It covers all pistol calibers up to 45 caliber and rifle calibers up to 45-70 to include 338 LM. It is a little pricey but with the possibility of running a single can on multiple hosts, nothing beats it. Only drawback is that it is not user serviceable. But then again shooting a few 338 LM through it will probably break up the debris inside. Recommendation - spend the money and don't look back. Not sure where you read that but - the Hybrid is user serviceable - it comes with a wrench (same one as the Omega) and you can pull the baffles out. With that logic the Omega is user serviceable? Not. Just because it has a wrench doesn't mean the baffle stack comes out. Checkout the owner's manual.

Neither the Omega nor the Hybrid are take apart cans.
I have confirmation of that from Quinton Mount @ SilencerCo.

Well, I'll be damned - it's not user serviceable. Oh well...I don't really care. One less thing to worry about.
Suppressors are quieter when dirty.

Suppressors are quieter when dirty. +1 Cleaning silencers can be a pain in the ass, and if you're not careful you can accidentally do more harm than good. My lazy half considers the inability to completely disassemble them a blessing, not a hindrance. It drives my OCD half crazy, though. First world problems...

The only suppressor you really need to be able to clean is a rimfire suppressor. Centerfire is clean enough as it is and you're only doing yourself a disservice by cleaning them (less suppression). With that said, my OCD is still tweaking out.

Anyone have a long term review on the hybrid? Does ultrasonic cleaning work on welded suppressors well? Or at all?

Complete noob here waiting on our friends in .Gov to approve paperwork... And I have a question.
Are there ways to clean a suppressor that can't be taken apart?
I'm picturing a soak in a powder solvent, then shaking it out, then firing off a few rounds. How many rounds on average does a sealed compressor last before it is worn out?
I have never considered something to have an advantage when it is less user-serviceable. Until reading this thread I mean.
