Daslinger Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 (edited) I have a AWC ULTRA 13 integrally suppressed 10/22. The gun is super accurate and super light weight. I was thinking of removing the baffle stack and just trying the gun for steel challenge. The “barrel” of the gun is 16” but the actual barrel is probably around 10”-12”. I wonder if the bullet exiting the barrel with basically an open end……would be loud enough to register on the timer ? Also I wonder if it would hurt the gun. I figure the bullet would leave the end of open barrel without a problem without hitting anything because it would just be empty barrel for say 6” until the bullet exited. it’s just that the gun even with the baffle stack installed is just so light and pointable/easy to shoot. And my volquartsen is a little heavy…….so maybe try using the integrally suppressed rifle with the one piece baffle stack and end cap removed. Is it a crazy idea.

GigG Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 I'd call AWC and ask them about damage. I don't think it will. I've RO's a lot of quite guns and it will just be a matter of the RO getting in the right place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeilAndrew Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 I shoot PCC suppressed with subsonic 9mm ammo frequently at my local steel matches. They've come to expect me and just dial up the sensitivity on the timer for me. It works pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornetx40 Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 Suppressed PCC's are specifically not allowed by rule. There isn't a no suppressor rule for RFRO or RFRI....at least that I was able to find. The only issue you would have shooting the barrel with the baffles removed would be filling the internal threads with lead spray. It can be difficult to clean it. You would be better off buying a ULW barrel from Wiland or a carbon wrapped barrel from Volquartsen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xpierrat Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 It should be load enough just like the other short barrel/tubbed examples wiland, taccom etc the leading of threads (as mentioned above ) should be a concern though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatland Shooter Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Have you spoke with the suppressor company yet? They may be able to supply a thread protector that can keep the threads clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
