As a left handed shooter actively looking for a better rifle silencer, and speaking of superior engineering; At Cornell university, they have an incredible piece of scientific equipment known as the tunneling electron microscope. This microscope is so powerful that by firing electrons you can actually see images of the atom. The infinitesimal minute building blocks of our universe. If I was using that microscope right now, I still wouldn’t be able to locate my interest in this silencer.
@@armorers_wrench otter creek was so on point demo’ing their new flow through can on a 10.3 mk18 mod 0. 😂 shit is gonna be gassy af on any can that doesn’t do one hell of a job dissipating gases and reducing back pressure
Bringing all of us left-handed folks up in here under false pretense, making us think you thinking about us and bringing out something for the left-handed crew is a crime, lol
@@Whojz that’s cute. Buy one and the can and come back to us with data.. Just so people can complain that it’s loud and sounds different than the video. Do you know what a 130db sounds like on a 11.5 Mcx vs a 10.3 mk18?
@@fortknoxpodcast I do plan on getting one for my 13” sugar weasel. Just would’ve been nice if they showed some firing on the weapons they have in 556 that simple.
Never understood the whole low back pressure and flow thru pandering. It's next to impossible to completely eliminate 100% of the gas. Plus, there's a reason most still refer to cans, as "silencers". It was originally meant to silence or suppress the sound.
@@hikeskool I don't care much for the whole flow thru or low back pressure technology that all the young folks are so into these days. I'm just looking to get the most "sound suppression" out of all my cans, but that's just me.
@@peacesmakers I get both sides of that. Flow-through is great if you want something that will “suppress” in any condition with added benefit of less gas in your face. Don’t need to mess with anything (“tune”) it will just work. Traditional style will usually net the best actual db reductions but may be a hassle to get to work for various applications. With almost all semiauto 5.56 applications, both styles are nowhere near “hearing safe” so to me, a filthy casual, I’ll always wear ear protection anyway so it’s not a huge difference 👌
@@hikeskool Thank you for keeping it professional and having some common sense, instead of trying to argue about it with myself or others on here. Have a great rest of your day!
The silencer shop promo video showed guys firing without (apparent) hearing protection - is this to imply this can is “hearing safe” on semi-auto applications?
LOL. Dude, stop trying to corner people in the comments of all the videos. You can look at the decibel levels on any silencer and then compare to what is generally considered hearing safe by the medical/safety community. No one is (or should) tell you that something is hearing safe if it's anywhere near possibly not. Spoiler alert, almost no supersonic ammo is going to be hearing safe with any type of muzzle device.
Is the first baffle far back enough to run a longer flash hider needed for a 14.5 pin and weld such as the rearden r2 or the forward control designs 3p15 singe I don’t beleive you guys make a flash hider for a pin and weld?
It can, it’s over-bored to accommodate more gas to flow outwards toward the muzzle. Source - I work at an FFL/SOT, we sell tons of Q and other suppressors.
@@chasejohnson1122interesting. Idk how it wouldn’t work… @kevinbrittingham6774 why doesn’t flow through work? Isn’t it just a trade in function between sound and back pressure? I understand there’s no free lunch in engineering
@@kevinbrittingham6774Put it on a BCM or some other milspec AR-15 and show us. Come on, do it for the homies. Seriously please. Just a basic AR-15 with a phosphate bcg and a normal non adjustable gas block.
Was hoping for the Lefty that I saw in person at an event in Ft Worth a few years back. Back then the whole point was to have a left handed shooter friendly(less back pressure) durable 5.56 can for the SF community because they have a higher percentage of “Lefty” shooters hence the name. Now with the name South Paw you think left handed but this can is totally different from the Lefty and just seems like a more durable Jumbo Shrimp. For what they are charging for it & 1 stamp I can get Polonium & Polonium K with both stamps. Or you can buy a CAT WB that weights the same but is all Inconel and less back pressure. As someone that owns Q products I’m having a very hard time with the value proposition here.
@@hikeskool The market has moved on especially for that kind of money. Like I said you can buy 2 Polo’s for that or a proven more advanced lower back pressure can like the White Bread for the same price. The approach that Q seems to take is more like buy it because we are Q. Not sure how this can’s performance is going to be any better than a Polo. I fell for the marketing hype and drank the koolaid with the Trash Panda before. Hey if you like the koolaid by all means buy it but not me.
@ I wasn’t talking about a host weapon. Let’s see the Pew Science numbers prove me wrong when it comes to the performance of this can. If I’m wrong then I will happily admit it. If it ranks as high as a Polo or the M4-2K bit cost way more then what’s the point? Is it lighter than a Polo? No it’s not. Flash, does it out perform a Polo on flash reduction? Tell me what makes this can a “Ferrari” or premium silencer other than price? Once again for the same premium price you can get a can that is all inconel, meters great at the muzzle and ear and does well on flash while being about the same weight with way less gas to the face. The South Paw seems like paying for a Ferrari and then finding out it’s really a Maserati Ghibli.
@@hikeskool NOPE. We have our own station for Eforms, getting tons of 72 hour or less approvals, but never did the Silencer Shop route. I am hoping it's a limited time exclusive.
Awesome. Looks like an amazing can with tons of features and a lot of cool innovation…for 2014.

Why would you not let off some shots to show off the suppressors ability?
You can’t gauge how quite a can is on RUclips.

Supposedly to avoid having to "tune" the host (buffer weights, piston settings, etc.). Results are mixed on that front but I get the logic 👌

It has tri-cubic volumetrical flow advantage, which means all the *dBs* were taken out during fabrication.

Can you guys stock new items like the KNOB GOBLIN so they stay in stock for more than a day?

An inch longer than expected.
Why did stop including the cherry bomb mount?
its awful, don't get this can but rearden makes a better solution using the plan B layout
Can you confirm if this can shoot 6mm? SilencerShop is telling people it can. But 6mm isn't listed your site nor on the SilencerShop site

Gotta luv it 🎉

Curios about this myself!
They should, since they don't send suppressors with mounts anymore

Guys, why all the hate?
is this your first time on the internet?
J from Q is kind of funny. Funny-ha-ha funny. He should lose 10 lbs and go on tour.
When can i buy one

Wooooo
Got my name on one 😎

Can ya maybe put a round through it? What is this a Jaguar commercial? Maybe when you make a .30 can, you'd actually show a DB rating or some PewPews.
