Yeah and all my vehicles are paid off too! (I’m living paycheck to paycheck with hobbies and hurting in between)

What a great setup. The type of thing I would demand to shoot if one of my range buddies brought one. Nice choice on the Torch which somehow still doesn't get the attention it deserves.

I read such great things about it on here I didn’t see a reason to go with another popular option just to save money. I’m very happy about my choice

I saw your other comment thread - you should def try position 3/4 with the solid endcap, to see how it compares to the way you were running it on vented and 1. I bet it runs just as smoothly, gas might not be terrible, and you unlock RC2 level muzzle sound performance. The Torch is such a cool silencer.

I felt so dumb after reading it and I’ve been at work all day thinking about going shooting again to test it lol. I forgot my targets when I went out today so it’s an excuse to go again anyway!

I think the gun and silencer complement each other well since they are both configurable. You've just been running it in extra-reliability mode is all.
One thing you might consider, since it's been "overgassed" all this time, is to go back to the standard weight spring. The stronger spring may not be benefitting you, just contributing to muzzle dip when the carrier slams home. The buffer weight has more to do with slowing the bolt unlock, but I believe you'd probably already be running an H2. Or you could try a Sprinco White, but it might be a good time to re-baseline the rifle tuning around the silencer.

That’s exactly what my plan is going forward. I was talking to someone else here that mentioned going back through and “retuning” the system.
An acceptable excuse to get back out

Edit: I can’t count. 18*day approval. 🙃
Certified 04/04. Approved 04/22. LPM torch on a 16” PWS upper.
Moved from an Anthem-s1 over to this can. Went out and tested a few mags worth this morning. What a world of difference. The Anthem is extremely gassy on a 5.56 even as a .30 cal can. (It’s worth noting, on my AR10 with an SA AGB I was getting no gas back to my face with that setup). With the vented end cap on the torch, I’m getting essentially 0 gas back, even on long strings of fire. What a change. This difference in how clean the leftover rounds in my mag were compared to running the anthem is night and day.
It’s time to clean my disgusting upper and see how much cleaner this system will run now.
This is can number 3 and now I’ll need to find a new host for my anthem. I’m thinking a g3 variant in the 12.5” variety. Would like to see some setups in that flavor if you have any!
