    without the suppressor none of the subsonics cycled the rifle. They would extract, eject (sometimes stovepipe on lower powder charges of H110).
    It needs the supressor to have the backpressure to cycle. Also, barrel and gas system are a 16"bbl and carbine gas system. Carbine buffer/spring.
    Hope this info is helpful. If I could post pictures I would post targets too.
    Also, the rifle has a 16" carbine barrel and gas system and carbine buffer/spring. Hopefully I'll be testing the subsonics through the can next week if I can convince my dealer to bring it out..........
    incoming rounds have the right of way.
Working...
