    As title says:
    Has anyone used one?
    Seen one being used?

    Keen to hear your thoughts and opinions all, thanks in advance!

    Got one, used one, heard one.

    I like them...sound is different in every circumstance depending on what you are surrounded by. First time i used it sounded like i had either shot a downloaded round or 223, other times its loader than suppressed but not as load as unsuppressed. This depends on if you in open or next to a hill etc

    that sums up my experience with them too, definitely effective especially on the heavier recoiling calibres

    Yes I have one and like it. Tamed down the front end a bit and easier to stay on target after shot. Havnt really noticed any change in noise but mates say it's a bit louder.

    I dont have a DPT, Im using a Gunwarrior, I brought along from africa.

    Its an awesome piece of equipment, best of both worlds.

    If I buy a DPT it will be with the MB attachment.

    Have 2 of them, work very well reducing muzzle jump & recoil. Especially with light rifle & grunty caliber. In the field I can’t tell any difference in noise levels vs standard end cap.
