baldie Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 You guys may remember Colin asking for field testers for his mods a while back. Colin called in for a natter and a cuppa one day whilst on his travels, and we specced a mod for my AR. Its a stainless steel model, i think it has 8 baffles, and a front blast baflle, all made from stainless, and beautifully machined, and welded.....absolute top drawer worksmanship. Its about the same weight and size as a Jet-Z, and is muzzle mounted [in this instance ]with a 5/8" x 18 UNF thread for my rifle. Took it to the range and fired a few rounds with the mod off, then we put it on. To say i was astounded would be an understatement. This is probarbly the quietest mod i,ve ever heard.Its at quiet as a Jet-z to my ears, but even duller. I already have an order for you Colin, from a chap with an AUG. It also made my AR more accurate. This gun will normally hold 1/2" every time, with some better, as is normal. It was consistently returning .2 groups, and thats 5 shot groups, not 3, with the mod on. The gun obviously likes it on too ! Its gonna get blacked, then become a permanent fixture. What a piece of kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch_egg Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I am liking the look of this mod. Any pricing yet and will a .20 cal specific one be available? How does it compare the MAE mods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakotrg Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Looks to be a fully sealed system? Can't quite see on your photo if there is a bushing at the rear end or is the end machined to suit the customers requirement? Looks really good though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does it compare the MAE mods? Hi These mods are aimed (forgive the pun) to compete with anything on the market for performance however should out spec them in both build materials and the ability to be customised. As such a top spec unit will be approx £320 and a level entry unit approx £200 but it really depends on what the individual wants. As for a specific .20 cal model.....no problem. atb Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a piece of kit. I run a couple of Mods from Colin ( onelesscharlie ) on my .243 .223 .17HMR, as he is a personal friend he has asked me to test these and others from time to time. I can say that they perform brilliantly and the quality is top draw. Mike Powell from Sporting Rifle tested one in last years mag and also gave it good reviews. I have eneded up getting rid of my Wildcat mods and buying them from colin for my range of rifles. I am happy with them and they have had some serious use, only gripe is he didnt give me mates rates when bought them !!! no complaining realy ! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !

Jagged 77 Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Colin showed me these mods last Saturday whilst at Senny, unfortunately I didn't get a chance to shoot with one on but they look a really solid and well engineered piece of kit.

Jinks Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 I gave Colin a call yesterday about these moderators, and as I was working in his area, he kindly invited me over to the machine shop to see the mods in various stages of manufacture. All I can say is that I am very impressed with the build quality of them and the attention to detail that goes in to the manufacture. Each one is hand made and custom made to customers requirements. I will definitely be ordering one soon to mount on my 6mmBR. Thanks again Colin Cheers, Jinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onelesscharlie Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Sounds promising. What are the dimensions and weight? Will they work with a .300 win Mag? Regards, Christian Hi Christian Muzzle mounting all stainless can for a .300 win mag would be approx 560g, 45mm dia and 146mm long, however depends if you want to bias toward light or quiet. Either way if you want further details just get in touch, there should be an advert on here early next week with a link direct to my site. best regards Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest richness Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Colin, can you give me a buzz sometime next week, i want to go ahead with a giant mod for the 338. I was thinking that if i got a 338 i'd want a monster mod on it; i saw a video of a chap with one and the recoil was no problem at all. For me, it'll just make it easier to shoot while running Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmer7 Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Hello I'm looking for a mod for a Rem LTR .223, was going to buy a ASE CQBS then stumbled on this page. Are your mods a similar size? How quickly could I get one? And also how much? Warranty? Look forward to hearing from you. Thank you. P.S. What would the size and weight be?

baldie Posted June 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 Recieved a very large package from Colin T'other day..... Between us we had come up with a design for my 338. I suspect Colin thought i was mad, its such a big one...fnaar fnaar.... However having had said beastie out on test today, he will see i was was right... This is a MUZZLE mounted silencer, on my .338. I love that anticipation of the first round down a new untested mod, you just dont know what to expect. There was quite a crowd watching too at Mattersey, and to a man, they were astounded. This baby sounds like a silenced 243...i kid you not. It also now recoils like a .308.....without the stab. I,ve never witnessed such a HUGE reduction in muzzle blast, or recoil from a moderator....from any manufacturer. Colin, you need to be contacting the people we spoke of the other day.....urgently. I also have video of the shots on my phone, next time you are in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
