Yankee Hill Machine’s new 30LTA Suppressor

    1/24/13 EDIT: The LTA acronym was updated along with caliber clarification. Also noted that this suppressor is available without the teeth.

    YHM’s new 30LTA (Light, Tactical, Aggressive) detachable suppressor is specifically designed for 6.8mm, 300 Blackout, and 7.62x39mm and is capable of handling the .308 Winchester cartridge. It has an all new style with with a new grip pattern and some some mean-looking teeth. It is also available in a smooth version without the teeth.

    You would not want to be on the receiving end of this suppressor, in any regard. These teeth are sharp.

    It’s also notable for having two points of contact with the flash hider it attaches to. If the suppressor somehow comes loose from vibrations, jolting, gunfire, etc, the second point of contact will prevent the suppressor from jiggling and affecting accuracy. To demonstrate this, the sales rep unscrewed the 30LTA a bit and asked me to try and jiggle it, which I was unsuccessful in doing.
