SILENCER SATURDAY #157: 300BLK Vs. 7.62×39 – The Dead Air Nomad LT

Good afternoon stealthy shooters and welcome back to another edition of TFB’s Silencer Saturday brought to you by Yankee Hill Machine, home of the new NITRO N2O modular rifle suppressor. Last week we explored the inherent problems with federal agencies interpreting laws that are rooted in subjective characteristics. Short Barrel Rifles, Machine Guns and Silencers all rely on extremely grey area interpretations (might as well drop the restrictions all together). This week we shift gears back into a review – the Dead Air Nomad LT combines the weight savings of the Nomad T with the added length of the Nomad L – both of which are fantastic suppressors.

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS: Silent Night Edition – Dead Air Nomad-TI

Besides the total repeal of the NFA, all I want for Christmas is a Dead Air Nomad-Ti Silencer.  The Nomad-Ti, based on specs alone, is up at the pinnacle of lightweight .30 cal cans. The added plaudits from TFB Honchos James and Pete don’t hurt, either.  A lightweight can that can handle high-pressure calibers up to .300 Norma Mag would be a great addition to my can collection, as I have some longer barreled firearms, such as the Sako Carbon Wolf in .300 Win Mag, that don’t take kindly to a lot of weight being put on the end of a long, slimmer barrel.

NEW Dead Air Nomad Titanium Silencer Review at Thunder Ranch!

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves reviews the all-titanium Dead Air Nomad Ti silencer/suppressor. First thing’s first: If you want to run this can on a 5.56mm/.223 rifle with shorter than a 12.5″ barrel OR on a full auto OR if you just like mag dumping, this is NOT the can for you. If you want ultra-lightweight performance for controlled fire from any rifle smaller than .300 Norma Mag…this may interest you. James runs the Dead Air Nomad Ti through the Punisher course at Thunder Ranch and reports the results. Check it out.

SILENCER SATURDAY #111: Size Matters! The New Dead Air Nomad-L

Hello everyone and welcome back to another edition of TFB’s Silencer Saturday brought to you by Yankee Hill Machine, home of the new MARC Bolt Action Pistol Chassis in 300BLK and .308WIN. Last week we discussed one of my favorite topics in the firearms world – suppressed subsonic pistol caliber carbines. For those progressives out there who have sworn off compact pistol carbines in favor of rifle PDW’s, we have a treat for you this week. Dead Air has finally announced the release of the Nomad-L, a longer and quieter version of the popular Nomad-30 released in late 2018. But does size, specifically length, matter that much? (I’ve always heard that it’s ok, size doesn’t matter, followed by sobbing and sympathy hugs).

FIRST SHOTS: The New Dead Air Armament Nomad 30 Silencer

No, it is not the weekend quite yet. Whereas we usually like to share our heavy silencer news, information and analysis on TFB’s Silencer Saturday series, today we have a special treat. Kicking off the season of new NFA product announcements is Dead Air Armament with the new Nomad 30 – a lightweight, modular 30 caliber suppressor built to live on everything from a carbine to a hunting rifle. With a variety of mounting solutions, swappable end caps, flash hiders and brakes, the Nomad was designed to be an affordable workhorse that doesn’t add on any unnecessary weight or length. How does it perform? Stick around for TFB’s first shots to find out.

NOMAD Expanding Hunting Apparel Line

NOMAD might be somewhat of a newcomer on the hunting apparel scene but it’s a line with years of planning behind it. The guys behind NOMAD have an impressive amount of experience both within the industry and as hunters themselves, so it comes as no surprise they’d design a line of hunting clothes they simply describe as “by hunters, for hunters”. Now they’re expanding their line and I cannot help but be a bit excited about what the expansion includes: women’s styles (among other things).
