RATCHET MOUNT (51T)<br />
The revolutionary Ratchet Mount system is the most <strong>in</strong>tuitive silencer<br />
mount<strong>in</strong>g system available. Users are able to securely <strong>in</strong>stall the silencer on<br />
the weapon <strong>in</strong> under three seconds without the use of tools and with no mov<strong>in</strong>g<br />
parts. The ratchet latch prevents the silencer from loosen<strong>in</strong>g dur<strong>in</strong>g use. To<br />
combat foul<strong>in</strong>g, the very action of dismount<strong>in</strong>g a Ratchet Mount silencer<br />
breaks the bonds of copper and carbon that can solder less <strong>in</strong>spired silencer<br />
designs to their flash hiders. Installation is as simple as thread<strong>in</strong>g the silencer<br />
onto the mount’s ACME threads until tight. Removal requires a squeeze of the<br />
ratchet latch lever while unscrew<strong>in</strong>g the silencer.<br />
RATCHET TAPER MOUNT (90T)<br />
If the 51 tooth Ratchet Mount system <strong>was</strong> revolutionary, the new 90 tooth<br />
Ratchet Taper Mount is clearly evolutionary. Based on feedback from<br />
customers, AAC designers configured a BLACKOUT® flash hider with a 90<br />
tooth gear and a silencer bear<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>terface with a low angle taper. A f<strong>in</strong>er pitch<br />
ACME thread draws the taper on the flash hider aga<strong>in</strong>st a mat<strong>in</strong>g taper <strong>in</strong> the<br />
suppressor mount, result<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> a rock solid flash hider-to-silencer <strong>in</strong>terface.<br />
As with the 51 tooth Ratchet Mount, the 90 tooth Ratchet Taper Mount<br />
<strong>in</strong>corporates a spr<strong>in</strong>g biased ratchet lever that acts as a failsafe to prevent the<br />
suppressor from <strong>in</strong>advertently unthread<strong>in</strong>g from the flash hider.
