After seeing it mentioned here a couple of times, it sure has my interest. I really like the size and flexibility of the design.
My only hands on experience with a Suppressor is with a buddies Liberty Freedom. It has proven very accurate out of a Bolt Action 308 and a Rock River 308. Very enjoyable to shoot!
Accuracy is important to me.
I plan on using it on a couple of AR style 308's, a couple of AR 15's & a 300Blk.
I am planning on ordering a Suppressor in the next couple of weeks.
I'm open to any hands on recommendations, reviews, links etc.
Thanks!

It works great, good can, good mounting system too.
It is quieter on a 556 than the 556 Saker as well.

I have no firsthand exeperience with one, but a friend of mine just ordered one based on recommendations he recieved from others that run one. As noted above, the mounting system is nice.
Might want to check out the Specwar as well: cheaper, within 3 oz.'s, has better sound reduction, and also a good mounting system. I'll be ordering one or the other this week.

I was about to order a Saker 7.62 for my .300 blackout x 2. One is an SBR. My class 3 FFL neighbor told me to hang tight as he was getting the Silencerco Omega in real soon. A demo that I could try 1st. Sweet. If you shop that model (brand new) it's nearly the same price point and you get much more. Like titanium, direct thread and QD mounts, and a removable muzzle break cap. Lighter and quieter!!! Love technology. IMHO look at the Omgea as a option.

More to add......The Omega has the same functionality as the Saker with regards to the end caps. You can use a 5.56 flat cap and get really good performance on the smaller caliber. I recommend you look at some youtube vids and read up on it just in case. Hate for you to miss out on the latest and greatest because you didn't know about it.
Good Luck

How does the Saker compare to the AAC 762 SDN?

AAC762 SDN is known to have 51T mount issues. YMMV
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

They are hit or miss!

How does the Saker compare to the AAC 762 SDN? Saker is newer. It has a better mount. Rated for higher calibers, sdn is only 308 and below. Silencerco is not owned by the freedom group. All around its better

The 51T ratchet system is wobbly. Had tons of accuracy issues with my 2 till I ordered some O rings and put them between suppressor and flash hider. O rings solve the issue but still very frustrating.

Like he said, You Mileage May Vary (YMMV). I've got three 51T mounts and my SDN6 mounts to all three solid without any wobble. Some people do have a little wobble between different mounts. It's kind of a crap shoot, but there are ways to correct it if you don't want to try a different 51T mount.
It is far more important to be able to hit the target than it is to haggle over who makes a weapon or who pulls a trigger.
