Just bought a PTR91 from a buddy who works at the local gun shop. It's nicely upgraded with a Magpul PRS and a really nice muzzle brake but I would love to have a suppressor for it!
Ahh yes, the often overlooked #17 Locking Piece, 100% esential in this application. I've found that without the suppressor the rifle still functions pretty reliably using the #17 Locking Piece, has that been your experience? Nice setup, thank you for sharing.
Every clown on the HK uber orthrodox we are better than you cult fan club forums have stated the number 17 will not work without a suppressor. I have an FMP G-3 pre ban and it functions perfectly fine with and without the suppressor with all sorts of ammo with the RCM 17 LP.. Albeit, the ammo without the can isn't sent to the far side of the moon but a nice puddle 45 degrees from me at about 4 feet. That's fine.
I only test fired 10 rounds without the suppressor using the #17 locking piece. Definitely more enjoyable to shoot but I haven't shot the rifle since I posted the video. I'd say it would be reliable. Ejection was still strong even with the more delayed timing of the #17 LP.
I have the #17 locking piece and have never had any problems firing unsuppressed. I did it just to soften the recoil. I also added the Springfield buffer, rubber recoil pad and a Strike J-Comp V2.
@@ihcterra4625 IHC Terra, yes, a great working combination of parts you're using. The HK rifles take a little time and research when upgrading. I believe I'm using the HK51 heavy buffer in a MSG-90 stock. And yes, the #17 locking piece makes for a real easy shooter. Just remember, if you are expecting long shooting sessions or dirty environments the #17 locking piece w/o suppressor attached may result in a short-stroke or FTF. (just not enough energy to overcome dirt and carbon buildup)
@@zacharybrown5325 I was able to attach this wooden stock/furniture on my PTR91 that was described as CETME wood. Took some filing on the hand guard to make the carry handle clear but otherwise fit right up. I have a video of me shooting it on my channel
@@74nova36 These days that's a STEAL. I just sold a set of that for $77 on Gunbroker, but it was a pretty chewed-up set that needed TLC. A good-quality set of wood is ~$300+.
What type of Suppressor is it? Brugger and Thomet adviced that #17 locking piece is not required for their Rotex suppressor. Test without it showed pretty much identical ejection patters and bolt speed.
Suppressor is a Surefire RC2 7.62. I should get some bolt speed footage and compare between locking pieces. It definitely felt more delayed with the #17 locking piece.

That brass flying into low orbit lol. Really good looking rifle.
Man that was incredibly quiet! 👍🏻

@@ihcterra4625 Just how much did the locking piece change the recoil on its own? Scale of 1 to 10, I guess. Not sure how to measure "felt recoil".
I’m glad you’ve got a CETME stock on yours as well. Looks good and sounds great!
Thanks! The wood furniture is original HK surplus. The CETME stocks are different.
@@GCMKC really! That’s a trip I bought mine described as CETME furniture, what’re the main differences? Always nice to be shown something new

@@zacharybrown5325 sheesh that never happens. I think I paid about $70 for the pistol grip, stock and hand guard. Thanks!

Thanks. I got lucky because the rifle came with wood furniture. All the surplus wood stock sets have dried and pull a premium now.

Just need another warcomp, same suppressor. Same locking piece on my parts kit built FMP G3. I'm anxious to try it out.
Rumor has it that brass has been bouncing off of the iss
Favorite gun to find in fallout.
My dream gun
No. 17 locking piece I guess?
Yes. RCM #17 / 36 degree locking piece
I've got a specwar 762 suppressor and a PTR short barrel rifle 308 mine does not sound that quiet what can are you using. Loved the video though!
Yup switching to wood now.
Lol...
More hearing safe too...
What is the difference between the PTR and the H&K other than the price...
Awesome
So Bad Ass..👍👍
I love that the brass is on screen for all of 1-3 frames after each shot. How much further does the brass go with the suppressor?
i dont think the supressor adds that much range to the brass, its not a gas operated gun. besides, the g3 already launches the brass very far
It launches brass into orbit. No difference with a suppressor.
Looks like H&K G3 😮
It's a semi-automatic version of the HK G3.
0:10 is that selector in the fun mode, but then switched to semi?

what can are you using?
Did you also have to switch to -2 rollers, or are you using the factory ones? I’ve seen conflicting reports.
Currently using factory PTR rollers. I put on the Surefire, swapped the locking piece, and went full send.
I thought roller delayed and direct impingement guns weren’t friendly for suppressor use.
Look's Like G3
ss1 pindad..
18 or 16 inch barrel??? If it’s not obvious yes they will sound/ meter differently in 308
That's an 18" barrel. PTR-91 GI, from the looks of it.
18" HK profile.
Love my PTR! Damn that is quiet! What can did you put on it?
Surefire SOCOM RC2 7.62

The wood furniture really pops and gives it that classic look with the grey parkerizing!
