I’ve had the Flow 762 Ti for months now, even before it was released publicly. During this time, I put several hundred rounds through this suppressor with the most punishing platform that I have; an FN SCAR 15P chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO with a 7.5-inch barrel. The pressure and heat that the Flow 762 Ti sees on this platform are on the extreme end. Still, even with the suppressor glowing red-hot and the handguard too hot to touch, the flow 762 Ti never failed or caused any degradation in performance. To this day, there is still no visual wear that I can detect on the blast baffle or muzzle device.
About
The HuxWrx Flow 762 Ti is a 30-caliber suppressor on the cutting edge of technology. This space-age can is 3D printed using durable and light grade 5 titanium. This manufacturing process allows HuxWrx to make very complex pathways within the suppressor to guide the gas flow most efficiently for slowing and cooling the gasses while still venting forward. This venting action limits backpressure within the firearm’s gas system. Because these hot gasses are not retained within the suppressor, the Flow stays cooler than most systems during high-rate firing strings. In fact, this suppressor is full-auto-rated and has no caliber or barrel length restrictions. HuxWrx ran the flow through a SOCOM Reliability Stress Test where it passed with flying colors.

The Flow requires the use of one of three HuxWrx muzzle devices that utilize their Torque Lock System; the Flash Hider-QD, Flash Hider-QD AK, or Muzzle Brake-QD. These muzzle devices add around 3-3.7 ounces of weight to the muzzle and are made of Heat Treated 17-4 Stainless Steel. The Torque Lock System is toolless and ensures that the Flow is indexed identically when removed and reinstalled. The tapered surface on the QD muzzle devices blocks any potential carbon buildup from the threads, making the suppressor easy to remove and install time after time.

Final Thoughts
The Flow 762 Ti is a fantastic and versatile workhorse. There are only a small handful of suppressors on the market that can handle a 7.5″ 5.56×45 like the FN SCAR that I used in my testing. Now considering this suppressor has no barrel length restrictions, HuxWrx knows they have a nearly indestructible product and that is great peace of mind. Any comparably robust suppressor is close to twice the weight because they are typically made of much denser material to make up for inefficient baffle design. Also, because this suppressor is 30 caliber, it can be shot on many, many different platforms chambered in anything 30 caliber or smaller, which is the vast majority of popular rifle rounds.
On a different note, you may be wondering how this one-piece, 3D-printed suppressor can be repaired if you were to have a baffle strike or other type of failure. Well, HuxWrx can repair it by cutting the core out with high precision technique and welding in a new 3d-printed core. This repair yields a finished product that is just as effective and tough as the original.

Overall, I think the HuxWrx Flow 762 Ti is a great investment for the hard-use shooter, or for niche weapon systems like mine. I know it isn’t the cheapest, coming in at $1,684 MSRP, but I would never take the cheap route when it comes to safety devices. Especially with hearing protection devices because that is one thing where if you damage it, the effect is irreparable.

200 rounds to “Break it In”? I suggest the manufacturer break it in for me before I purchase it. 200 rounds of 6.5 Creedmoor can run close to $400…..not to mention more expensive ammo that it’s rated to handle.
I suggest you shop around if youre spending $400 on 200 rounds of 6.5 creedmoor, you can find it pretty easily for a decent amount below a dollar per round. and the break-in period is for the sparking from titanium shards not any other functional reasons. if you arent going to be using this under NV for those first 200 rounds, youll be fine
These are truly state of the art suppressors that work awesome! Check out the video on YouTube of Ian from forgotton weapons, putting one to the test with a full auto AR and of the shelf supersonic ammo..
