Introducing the Legionary 22: A Lightweight .22LR Suppressor

Thursday, April 16th, 2026

Built for Practical Performance

The Legionary 22 is the newest rimfire suppressor from Warrior Systems Manufacturing. Designed specifically for .22 LR platforms, it focuses on what most shooters actually care about: low weight, effective sound reduction, simple maintenance, and long-term durability.

Designed for .22 LR Platforms

The Legionary 22 is purpose-built for rimfire rifles and pistols. Instead of adapting a larger suppressor design, this model was engineered specifically around the performance and size requirements of .22 LR firearms.

The result is a suppressor that stays compact, performs consistently, and doesn’t add unnecessary weight to lightweight rimfire setups.

Lightweight and Compact

Weight and balance matter on a rimfire platform. The Legionary 22 weighs just 3.5 ounces and features a 1-inch diameter, making it well-suited for both rifles and pistols without affecting handling.

The body is constructed from 6061-T6 aluminum and finished with a Type III hardcoat anodized black treatment for strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term wear durability.

Effective Sound Reduction

The Legionary 22 reduces sound levels to approximately 114.10 decibels, providing a noticeable reduction compared to unsuppressed rimfire shooting.

This makes it a practical option for:

  • Rimfire target shooting
  • Small-game hunting
  • Training with .22 LR platforms
  • Low-noise shooting environments

The goal was straightforward: effective suppression without unnecessary bulk or complexity.Built for Easy Maintenance Rimfire suppressors require regular cleaning due to heavy fouling. The Legionary 22 is designed to make maintenance simple and predictable.

The baffle stack is not timed, which allows the suppressor to be disassembled and cleaned without worrying about alignment during reassembly. This makes routine maintenance faster and more straightforward—especially for high?volume rimfire shooters.

Cleaning is recommended after approximately 300 rounds to maintain consistent performance over time. The suppressor ships with everything needed for installation and basic maintenance, including:

  • Direct thread end cap
  • 1/2×28 thread compatibility
  • 7/8 wrench
  • Instruction manual

Specifications

  • Caliber: .22 LR
  • Weight: 3.5 oz
  • Diameter: 1 inch
  • Material: 6061-T6 aluminum
  • Finish: Type III hardcoat anodized black
  • Thread Pitch: 1/2×28
  • Included: Suppressor, direct thread end cap, 7/8 wrench, instruction manual

New Arrival

The Legionary 22 is now available with an MSRP of $189.99.

For shooters looking for a lightweight, purpose-built rimfire suppressor that focuses on performance rather than unnecessary features, the Legionary 22 delivers exactly what it was designed to do.

Q Introduces the Lefty Silencer: Breathe Easy

Thursday, April 9th, 2026

Q is proud to announce the release of the LEFTY, a new silencer built around one simple idea: if you’re going to do flow-through, do it right.

The LEFTY utilizes Q’s Low Blow™ technology to control gas through a directional internal flow path – reducing backpressure, lowering port pressure, and minimizing gas to the shooter. The result is a suppressor that runs cleaner, cycles more consistently, and performs reliably across a wide range of platforms, including short barrels and higher-pressure cartridges.

At the core of LEFTY is a 3D printed internal structure that integrates the endcap, allowing for complex geometry that can’t be achieved through traditional machining. This is where the work happens. The tube remains a welded outer shell for strength and durability (because why would you print a tube?), paired with a precision machined mount to ensure proper alignment and repeatability.

This isn’t a fully printed novelty. It’s a system built with purpose… printing what matters and machining what should be machined.

LEFTY delivers low backpressure, reduced blowback, and very little visible flash, without sacrificing sound performance.

The LEFTY is available now through Q dealers nationwide.

LEFTY Specifications

Caliber: 5.56mm / 6mm ARC

Weight: 14.2 oz

Length: 6.5 in

Diameter: 1.625 in

Mount: Quickie fast-attach taper mount

Core: 3D printed stainless steel

Finish: Melonite

Full Auto Rated: Yes

Barrel Restrictions: None

MSRP: $800

Revival Defense Launches Silencer Resource Center, a Suppressor Compatibility Platform

Saturday, March 21st, 2026

Revival Defense is proud to announce Silencer Resource Center. This new platform is a free, data-driven system built to solve one of the most persistent issues in the suppressor industry: compatibility.

As modular suppressor systems and HUB-based mounting solutions have grown in popularity, the number of possible combinations between silencers, adapters, and muzzle devices has expanded rapidly. Until now, end users and dealers have largely relied on scattered forum posts, social media discussions, and manufacturer communication to determine what works. This often resulted in inconsistent or incorrect information.

The Silencer Resource Center was developed to bring clarity and structure to that problem. Built from the ground up using in-house physical measurements rather than hypotheticals or manufacturer-provided assumptions, the system evaluates muzzle device dimensions, adapter interface geometry, and blast chamber depth to determine compatibility across a wide range of silencers and mounting systems. Each new component added to the database is automatically evaluated against existing entries, allowing the platform to scale quickly. What began as an internal tool to support retail customers and product development has evolved into a comprehensive compatibility engine designed for the broader industry.

The platform is intended for both dealers and end users. Dealers can use the system to confidently answer fitment questions at the counter or online, while end users can quickly identify viable configurations without relying on outdated or anecdotal sources. In addition to compatibility data, the Silencer Resource Center offers comparison tools and a system builder that allow users to explore complete setups, including overall length considerations for pin and weld builds, and understand how different components interact within a given configuration. The platform is not intended to serve as a review or recommendation site, and instead remains focused solely on planning and compatibility validation.

Future development will focus on expanding the depth and accessibility of data within the system. Planned efforts include integration with other suppressor reference platforms and increased incorporation of open source data to further strengthen coverage across manufacturers and mounting ecosystems. As participation grows, the platform is designed to become more comprehensive while maintaining its core focus on objective compatibility.

The Silencer Resource Center is available now at silencerresource.com. The platform is completely free to use and continues to expand as new products and data are added. Development and ongoing support for the system are made possible through customer patronage of Revival Defense and the broader ecosystem of dealers and manufacturers who support their work.

Strategic Sciences LLC Completes Successful Phase II Government Inspection & Performance Verification for the Multi-Function Muzzle Device (MFMD)

Thursday, February 12th, 2026

Salt Lake City, UT — February 9, 2026 — Organization of Strategic Sciences LLC (Strategic Sciences) today announced the successful completion of a Phase II Government Inspection & Performance Verification (GIPV) for its Multi-Function Muzzle Device (MFMD), marking a significant milestone in the development and maturation of the company’s next-generation suppressor technology.

Building on a multi-year development effort spearheaded by the ASW Special Operations & Low Intensity Conflict (SO/LIC) Capability Development & Innovation (CD&I) Office, the Phase II GIPV validated both performance and manufacturability attributes of the MFMD system under government oversight. Completion of this inspection confirms the system’s readiness to transition from advanced development toward broader fielding.  This multi-year program has yielded the integration of the MFMD into 68 specific weapon platforms across 13 calibers from 5.56 to .50BMG.

The MFMD is a hybrid suppressor architecture that integrates flash suppression, sound reduction, and recoil mitigation into a single, compact device—without increasing weapon length or introducing the trade-offs commonly associated with legacy muzzle devices. By treating gas flow and energy management as a unified system rather than isolated functions, the MFMD delivers balanced performance across all three domains.

“Successful completion of Phase II GIPV is a critical step in demonstrating that the MFMD is not only technically effective, but also producible and scalable,” said Russ Oliver, Chief Executive Officer of Strategic Sciences. “This milestone reflects years of disciplined engineering, close collaboration with government partners, and a relentless focus on operational excellence.”

The inspection included verification of system configuration, technical documentation, quality controls, and performance consistency, providing confidence in the MFMD’s ability to meet or exceed demanding

requirements for flash, sound, and recoil mitigation, as well as durability, reliability, repeatability, and future production readiness.

Strategic Sciences continues to advance MFMD development in alignment with end-user requirements and operational feedback, supporting the company’s core mission: TO PROVIDE TECHNOLOGICAL OVERMATCH THROUGH INNOVATION, SCIENCE, AND THE PRINCIPLES OF SERVICE.

Dead Air Silencers Expands RXD Suppressor Series

Friday, January 16th, 2026

January 2026 – Dead Air Silencers, manufacturer of the next evolution in quiet, purpose-built suppressors, expands its popular RXD-series suppressor line for 2026 with the introduction of the RXD910Ti.

The RXD910Ti is the third advanced suppressor designed and manufactured by Dead Air Silencers under license from Sturm, Ruger & Co., Inc. to compliment Ruger’s innovative firearm designs. Dead Air developed this suppressor specifically to optimize performance for 9mm applications while also delivering enhanced sound suppression in 10mm pistol applications.

Caliber ratings for the RXD910Ti include 5.7x28mm, 9x19mm, .38 Special, .357 Magnum, 10mm Auto, .300 BLK, and .400 Legend, with full-auto compatibility in 9mm, 10mm Auto, 5.7x28mm, and .300 BLK subsonic. This makes the RXD910Ti ideal for use in a broad range of caliber-compatible Ruger firearms, such as:

Ruger-5.7®

RXM®

LC Carbine™

PC Carbine™

Ruger American® Gen II

Marlin® Model 1894™

The RXD910Ti credits its unparalleled acoustic performance to Dead Air’s innovative Triskelion® baffle system, which comes via an additive manufacturing process using 6AL4V titanium. The result is a lightweight (11.4 oz. with piston assembly), exceptionally strong suppressor crafted into a solid, continuous piece of titanium. The integral baffle design delivers class-leading sound reduction while minimizing backpressure for a cleaner, more pleasant shooting experience.

Additionally, the RXD910Ti features forward porting that shears and redirects gas away from the suppressor’s central axis and toward the muzzle. From the shooter’s perspective, this means softer felt recoil and faster sight picture reacquisition for follow-up shots.

Included with the RXD910Ti is a 1/2-28 piston made of nitride-finished 17-4 PH stainless steel for use on tilt-barrel pistol applications. An RXD 7075 aluminum front cap boasting a Level III hard coat black anodized finish ensures ease of maintenance and R-series cross-compatibility. Finally, the RXD910Ti comes with an installation tool and Quick-Start Guide.
