New to the Griffin system "Cam Lok " and after rifle suppressor using the YHM PHANTOM'S systems. I believe this system will be best for my pistol suppression usage

Ez lok is amazing. the only way I could imagine it being any better is if it somehow has a retention locking mechanism. Probably too much to ask for on a handgun.

I will preface by saying I have used cam lok for quite a while now and it's better than direct thread by a lot. The only real problem I have found is with novice shooters. If they are not good at recoil management the cam lok can come loose a lot faster than expected. With me shooting though--I've never had a problem. For my purposes though EZ Lok is better than Cam Lok, and Cam Lok is way better than direct thread. +1 on the idea of a retention locking mechanism. That would make the EZ/Cam systems the ultimate system.

Assuming everything during your test was equal with both mounts, the direct thread appeared to have less recoil when shooting vs the EZ-LOK. Watched twice and seemed noticeable. I personally prefer direct thread when it makes the most sense.

Bear in mind with my question: I know very little about this subject but have a Resistance 9mm from six years ago and haven't used it. Long story. Question: what did you mean when you said that you preferred direct thread when it makes sense? When would it or wouldn't it make sense for your potential usages. Thx.

I have seven handguns fitted with the CAM-Loc system (three 45ACP, three 9mm, and one 45acp/45 Super (HK Mark23)). The system has performed flawlessly.

I started with Cam-Lok and have gone back to direct thread for 2 reasons. 1. You have to remove the cam lok adapter every time you want to clean your pistol. 2. At about $60 each, the cam lok adapters get expensive if you have more than a few pistols.

Those are definitely caveats with both Cam-Lok and EZ-Lok. I have found that I can mitigate the 1st problem by clamping my slide upside down in a vice. Then I can get the barrel pretty clean with a toothbrush, rag and a bore snake. Every third or fourth cleaning, I'll take the adapter off and give it a full clean. Personally, I find the trade off worth it. It's nice to be able to shoot three full normal capacity mags and not have to worry about the suppressor loosening. With direct thread, it would start walking off a couple times a mag. I also like the quick push and twist like a 3-lug.

I get the cost part, but what type of pistol are you using that you have to remove it to clean? For my Glock and FN pistols, I just tilt the breach out of the slide once I've removed the recoil spring assembly. The barrel doesn't need completely separated in order to clean it. I've never used EZ lok, but LOVE the Cam lok.

Having not bought one before, can you tell me why removing the adapter is a big deal (regarding your comment about cleaning difficulty)? How much trouble is it? I haven't used one before.

Do you folks think you could make a muzzle device that's a compensator/cam lok in one? Like a Plan A muzzle break that you mount a silencer to but for handguns.

Great info with the group size comparison but the background music was loud and distracting!

While I think the EZlock/CAMlock systems do offer benefits, the video's 'accuracy' demonstration was not supportive of the conclusion drawn. First, the shooting should have been done from a rest to reduce variables. Second, shooter form and firing rate were not conducive to accuracy determination. Third, the shooter concludes that his accuracy decreased as the number rounds increased and the can loosened. That is not supported by the video. The last shots in the string fired were more accurate than those fired in the middle of the string. While a full blown science experiment is not expected, a bit more preparation and professionalism are expected in a manufacturer's videos. Especially if they are trying to prove a point via a demonstration...

Interesting comment regarding threaded shots getting better toward end of string. It makes me wonder if he tightened it sporadically throughout the string of fire.
