Flying Suppressor, Missed Coyote - Double Naught Spy - 01-29-2018
Went hunting and missed a coyote because I had a minor baffle strike (several) as my suppressor launched from my rifle. Consulted Silencerco. They said I probably had the locking mechanism partially engaged when I put the can on the rifle and that kept it from seating properly and so the lock did not engage fully when I tightened it. The baffles are fine, but the mount will be replaced.

Awful early in the year to be using up your freebie.

Very glad things didn't go any worse than that for you DNS. At first glance, this would seem dangerous, But I wonder if it worked exactly as intended considering a possible false lockup?

Yeah, I had him, broadside, still, very reasonable distance, and I was not shaking too much. That would have been my first coyote for the year, but nooooooooo!

Ouch. Sorry about that man. Been seeing a lot of this lately.
Gotta add it to the rifle set-up checklist before shooting.
LaRue said he made the SUURG the way he did for that reason, because SOCOM is tired of seeing baffle strikes.
It has a muzzle brake core that the can sleeves over, so no baffles ever get hit. The lock-up on it is nice too-handled it at SHOT.

That coyote needs to go play the lottery.
