Episode 192- PTR VENT 3 MK18 Technical Discussion, the HK MK23, and Merry Christmas! (20-DEC-2023)

Today’s Topics:

  1. Sound Signature Review 6.135 – PTR VENT 3 on the 5.56 MK18. This is the technical discussion of this silencer and white paper, published 13-DEC-2023. Very interesting silencer – the Purposely Induced Porosity (PIP) technology apparently has some legs! (00:07:58)

  2. Merry Christmas from the PEW Science family to you and yours. The holiday is this coming Monday – hopefully you are able to spend it with your loved ones. Rejoice! Thank you all for making this a great year. How are you going to take advantage of the holidays? Should you get a MK23? (01:00:07)

Episode 191 - PTR VENT 3 on the MK18 and Surefire RC3 Flash Reduction Performance (13-DEC-2023)

Today’s Topics:

  1. Sound Signature Review 6.135 – PTR VENT 3 on the 5.56 MK18. This is the introductory discussion for this white paper, published concurrently with this episode! Low back pressure wars are heating up – this is a very interesting time in silencer history. Which technologies demonstrate the highest degree of efficacy? (00:08:33)

  2. The Surefire SOCOM556-RC3. PEW Science will be testing it, due to extremely popular demand from members and the public. The test specimen has been acquired. In the meantime, let’s talk about flash. This is topical due to a recent Surefire social media post highlighting the flash reduction phenomenology of the system (or lack thereof in certain configurations). (00:22:12)
