I’d love to see that post if you can find it. While I was looking into this subject, the closest I was able to find was a user who posted their blem Tisha as they picked it up from the dealer, and the suppressor had a crack that was bad enough that I could reasonably see someone getting hurt if they actually shot it. However, in the comments, EVT (one of SAW’s more active dealers and one of the sellers of these blem Tisha’s, so grain of salt) claimed that only 65 of these blems were sold, and they were all recalled and replaced with brand new models before the users had a chance to shoot them. So even if these blems carried a reasonable risk of “kabooming,” I’m not convinced that any of them were even in the wild long enough to give users a chance to blow them up.

Compare this to the Sierra 5 fiasco, in Dead Air sold an order of magnitude more units as functional suppressors and not blems, whose baffles were disintegrating after a few hundred rounds, and never actually issued a recall or even admitted the suppressors could be faulty and offered a “voluntary upgrade” à la P320. And yet, people today would call you excessively risk averse for boycotting Dead Air products today, despite them arguably having a much worse response than SAW to a similarly bad product launch. Personally, as an outsider with no stake in any of these companies, the SAW hate seems a bit over the top.
