I was told when I spoke with one of the guys a while back, they're muzzle forward because their testing showed no real benefits to an over barrel design. Had a lot more to do with baffle and internal design. I guess the flow of gasses. I don't know anything about this field so you can take this with a grain of salt. Awesome suppressors, I have 3.

Yeah the benefit is that it's shorter, probably slightly louder but as long as it gets the SPL below the hearing safe threshold I don't care if it's as quiet as it absolutely can be - rather have 2 inches less length

The guys atQ basically outlined that 1” forward is the equivalent suppression of 4” over barrel behind the muzzle so from a weight point of view it makes sense to go muzzle forward
