You have a number of options, they are 1.125-28 Alpha compatible cans. If you're trying to swap between multiple fixed barrel hosts with different threads, a taper mount is my recommendation. Basically 3 pattern options for that: -Griffin taper mounts. Griffin makes an Alpha adapter, as do...

The Obsidian requires a 16" barrel for .45-70, and Rugged does not say no to supersonic loads, but given that they do stipulate subsonic only for .458 SOCOM, might not want to run the hottest .45-70 ammo. Pistol cans with heavy .45-70 won't sound that great anyway, light on volume for 50-60 gr...

If you care about your warranty, you need to have that question answered by SilencerCo.

We have found it to exceed the performance of similarly sized suppressors. There are, of course, larger & longer 9mm cans that may outperform it at muzzle end, which is sometimes of consideration on manual action hosts, but on autoloaders, the port noise typically dominates at-ear SPL with this...

When I developed the TLX, durability wasn't the primary design parameter. Including mount, this is a can that weighs just 4.3 ounces in 9mm, 4.1 ounces in .45 cal, light enough to be used without a booster on most hosts. That was the objective. Before we put it out there, though, we did our...

Usually not, especially with rimfire & pistol. The misalignment has to be severe for the bullets to not be "guided" by the baffles. Sometimes end caps get it, though, as there's typically more distance there than between baffles. Even with rifle suppressors its usually not catastrophic...

We just got approvals on 2 form 4s that were filed as individual on 3/29/2024. 6 calendar days.

Using proper targets for precision shooting might help; aim small, miss small. Nevertheless, if this is 100 yards, that looks like about 1.5 MOA with 5 shots, closer to 2 MOA with 10 shots (what really counts). This would be acceptable with an AR carbine and ball ammo, not so much with a heavy...

AMT made some really neat guns, but unfortunately quality was pretty hit-or-miss. Some are great, some are jammomatics with gobs of tool marks and asymmetric features.

Where did you find reviews that put the S&W on top? I'm a big S&W guy, have more than 30 revolvers and autos, but I have to say, of those 4 pistols, the M&P and Five-seveN are tied in last place for me, with the Ruger at #2 and the PSA Rock leading the pack by a wide margin. Price isn't even a...

We've done the Gemtech Trinity before. I'd have to find an invoice for what it ran and exactly what we did, but most centerfire cans do fall into the range mentioned above except when they're particularly large or get lots of titanium parts. I can't find an image of a Trinity, but here's a...

I'd be tempted to print out a sticker like this: 😆😆😆 and put it on the tag.

This.

In a manual action with a good can, subsonic .300 blk is really quiet. In an autoloader, though, it's still pretty loud at ear due to port noise. Subsonic .300 blk is lower pressure, and as such, the port location and size are configured to allow enough gas volume at high enough pressure to...

We got an approval Friday for a January 10th submission. So 44 days.
