Fischer Development Suppressor for Glock 17 and 19 (Austria)
The desire to make gunfire silent is probably as old as the first pull of the trigger.
At IWA and EnforceTac, in the Pol-Tec booth, we found a very interesting solution from Fischer Development. They’re based in Austria, so it’s a safe bet that their suppressor fits the Glock 17 and 19 and – at least for the time being – no other brand.
The Fischer Development suppressor fits with just one click and you don’t have to make any changes to the Glock. It looks similar to some suppressors developed for shotguns.
The suppressor fits to the accessory rail of the Glock, so you don’t need a threaded barell.
You continue to use your normal sights, as this suppressor doesn’t build anything over the normal line-of-sight.
Exactly how the barrel can move during recoil and how good the level of suppression is was difficult to try out on an exhibition. One concern is that the Glock shoots into an “open” suppressor, instead of being threaded onto the barrel, which shouldn’t be beneficial if you’re trying to reduce noise.
This suppressor looks rather heavy, but if the stated weight of 350 grams it’s probably not so bad.
