Wasn't the for me, moa was fine but way too long and cumbersome, so im getting it re threaded at 18" to 14mm.
The local shop is thrashing the hardy but its good to know other options.
Many thanks

One of the fancy AR specific ones.

Against a mates DPT on his 16" and my Hardy with its 20" barrel.

The Hardy was not what I'd call hearing safe and the DPT dorked on it for a fraction of the cost.

A tech are superbly made and very nice.
ASE are mint also and would out do the aluminum ones for obvious reasons.

If you wanted the best for weight and noise reduction.

Hands down Oceania defense. 3d printed titanium suppressors. I had mates who had them on AR's and now a few who do a fair bit of Tops. They really rate the light weight and how effective they are. Plus they have a ratchet lock system which you will never bump. If I had the coin I'd grab one for all 3 rifles myself.

I would not touch anther Hardys again. As mentioned before DPT or Gunworks. I will be getting one to replace the Hardys I have as they wont fix it (even though I explained it was 2nd hand and I did not expect it to be done as a warranty job- ) I get soot on the outside of my barrel after every use even if only one shot is fired.... I understand sometimes things are not perfect- but it is how a person deals with defect and mistakes that is important to me and when I spoke to them he flat out told me that his suppressors wont do that....Well I can tell you its not the barrel doing it.....As a matter of fact, I had someone else wh is familiar with these things take a look at it and there is visible swarf in the join where the barrel sleeve threads into the muzzle fitting on the suppressor.....Probably a simple fix that has cost him a customer

When I replace it I will be getting a gunworks one - no question. If I was closer to DPT they would be in with a chance, but shipping hassles etc mean I go local for that now.

This happened to my son's brand new Hardy they did repair it as it is where the isolation tube is attached towards the front of the thread.
Well that's what they said.
