This has been a long time coming.
Having owned, sold and used Bowers products for the last decade I felt compelled to write this.
First off, Bowers products are top shelf! No corners are cut or detail left unattended. You will be very hard pressed to find similar products that are as nice as Tom's for any price. My first can (like most people) was a Bowers CAC9. After barely a couple of months I started to get baffle strikes (i let the can unscrew while shooting it). This let me experience Tom's business model and customer service first hand. Tom's reply was "send it in and we will fix and get it back to you, no charge" Really? Who the hell does that?
This prompted me to purchase several more suppressors from Bowers, all of which preformed beyond expectations. After that it goes quiet(ha!) for several years, well I mess stuff up and Tom tells me to send it back so he can fix it.
Not to long ago Bowers began to offer the upgrade to the Versadapt (?) mount upgrade for his suppressors. i sent in one of our older CAC9 cans and had Tom work his magic. First off, the adapters are just beautiful! Well thought out and machined. Next he completely rebuilt the can with his latest baffle stack and endcaps making a noticeable improvment in performance. All for a nominal fee and 1 week turnaround. Can't beat that with a stick! With the interchangeable adapters this makes the CAC series of suppressors some of the most versatile on the market. A true bargain when you factor in everything you can use it on. I currently use the UZI, .5x28 and m11/9 thread mounts.
Today in speaking with Tom about upgrading my CAC22 into a user serviceable can he said to send it in and he would go over it for me and replace both endcaps with an upgraded version and replace any worn parts. This is a fricken 10 year old can that I have beat the snot out of! This just follows Tom's business model, if he made it he will service it for life all for the cost of shipping. Factor in the cost of his products and this is just a smokin deal.
I also ordered a 5/8x24 adapter to use the cac9 on a 300 blackout rifle I just built because I think .30cal cans are just to fricken heavy.
I know this comes as no surprise to people that have been in the game awhile, but I figured I would share this with those who have not experienced Bowers products or service. Tom and Dorthy truly treat everyone as if they were family. If you have not yet, you owe it to yourself to check out their product line and forums:https://www.subguns.com/
