[QUOTE="rifleman 1981, post: 1629195, member: 12746"] I know for a fact that there have been several homemade cans that are every bit as quiet as some of the big boys cans ( swr aac thunderbeast etc...... ). as far as the cost of cnc machining being more expensive it is to an extent but it also takes less man hours and is more precise than someone doing everything by hand on a manual lathe or mill. A good machinist with a little knowledge and a little time can definitely make his own can cheaper if he doesn't count his time as being worth much, and can incorporate some pretty cool features in the process such as being able to take his can apart for cleaning, interchangeable baffles and different caliber baffles and have some self satisfaction and pride in his work and design.
