Muzzle · 14.5" AR-15 · 5.56 Lake City M193

I was happy to see the CTP5 being a strong performer on the +14.5" barrel lengths. So many suppressors are optimized on a 10.5" barrel but most gun owners have a rifle length barrel. The CTP5 provides good performance at 14.5" and class leading performance at 18".
