How often do you get to shoot that can Jerry?

Run it at Steve's during semi-annual range trips. Wet with a fresh wipe, it is good for 4 or 5 quiet shots. I have it on the night stand (dry) to kill flash if things go bump in the night. Steve has their Gen-2 (flat front end) and its' efficiency seems to be as good as, or slightly better. Price is very competitive with larger units. Only run it occasionally at the local range, work mostly on square box shooting there - eyes getting old
It is quite a bit shorter and lighter than the more efficient Ti-Rant.NRA Benefactor Member

What is this"wet" you all speak of? Is it only a pistol thing?

Wet, the Poseidon runs about the first 7 shots at the sound level of a dry TiRant, IMHO. After that, you hear it get progressively louder. I like mine for what I bought it for, a nightstand indoor defense pistol. Certainly not at the "impress your friends at the range" kind of can. I'm waiting to see how it runs 9mm subs on the Glock, when I get some time on the range. For the record, I've tried water, lithium grease, gun grease and wire pulling gel. Wire pulling gel works the best, both greases worked well, but very smokey.

Some suppressors are designed to be run "wet". That means there is a solid wipe (normally a urethane disk) placed in front of the internal baffles and held in place by the end cap. Then a small amount of some fluid (wire pulling gel recommended by most MFG's) is put in the back of the tube before installing on the firearm. Surprisingly, passing through the gel and the wipe does not appear to affect accuracy. The gel helps cool and slow the "fireball" hence aiding in suppressing the sound of the shot. As more shots are fired, the gel is burned off and the shots get slightly louder. Once the "wet" is gone, the suppressor is at its' least efficient level. There may be rifle suppressors designed to be run wet, but I am not aware of any.

A lot of rifle cans can have water (or some fluid) added into the tube and then run. I know SF specifically mentions it in their manuals and I believe the KAC NT4 has something about it (I don't own one to confirm). Obviously you don't fill the can up, it's just a little of the fluid poured in.

I believe some “military” spec’d Cans are able to run with some fluid in them based on operational requirements but I wouldn’t go squirting wire pulling gel in my centerfire rifle suppressors based on pressures etc

I'd be curious to learn the approved process for clearing a suppressor that's been submerged; whether there are any special dance steps that can assure you won't over pressurize the tube when firing. Is it still (was it ever) a thing to use condoms and RTV to limit water entry?
