LIVE Blog- SilencerCo Product Announcement Event

    Hey TFB readers- the internet connection here is sparse so I’m going with a live blog approach. Dinner has started and so the announcement is happening at 7PM ET. I’m going to live blog here so come back soon and refresh this page for updates.

    I’ll include pictures and other media as fast as I can put it up!

    (reverse chronological order)

    9/16/15 update: Post on the new Maxim 9 integrally suppressed pistol.

    [7:30PM ET] – So while I can’t post any pictures or videos, I will give you a high level teaser. Our of the four products announced, two are nice and interesting but the other two are the ones noteworthy. I can’t give out any more details than that but one fits within the SilencerCo family of products and the other is outside their core competency but is pretty darn awesome.

    [7:15PM ET] – No pictures and I can’t go into details, but we just started going into the SWR (SilencerCo Weapons Research) video that you’ve seen in my earlier TFB post.

    [7:04PM ET] – Really sad news, they are putting a media embargo on everything until 9AM ET Wednesday. I just found this out at this moment, so I’ll be taking pictures and videos and such but you won’t be able to see them until Wed. My apologies for the delay, I was really hoping to share things with you tonight but you’re going to have to wait until Wed. We’ll be shooting these products out in international waters on a boat tomorrow, so I’ll be sure to get some great footage.
