Great simple taper mount can
I was able to pick up my Explorr recently, and love it. This is my 2nd Griffin can after an Optimus 9. I love the Optimus for it's ability to suppress just about anything, but it is indeed a jack of all trades, master of none. The Explorr is awesome for it's simplicity, it is a 1 peice, tubeless, welded tapermount can. nothing to come apart, no adapters, just the most interior volume possible for what is a size somewhere between a standard and "K" can. It's probably as short and light as possible while suppressing ARs into hearing safe territory. It sounds really good, so far I've tried it on 10.5 and 16" 5.56 ARs, 9" 300BO, 18" AR10 and 20" bolt in 308, and all sound at least as good as my gen1 Optimus with mid-size config, and similar to a friends DA Nomad, but at a standard 1.5" OD, so it fits under handguards where the nomad might hit. My 9" 300BO has a long 9" Aero gen 2 guard, about an inch of this can nestles right inside, and it sounds great with subs. The way griffin does their excellent taper mount muzzle devices, the rear edge of the can is about flush with the barrel's shoulder where a little less than 6" of can protrudes ahead of the muzzle(and 5" or less ahead of most of their muzzle devices), keeping it compact, but also allowing for almost all of Griffin's mounts. The styling is clean and simple, at home on pretty much everything. Backpressure is decent, it's not a really "gassy" can, adjustment/ejection and gas from the receiver was about the same as the Nomad and Optimus. The finish and welding are superb, the taper mount interface locks on securely, and can come off easily after cooling. It is probably the best single purpose 30cal can Griffin has out now.
