felt like I was lucky when I only had to wait 6 months for my can stamp back in 2019.
I waited 3 weeks. Only had an extra week added because I put myself as manufacturer and wasn't registered yet to make them. It put it to pending for a week. I learned you always put N/A unless it's an actual brand or manufacturer.
I know I waited 430 days for one in 22'
Thanks Hop! Great idea for a video.
The video from 1911 Syndicate is what led me to join the DT gang for life.
I too have a ‘tism for SAWC especially on the end of the barrel.
Griffin Armament has some of the best lock-up designs I've seen.
I'm happy with mine other than muzzle device cost.
I like having the taper or even an extra locking piece to prevent the can from walking off, mainly just because of my own neurotic concerns than any evidence so far that would happen. It's more of a peace of mind thing but I guess since the time investment isn't so intense now due to reduced waiting periods even that is less of a problem. Suppressor compatible muzzle devices keep the threads protected but that feels like reaching for a reason these things should exist. I guess I just like them because they're neat. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I've had my eye on the Griffin one that attaches to A2 flash hiders.
The B&T Rotex cans are available the same way. I have one on my Colt Commando. It's insanely sick
No complaints about the M4SD II. They have a new flow through now... So i guess that is my one complaint. Lol
My first 2 suppressors were the Hyperion & Hyperion K(Go Hard or Go Home) & they've only ever been DTed on the 6.75in & 9in 300blk out Virtusi I bought them for. The Virtus SD handguards being some of the only ones thicc enough to give me that Perfect Goodbye Horses level tuck, along with the ADAC lower doing everything better has kept me from moving on to the LT. Short Stroke Piston guns FTW
My only beef with direct thread is that just shooing it will unthread it. Easily solved with a left hand thread pitch but unfortunately those aren't standard. Biggest reason I'd go with another mounting solution
Just rocksett it
Rocksett / Red Loctite E638.
If 1 drop is applied, you can still remove it even without heating.
Had my silencer literally melt from overheating (had to legally dispose of it) - but the red loctite held! (silencer was hard to remove, not loose, stayed tight)
It was at a rifle match, and I the fool was using a dural/titanium silencer not meant for rapid fire (name was Jaki 1, made in finland).
It actually lasted 3-4 matches before the side of it just balooned out (no explosion, but metal changed color and the side was "inflated" like it was about to burst).
I went QD because I just wanted a 14.5 without making an sbr, but switching from keymo to the rearden attachment system was a night and day difference in terms of weight.
One huge bonus of direct thread suppressors is the option to pin and weld them to a short barrel to make a non-sbr. Like the Gemtech at @2:53, some even come pre-drilled for a pin. My last can cleared in 3 days!
I run KeyMo on my 13.7 short-stroke piston gun.
Also run keymo on a 13.7.
8:17 I have been trying to convey this since the 13.7" took off and it's felt like I'm the only person who got this. Thank you.
I feel like its not hard to understand that muzzle devices eat up volume and reduce performance while increasing weight
There are muzzle devices for 13.7” barrels that have a shank prior to the actual silencer attachment that both get you to 16” length AND don’t take up room in the can.
@ToastbackWhale That's even more stupid. That extended shank could have just been more barrel, and you'd have more velocity for the same OAL.
EDIT: This is the exact sort of thing that I was talking about in my original post. It's like no one takes 5 minutes to think about whether something is a good idea or not, they just send it.
I tried to explain this to a friend of mine who is recently in to guns and just got his first can(s). He works as an engineer for a car manufacturer and broke it down like this after trying and realizing that bigger isn’t always better. Weight on the end of the barrel is the same thing as unspiring mass on on your car. Oz’s = LBS.
Speaking for myself, I like the QD options for several reasons. Direct threaded suppressors can and do come loose, always at the worst possible time. Baffle and endcaps strikes you see on the forums are almost entirely do to the can coming loose under fire, direct thread or not.
The modern tapered adapters just don't do this (Plan B/Atlas, Huxwrx, CAT Spooky, Griffin EZ-lok, etc) because tapers induce a significant amount of friction into the system and increase their lockup under thermal stress. And that means it takes a lot less torque to keep them in place, and that matters for reducing your rifles dispersion pattern.
In terms of POI shift, I've not seen this with tapered adapters. If it's happening, the shift is at least one order of magnitude smaller than the dispersion of the rifle, and thus is irrelevant. I take suppressors off the guns every time I pack up at the range and put them back on when I get to the range as it makes transport a lot easier. I've never had an issue AFTER switching everything to tapered QD. I did suffer POI shift with loose cans and had a few close calls with direct thread.
I won't endorse a specific tapered adapter, as I think that's largely irrelevant and up to personal preference. What matters is that the taper is before the threads to prevent carbon locking and you tighten it by hand like you mean it when you put it on. If it doesn't take a wrench to get it off, man up and tighten it better next time. Even if I plan on leaving a suppressor dedicated to a rifle, I would still use a QD mount so that I would be absolutely sure it wouldn't walk off.
Yes I am aware that if you tighten the hell out of a direct thread you can largely prevent walk off, but we are talking upwards of 30-40ft-lb of torque to do that, and THAT much torque applied to the muzzle of the barrrel leaves the barrel in a stressed state. It won't hurt anything, you aren't strong enough to break a barrel this way, but it's well documented to cause the dispersion of the rifle to open up significantly because the stored stress within the barrel causes harmonic oddities when fired.
This also would necessitate not torquing the hell out of your muzzle device to keep it on, use Hot Lock or Rocksett or something, and apply minimal torque to snug it on in order to maintain accuracy.
So all of that is to say, QD > DT unless you really need the weight savings, and even then it's dubious because with the tiny muzzle device options and titanium adapters these days, you really aren't saving any weight anymore compared with the direct thread adapter your can came with.
Have both QD and DT and I like them both for their given application
I personally am a big fan of direct thread cans. It gives me an opportunity to not only sell a can, but get some gunsmithijg work pin and welding that can onto a barrel. Cucking the atf out of 200 bucks for an SBR is just icing on the cake
I've enjoyed the Q Plan B mounting system. Plan B suppressor mount + LPM (Liberty Precision Machine) Eclipse flash hider. Good combination that keeps length and weight down compared to many other mounting systems like the KeyMo and ASR.
Sometimes I don't really care about the content or anything out of a Hop video but the second I see Socko I smash that fucking like button.
Babe wake up. Hop uploaded direct thread suppressor pros.
I feel like everything after 8:25 was just a personal attack _stares at 13.9 P&W Keymo AR waiting for its $500 suppressor_
I got the same setup after the reddit hivemine told me it was the best mounting system. It adds around a quarter pound of weight at the muzzle compared to direct thread or a Rearden/Xeno QD....
@@ferntheyoutuber9960 My bigger concern was with long term compatibility- PSA ships all their P&Ws with Keymo flash hiders to my knowledge which means there will always be _someone_ making at least adapters for them
I had a two day wait time last month. They approved me on Sunday of Memorial Day weekend! Order your can!
Hop. Hop pls. Publish videos like this years ago pls.
This is info I largely figured out only after dicking around with QD for a couple years and now rocking a Rifle Gas 16" with a direct thread Turbo K.
Thanks for putting it out now though, I'm sending it to friends who don't yet have cans.
If you have a flow through can, qd makes sense so you can easily take it off every 1.5-2k rounds to clean the can.
Fixed front sight gas blocks are dope.
Hop is clearly saving the best for last, ASR.
Grabbed myself a rugged razor for my first can as a response to the wait times. One of my local ffl’s had one in stock still
The funniest thing about this is Hop got me thinking “I really need a quick detach system for rifles X and Y to use can Z.” Up to now I’ve been using direct thread only, partly because of potential tolerance stacking and partly because of weight/length/cost concerns. I don’t need fast swap capability; however, with a .30 caliber can there’s a good argument for some form of muzzle device on each of those rifles when they *don’t* have the can attached. And “NO” I am not buying a dedicated can for every freedom dispenser no matter how short the wait time is today.
Direct thread with wrench flats is by far the best budget mounting system.
The wrench flats allow you to torque it to a point where the idea of it walking loose, even on a belt fed machine, is literally a joke.
That same crushing torque ability also will give you the most consistent POI/POA shift in the game.
I like a taper mount personally.
I can see how direct thread would have it's benefits, but ive always seen and had issues with them walking off.
You can have a 1/2x28 or 5/8x24 nut machined to lock your direct thread can in place better. thread the nut all the way onto the barrel, thread your suppressor on over it and then back the nut up so that it tightens against the suppressor.
Got my can in 3 days from submittal! Was awesome.

Good morning everyone
I don't know shit about guns, if I use a direct thread suppressor on a bolt action rifle would I have to deal with all this tuning stuff? I like simplicity.
No tuning for bolt guns, just put it on and check your zero. Tuning is for semi autos.
All i want is one Hop beretta 1301 video even if it's a 30 minute schitzo rant on how shotguns aren't viable
I think qd makes sense for guys like yours truly who only own one can but a couple of host weapons. Being able to shoot 300blk,556,308 gives you a lot of options. However my next can will inevitably be a direct thread 556 can.
Wow big improvement to the cadence! Kudos
Knight's legacy NT4 mount is honestly the only non-threaded option that hasn't given me any issues with loosening or getting stuck. 3-lug is great but there's a lot of crappy knock-off variants that just aren't safe. My personal go-to is threaded options w/ centering taper collars (Mk12 can or similar modern options, like Q's and the knock-offs).
Just bought a DD sound guard, average wait time as per ATF site says 39 days now. People are stocking up.
Only got a 30 year old H&K tube and I sincerely love that ol cokepipe. Very much direct thread. Tested some different ones, yes, there are advantages, but IM(amateur)O negligible, at least for me, range and occasional competion.
I like the YHM sRx system you mentioned a little while back. It's a great Hub system close to direct thread. Lets me mix my YHM and DD Sound Guard Cans and works much better than the YHM Phantom system I used to use.
At the moment, my DDC enticer Ti L and Ti S are running DT mounts, but they are dedicated to two rifles. Eventually i am going to send my old GA m4sd2 to Ecco machine up have it converted to hub mounts, and run the plan b mounts from readen. If I could go it over again I would have held off from buying the m4sd2 and Recce 7, do more research, and got something with hub threads instead. Thankfully Ecco machine is around.
DT all the way, unless its huxwrx flow. 3-4.5oz less on the end of the gun makes a big difference to me, also shorter you can get a 13.7 as short overall as a 12.5 with a QD attached depending on suppressor and QD I think a lot of people overlook OAL.
I love watching hop make videos of things that ill never buy because im too cheap and am in denial over handing my information over to a 3 letter agency that already has it.
Oh well, time to slap another com block 4 piece brake on an AR. Poor man's signature reduction.
I would like to make a counter point that direct thread muzzle brakes pinned in place are the superior option for signature reduction. Your target can’t locate you if they’re blinded and deafened.

I'll probably get a direct thread .556 instead of a QD for my next can. I have a DT 22 can and a QD 762 can right now, but the suppressor wait times make a DT can so much more worth it.
I find myself not using my suppressor anymore 😂 i shoot high volume and dont care for the added weight. Maybe if i had a shorter and more lightweight one i would use it more. After melting a suppressor cover, i fell out of love with using it

I love my Gemtech Patrolman, completely agree with direct thread. I have a QD YHM from 2009 its a boat anchor
Surefires are not the quietest suppressors but they do have a good return to zero. You can also toggle back and forth between the Mini and full size Surefires with minimal shift.
My first can was a Gemtech Trek II. Not because Hop had one but because it was the cheapest can in the store and I predominately shot 5.56 at the time. I distinctly recall being very happy with how it sounded on my 11.5 with an Odin Works adjustable gas block. Noticeably quieter to the shooter than my buddies YHM Resonator K and they are similar in dimensions overall. That is a .30 cal can but…from that moment I actually was a big fan of direct thread. Our guns were very similarly configured but mine was quieter and less expensive. Since then I also grabbed a resonator K that moves between my 6 arc and 6 creed, and it’s nice…but my DeadAir Wolfman stays as a direct thread item on my GHM-9 because it is also noticeably quieter and lighter, even in K configuration, then it is with a KeyMo adapter.
6:00 that was gold
I'm on a 2 month wait right now. I hope mine clears real soon.
Yeah, the last can I bought before the wait times dropped was 14 months; the one I got this year was 6 days. Gotta love it! But now I have to figure out where to hide them from the wife.
Cleaning the barrel with a suppressor on is a task, I’d like to remove it to clean it and any threads stretch when torqued to constantly removing and installing on your barrel can lead to issues
Great video as always brother 🤘 and you got one of the coolest cats man always love seeing them at the end of the vids ✌️
First can I bought was a gemtech trek ii to p/w on an 11.5 Geissele barrel. Heard Geissele barrels are well gassed so I figured I’ll tune it with buffers and be done with it. If I want a can on a different rifle then I’ll just buy another can.
There are 3D printable suppressors that perform quite great, especially for the price (a few bucks for a thread adapter, some JB Weld, epoxy mixture and Scotchcast wrapping)... just make sure you pay your extortion I mean tax stamp. Failing to do so would be wrong and illegal. 😉
I just bought my quick detach. Can that fits over a two flash hiders. it’s not nearly as quiet as probably a direct attach can would be. But it does a great job hiding the flash.
Video's from the man.. right as i need them!🫡
I decided to purchase 4 suppressors in one shot (pun intended) and it was a mere 10 day's before the rapid approvals became a thing. I had to wait forever.. Laaaame as hell. On a positive note, im not so old i had to walk uphill in the snow both ways to and from school. So there's that. Thanx Hop.✊️
I would love a suppressor, just can’t afford one. I really want one for my 308 bolt gun, just can’t seem to find the extra money to make it happen. Wish list product!
Sure, keymo is heavier and adds length. But when I use multiple host with the same can it always goes back to my original POI at 400 yards. Whats more inportant is the poi shift between each gun with or without can
I have a couple QD but all my hub mounts I run DT and leave them on the same rifle. I use a high dollar blue paste loctite that’s good to around 600 ish degrees and never had an issue.
I shoot unsuppressed sometimes due to length and weight so having a bare muzzle isn't the best experience. I like having a flash hider. Also when shooting long range with long strings of fire I find shooting unsuppressed is easier since I'm not looking through a shit ton of mirage from the heat coming off the suppressor
All of these videos just continue to prove to me that I'm too inept for a suppressor :pepedent:
Honestly, sometimes it's better that way. Some guns and calibers just aren't great host or all that quiet. If you picked one of those without research, you would have been let down and wasted a ton of money. I only did one to be .22 specific. Check out my short. It was worth $$325 in taxes and a can.
I got my silencer right as the wait times dropped, then silencer shop's software broke so I couldn't actually submit it, then my car broke so I couldn't get back to the FFL to try again. Man, I now get to feel the wait time pain for entirely different reasons.

Once huxwrx figures out how to make their cans direct thread, they will be unstoppable.
