Operation and Maintenance Manual

recommended that users disas-
semble and clean the A.S.A.P.
System after every 500 rounds
or after every range visit to re-
move accumulated fouling.
WARNING! Only perform dis-
assembly, cleaning, and
maintenance procedures on
silencers that are not
mounted to a firearm. At-
tempting to clean or perform
maintenance on a mounted
silencer could lead to prop-
erty damage, personal injury
and/or death.
1. If the silencer is mounted
to a host firearm, remove it. See
“Removing your Ti-RANT 45-M from a host firearm”.
2. Unscrew and remove the piston housing assembly from the main tube
body. See Figure 10.
3. Press the rear of the piston shaft forward to remove it from the piston
housing. See Figure 11.
4. Remove the driving spring from the piston housing. See Figure 12.
CLEANING AND MAINTAIN-
ING THE A.S.A.P. SYSTEM
WARNING! Only perform dis-
assembly, cleaning, and
maintenance procedures on
silencers that are not
mounted to a firearm. At-
tempting to clean or perform
maintenance on a mounted
silencer could lead to prop-
erty damage, personal injury
and/or death.
1. Using a plastic bristle brush
and solvent, clean the exte-
rior of the piston of any accu-
mulated carbon. See Figure
13.
2. Some pistons have O-rings
adjacent to the threads in the
socket in the rear of the pis-
ton. These O-rings grip sec-
tions of the host firearm
muzzle and lower the poten-
tial for the silencer to inad-
vertently unscrew during
use. Figure 14 shows the lo-
cation of one such O-ring,
shown colored red for clarity.
If the O-ring appears worn or
frayed, replace it. See the O-
ring fitment guide at the end
of this manual for replace-
ment O-ring procurement in-
formation.
3. Using a plastic bristle brush
and solvent, clean the bore
and the exterior of the
A.S.A.P. piston housing. See
Figure 15. NOTE: Stubborn
deposits may require the use
of a solvent moistened piece
of ScotchBrite cloth to re-
move.
WARNING! Do not use sand-
paper or emery cloth to clean
any part of a Ti-RANT 45-M si-
lencer. Abrasives more ag-
gressive than ScotchBrite
may damage the precision
contact surfaces of the piston, piston housing, and rear cap, resulting
in friction that can lead to malfunctions of the Ti-RANT 45-M silencer
