SILENCER SATURDAY #263: Suppressed SHOT Show 2023 Recap

Good evening everyone and welcome back to TFB’s Silencer Saturday brought to you by Yankee Hill Machine, manufacturers of the new Fat Cat 5.56mm suppressor. We just wrapped up a busy week in Las Vegas (our coverage will continue into this coming week) so let’s take a look at the suppressed SHOT Show of 2023. This was a pretty big year for silencers; did your next can debut at the show?

If I had to pick a theme for the suppressors at the 2023 SHOT Show, I’d would be 3D printing. Several major manufacturers announced silencers made with additive manufacturing along with some newcomers to the NFA space. It was more than seven years ago that I reviewed the Delta P Design Brevis II. At the time, using 3D printing to make suppressors was a mixture of controversy and skepticism. Today, consumers have a choice of 10 or more suppressors that are made without the use if traditional machining. Exciting times.

I’d like to thank our TFB and TFBTV for a week of hard work and for bringing you the best SHOT Show coverage possible. I’m incredibly proud of the TFB family and wish that we could all get together more often.

Have a great week everyone. Be safe, have fun, and we’ll see you back here next weekend for another Silencer Saturday.
