Well i have commercial cans and did paper work on a trap . More so just to see how it would really work . for a bolt gun or even in my 223 AR they work very well and are 200 -300 total .
most commercial units are much more than that .
There is a company called rebel that have some low cost cans I have no direct hands on so cannot say if their 300 dollar unit is as good as a dead air or gemtech etc

Interesting... I do have commercial cans and the durability and functionality seem to be well thought out.

As you know there is not much in them so if the fit is right and the OD of the can is larger enough what more do you want . I get the fancy name brand but for 59 dollars a very good muzzle brake with adapter screw it on quick and the can works .
Some one did a DB test and it was so close hard to say that one was a real winner over the other . As well let say you have a large can for 30 cal Ok well shooting small cal though it it will be a reduction in efficiency .
But take the home made one and buy two sets of " dry storage cups and one extra end cap.
you can have 556 or 6.5 or 30 .
For a few dollars .

Unless I misunderstood him, personally, I’d rather spend that money on a bigger established company.

A guy in the following thread asked a similar question and I posted pictures of my form 1s internals. And posted links.

Sorry yes that is a high cost / As well many will use a wave washer to keep the baffles? dry storage cups tight.. This method is also used on commercial cans .
No sure where the 800 came in at was this a direct mount or a QD what size OD of the item ,

Honestly, it's kind of satisfying building your own, but I didn't save that much over just shopping commercial can deals. I wish I could trade all of my Form 1s for more Omega 9ks and Omega 762s.
If I do another Form 1, then it will be an integral one or OTB.
