Why you absolutely need to clean your suppressor

By Waheed UK

We all know at least one gun owner who’s a little too lazy when it comes to routine maintenance, but this is ridiculous.

TPM Outfitters recently received a few HK MP5SD’s for repair. The owner complained that the suppressors weren’t working anymore and couldn’t be removed from the weapons.

They wrote about the problem on their Facebook page,

We have some demo Factory HK MP5SD’s that were sent to us for repair that had the suppressor’s stuck on to the gun and they started to get very loud, we had to cut the cages off and the suppressors as well. This is all factory HK including the suppressors. They did not try to take off the suppressors and were seized to the barrels after it was too late, this is why it is so critical that the suppressors come off every 250-500 rounds to clean the barrel and ports of built up carbon. The suppressors were solid carbon all the way to the end cap inside. Thanks for looking and don’t let this happen to you.

Take a look at what they found inside…
