I run a suppressor myself (Ops 16th Model) that uses the muzzle brake/mount as the blast baffle. The idea is that it is better off to replace an $80-100 muzzle device instead of replacing an $800 suppressor due to baffle erosion. And it is tough to argue with as you can already see erosion on my Ops two-port muzzle brake.
Having said that, when the muzzle brake/mount is half the price of the suppressor, I'm not sure how well the logic pans out in an economic sense. I'd need to know the price and service life of the NT4 to take a guess; but just balparking it, it looks like you'd need to be able to get 7,000 rounds from a normal steel brake/mount to beat the Triple Tap economnically.
