Last month I was invited out to West Valley City, Utah to visit SilencerCo Headquarters. As an owner of some SilencerCo cans and a fan of their products, I was extremely eager to go check out where my cans were made. Also since I am now behind enemy lines in California, [Read More…]
For the month of August, we asked our readers the colossal question of what are some of the BEST Suppressors on the market today! Since that is such a blanket question when there are so many niche silencers out there, we divided the voting into 4 unique categories: [Read More…]
At a SilencerCo media event, SilencerCo unveiled some new products. One of them is a non-NFA Maxim 9. It was developed a while ago but kept under wraps until now. I got a chance to check it out so let us take a closer look. As you can see in the photo above, the slide [Read More…]

SilencerCo is coming out with an adaptable .22 LR suppressor wherein a user can change the configuration of the tube to either match a handgun or a rifle at a hearing safe level but also coming in a very small package so as to not take too much space at the end of a muzzle.

Many companies are making multi caliber suppressors these days. Those same companies are making rimfire and .556 specific suppressors, but only a few companies are making a suppressor specifically designed for the popular 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge. Silent Legion [Read More…]

The weeks leading up to the SHOT Show are always an insane flood of product leaks and announcements; not All Quiet from the western venue. After all, if a company launches a new model or line during the show, it gets lost in a sea of noise. But I was somewhat surprised [Read More…]
SilencerCo, as we currently know it, is no more. Or at least changing rapidly. CEO Josh Waldron and President Jonathan Shultz have stepped down from their senior leadership positions of the West Valley based silencer manufacturer. The news comes just weeks after former [Read More…]
Andrew Quant of Atwell Tactical modified a SilencerCo Maxim 9 to be full auto. I am interested to see what was done and how the sear was made. It would be cool if it was a switchable selector like a G18 or those Glock full auto sears with a button in the back so [Read More…]

I consider my SilencerCo Saker 762 to be an ‘end-of-the-world’ rifle silencer. It is simply a beast, capable of eating high pressure rounds on short barrels. And if need be, the Saker can pull double duty as a blunt force weapon, hammer or a jack stand. However, it [Read More…]
