    Sorry to Hijack this thread.

    I've got a Howa mini 7.62x39 that I'm looking at getting suppressed.
    It's wearing a Weaver K4 4x38 at the moment.
    I have 3 DPT suppressors that all have excellent noise suppression, lightweight, and nimble handling. The only minor issue is the diameter is rather large at 43mm. When the scope is set to say 3x, the suppressor is visible through the scope. Totally functional but just a little imperfection.

    The Weaver K4 seems to have a very wide field of view, often comparable to my other variable power scopes at 3x. I'm worried it might face the same problem if I chucked a DPT on it.

    Does anyone know any brand of suppressors with smaller diameters?

    Thanks

    If there was a perfect barrel length for any calibre, then rifle manufacturers would agree. But they don't. Because there isn't.

    Gunworks does a longer and slightly narrower one. At 35mm diameter. I use one and have found it very good.
    Dead is better and Synthetic like this.
