Kak Can Experience.........?

[Oldguy]

I've seen some of you guys write from time to time about your experience with KAK cans but can't find anything that speaks specifically to my situation. I'd appreciate it if you could give me your thoughts on it. I have a small range at my house, with a neighbor roughly 75 yards to the right. Do you think the side-ways noise reduction of a KAK can on an AR pistol would be of much consequence in reducing sound to the neighbor? I highly doubt I'm going to find anything objective as to decibel changes in direction so I'd appreciate your thoughts. A few 9mm or .45 pistol mags a week is generally all I shoot because I want to be and keep a good neighbor. An AR shorty is a whole nuther beast. I'm too aggravated at this point with hoop jumping to take it suppressed, but hopefully NC will change that soon? Thanks for any thoughts.

No, it reduces the DB to the shooter, I'm able to shoot moderate loads of 9mm without ears. the sound will splay out pretty quickly after that. especially 223, it wont make a difference

Negligible or no difference in my situation. Thank you guys, saved me some time and a few bucks.
