| I can't give you first-hand experience, since I've only tried the T8-model, but both have been tested for years in Finnish gun magazines, and the Ase-Utra is unanimously regarded as the superior of those two. They are somewhat smaller, stronger and suppress noise better than the BR-tuote Reflex T-models. I'm not sure how it actually goes, but I've understood that the BR-tuote and Ase Utra suppressors are made by more or less same professionals and with same machinery in Joensuu, Finland. The idea for the Ase-Utra-suppressors was to create a suppressor that could handle even the hottest loads on regular basis, which at least the earlier BR-tuote Reflex suppressors couldn't always do. Finally they became also smaller and their design is somewhat different from the BR-tuote suppressors. Here is their homepage: http://aseutra.fi/ where you can find more info and also their distributors abroad. In this page you can see the picture of a Ase-Utra suppressor cut in half, which will give you the idea of their Z-shaped chambers: http://www.guns.connect.fi/gow/ruutiset13.html |

| Dear Mr Moderator Designer - please design a moderator that's 32mm OD, ASE baffles up front, PES custom chamber to the rear (no central tube) in stainless.
So irritating when you see excellent designs with details missing. |

| You might want to check from the company: contact@aseutra.fi
I think they have done some research on the subject. My own guess would be that the noise reduction will suffer a bit, but it will still work OK as a suppressed rifle. |

| How do mate.
The 2" spigot... The S5 is a "barrel can" Mod' not a reflex type, so the spigot is used to align the unit to the barrel. So that just in case it comes loose at any time it will still remain "true" l was advised to fit this type of unit due to the work l wanted to use it for ie; stalking and weight constraints, and also that it is said that they do not heat the barrel up as rapidly as the Reflex type Mods'
Regards.
