    I think dpt just looked at my first pic of the dirty suppressor exterior (just a residue from in the bike inner tube and cleaned off easily once I was home ) and said it must be corrosion. Corrosion is just their easy out option.
    I think the baffle failed prematurely due to fatigue.
    Either way I'll keep shooting it as it is now. Maybe I'll buy another one later, probably I'll change brand. They couldn't even offer a small discount for a replacement part after that bad experience. Definitely not the customer service i was hoping for.
    looking at the picture its not just the outside that is dirty mate.

    Corrosion and fatigue go hand in hand with aluminium alloys.
