I didn’t really believe it either. A claimed 108 decibels with CCI Standard ammo? More reasonable than JJFU’s claims, that’s for freakin’ sure, but still hard to believe when dry firing a Ruger 77/22 is ~106.5 dB and simply loading a round into a Ruger 10/22 is nearly 105 dB. But SilencerCo proved it to […]
Just in time for SilencerCo‘s tenth anniversary, the company is releasing what it’s claiming is the quietest .22LR suppressor on the market, the Switchback 22. It’s a modular suppressor designed to be run in four different configurations on calibers all the way up to and including 5.7×28. SilencerCo’s press release follows, but stay tuned because […]
Dozens of TTAG readers braved pea soup-thick fog and Boston rush hour-like traffic last night to attend our December get-together at the Range at Austin’s plush Patriot Club. There they shot a variety of premium pistols like the Wilson Combat EDC-X9, Beretta’s APX, SilencerCo’s integrally suppressed Maxim 9, and Hudson Manufacturing’s innovative new H9. About […]
Now through Monday, SilencerCo has everything in their online store marked down 20%, plus all orders ship free. Well, almost everything is 20% off. Their not-legally-a-“firearm” suppressed muzzleloader, the Maxim 50, is 10% off. With only a few states excepted, this hearing safe .50 cal can be ordered online and shipped right to your door.
Anyone else surprised thehill.com ran this op-ed? . . . The racist origin of gun control laws Kansas Senator Samuel Pomeroy extolled the three “indispensable” “safeguards of liberty under our form of government,” the sanctity of the home, the right to vote, and “the right to bear arms.” So “if the cabin door of the freedman […]
Hudson’s H9 still seems to be the belle of the SHOT Show ball, but I’m still equally (at least) exited about SilencerCo’s Maxim 9. Above, both soon-to-be-released pistols can be seen side-by-side (photo from Hudson’s Facebook page). One suppressed, one integrally-suppressed. Below, a photo showing the Maxim 9 in its shortest and longest configurations, plus […]
Part of what makes SHOT Show cool is the engineering models and displays you get to see. Over at the SilencerCo booth they have a cutaway GLOCK 20 with a similarly sliced SilencerCo Osprey on the front. It’s a rare look at two nifty designs and definitely worth a post here on TTAG for y’all […]
According to SilencerCo’s CEO Josh Waldron, Trump’s two oldest sons, Donald Jr. and Eric, use SilencerCo products. SilencerCo was an early and vocal endorser of Donald Trump for President. As a result, Mr. Waldron received one of the coveted invitations to Donald Trump’s inauguration as President of the United States. From Silencerco’s facebook page: SilencerCo CEO Josh Waldron is […]
SilencerCo has always been the 800 pound gorilla in the room when it comes to silencer innovation, production, and marketing. They make a lot of silencers, and it can start to get confusing fast. On the pistol side alone, SilencerCo makes eight different models within three subgroups – Osprey, Octane, and Omega K. The Omega 45K […]
One of the not so secret secrets in the gun industry is that SilencerCo Sakers have a habit of departing the end of the barrel and making their way downrange. Ask anyone at SilencerCo and they’ll tell you that the trifecta mount is fine assuming it’s used properly. If not, the cans tend to go […]
Capitol Armory and SilencerCo shared a bay at the end of the expansive (well over half a mile of shooting lanes!) Texas Firearms Festival. It was a very popular destination, but I pushed an old lady out of the way and snagged the most recent prototype of SilencerCo’s integrally-suppressed 9mm pistol, the Maxim 9, and put a […]
