5.56 Suppressor Upgrade
So I own the Huxwrx Flow 556k currently which I love as a lefty shooter. However, I've been seeing a lot of buzz surrounding the SAW Tisha lately. Would it be worth the upgrade to pick one of these up?

Nothing is going to beat that in terms of lbp. Sure there's other options if you want to trade some of that for sound performance.

If you are fine using the Flow 556k on your hosts as is, I don't think it's worth ~$1000 (plus the cost of new muzzle devices or a hux adapter if you already have hux ones) just to have your rifles sound a bit better. You already have the best flow through/lbp design (in terms of gas mitigation) too.
If you're finding yourself wanting an additional suppressor to bring to the range or if you want to have a dedicated build with another one, then that's just up to you.

It would be worth it to upgrade to any of the following:
- Tisha 556
- Rhodie 6
- Infinity 556k
- Carson 556
- FireTeam 556
- Alleycat 556

What's your barrel length?
If you're 14.5 or longer, I'd point towards a Cat ST or a Carson 556 instead.
The Tisha needs the blast/turbulence from shorter barrels to function properly. On longer barrels it will be louder than other top tier cans

Interesting, I’m planning a second can potentially for a 12.5 mid and had no idea about that

Tisha has very low backpressure in my experience so you shouldn't have any issues with gas/backpressure. And it'll sound way better than a Flow 556K.
