  2. Using spacers with suppressor to tune harmonics for accuracy

    Has this been done...or has it been tried and proven not to work. I have seen how the use of tuners or muzzle breaks + tuners are effective in tuning harmonics to optimize accuracy. Can this be done with a suppressor by using spacers to achieve the same affect?
