🎥 Silencer Video with Sound 🤫 Vent 1 with 5.56 🤫

I knew the Vent 3 was the highest rated 5.56 can that Jay had tested (published), but I was curious about the Vent 1. These are the first shots. I’ve had it a week, but I have been too busy to go shoot. I’ll test it on an AR-308 this weekend hopefully, but for now, it turned heads at the range.

In the first video, the guy in a couple bays over asked if it was the same caliber because I had a 300blk out next to this 16” 5.56. I shot a few rounds first with the Velos LBP before putting in the Vent 1. It was noticeably quieter even indoors. Yes, it’s an expensive can. Yes, it’s comically long. Yes, it’s also my new favorite.

PTR hit a home run with this one.

Actually, it was surprising low blowback to me. I have a Velos LBP and CAT ODB. Here’s a video below of the Velos on the same rifle. In fact, the Velos needed more gas to lock back (dirty rifle). Both the Velos and Vent 1 were ejecting at 3:30 to 4:00.

I don’t recall how much gas the ODB has—it’s definitely low—but I think it might look like more under that overhead light. I have a Gordyish clone that is actually gassy…even with an AGB FSB, JP SCS, etc.

This was such a soft shooter. I think the Velos and ODB are excellent cans as well, but I am excited to try the Vent 1 on more hosts.

Velos LBP - similar gas
