Shorter & Lighter: The New NOSLER K-CAN Suppressor
Nosler entered the silencer market at the beginning of 2022 when they released their SR family of hunting rifle suppressors. The company is now expanding its suppressor product line and has just introduced the new SR-30 K or Nosler K-Can 30-caliber silencer (K stands for the German word kurz which means short). The new Nosler K-Can is essentially a shorter and lighter version of the Nosler SR-30AlTi suppressor.
Nosler @ TFB:
“We are very pleased to bring the innovative, compact, hunt-focused K-Can to the market. It’s designed and built to be the ideal suppressor for hunters who prize handiness and best-in-class noise reduction.” Pat Mundy VP Sales & Marketing Nosler, Inc.
With an overall length of about 5.85 inches and an overall weight of 7.2 ounces, the Nosler K-Can is over two inches shorter and two ounces lighter than the Nosler SR-30AlTi suppressor. Like the latter, the K-Can is also made of aluminum and titanium. The SR-30 K has a proprietary baffle stack design which according to Nosler, ensures maximum performance in a minimalist package. Similar to other Nosler suppressors, the K-Can can be mounted over a Nosler muzzle brake or directly to muzzle threads (5/8×24) using the provided adapter. The MSRP of the Nosler K-Can suppressor is $729. For more information, visit www.nosler.com.

Hard to judge it based on its technical merits for now so I'm just going to say that it looks pretty cool
We'll see how good it is after being tested by PEW Science.
