AAC TiRant .45

[samson7x]

Anyone have any experience with this can? Pros? Cons? I found one for $825 and am seriously thinking about making the purchase/filling my form 4 this weekend.

As a side note-Have any of you used a larger caliber can on a smaller caliber firearm? I intend to get the .45 can and use it on my 9mm as well.

Thanks in advance

I don't know about the tirant but most pistol caliber cans have interchangeable pistons for the different calibers. Find out if you can put a 9mm piston in the tirant45.

Are you buying from an individual in town or a shop or online or what? If you aren't buying from an individual in town or a shop, then you are a bit premature in filling out the form 4.

I will investigate the piston you speak of. I will be purchasing from a shop in central AR where I am from.

What is your permanent address? If you live in Cordova, you will have to have the can transferred (Form 3) to a dealer in TN and then a Form 4 transfer after that.

Here is a link where you can order pistons threaded for 9mm use.

My permanent address is AR...Im here for a semester finishing my doctorate. I was concerned about that as well and called the ATF to confirm that my paperwork would NOT get declined.

Thanks for the link.

Ok cool. just making sure. In that case, you should be fine. You will just need to order the correct piston for the hosts you are using.

Yes the tirant 45 can use smaller pistons. You have to call aac to get them though as they do not offer them online

[Capbyrd]

Its amazing you say that Il Douchebag, since I already posted the link above where he could order them...ONLINE! MWUHAHAHAHAHA

[Il Duce]

Bwahahaha. I just responded with what an AAC rep said on M4C

[Capbyrd]

Well, I'm clearly smarter than an AAC rep. And since they have had some recent layoffs, perhaps I should go run things over there.

[Il Duce]

Perhaps

[samson7x]

Another question, can you break it down for cleaning?

[Capbyrd]

They have made some that were user serviceable and some that weren't. Best thing to do is to call AAC and give them the serial number and ask.

Well I went for it and purchased the tirant last weekend. Now Im in the process of getting my paperwork lined out. I asked the guy if it was user serviceable and he said it was. He said it comes with a tool that fits in notches on the endcap which unscrews. Im pretty excited but now the wait begins.
