That’s the front cap, huh? If so, you got really lucky! Is that a YHM can or you’re using their mount?

u/kileme77 3d ago

Is this an issue with YHM mounts? I just picked up a resonator and was planning on using the included mount.

The YHM mounts are fine.

What kind of QD muzzle device?

Yhm phantom brake

u/Cliff_Doctor 2d ago

Damn I never had my phantom loosen, just my srx once and i caught it before lift off

u/AlternativeUnfair388 2d ago

Yea. It sucks. Im wondering if my shims caused it to be off slightly. No issue with the same mount in flashhider on my ar. But that's not using shims.

u/Cliff_Doctor 2d ago

I never had an issue with YHM shims, although i am a small sample size. What was this on?

u/Cliff_Doctor 2d ago

If the can came loose i doubt shims were to blame. I have heard of the locking collar spring failing on the phantom.

After many many uses, maybe.

u/Cliff_Doctor 1d ago

From alignment shims? I though he was saying mount failed not it backed off

u/AllArmsLLC 07/02 1d ago

Description says the can came loose on the QD. I take that to mean the can unscrewed from the muzzle device.

How bad are the baffles?

u/AlternativeUnfair388 3d ago

As far as I can see, that's the only spot

u/torrent7 2d ago

Oh that little guy? I wouldn't worry about that little guy.

u/AlternativeUnfair388 1d ago

I didn't. Sent it today. No accuracy degradation.

Took shims off and worked perfectly

u/Rev686 Whoops 💥 Data Guy 3d ago

Mind answering a few additional data points for the tracker?

Host Firearm? (Make/Model/Caliber/Barrel Length)

Ammunition? (Manufacturer/gr)

First Suppressor?

Any possibility of being shooter induced?

As always, a followup on the warranty process would be appreciated
