HUXWRX Mission Team Bolt Gun Suppressors

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2026

Seen during SOF Week, the HUXWRX Mission Team Bolt Gun Suppressors were purpose built for use with 6.5 Creedmoor, 7 PRC, 308, and .338 Lapua Magnum bolt guns.

They are designed to attach to either a three port muzzle break or direct thread in multiple thread pitches.

Test by and certified for use by the Army Research Lab, these suppressors are made of 17-4 stainless steel with HUXWRX’ non-line of sight DLC coating which applies coating to the inside and outside of the suppressor.

Rampart Range Day 26 – Canadian Modular Assault Rifle Update

Wednesday, May 27th, 2026

Manufactured by Colt Canada, the two variants of the Canadian Modular Assault Rifle have been designated C25 and C26 and will replace the currently fielded C7 and C8 which have been in service for 35 years. Chambered in 5.56mm NATO, Colt Canada was able to quickly bring the project to fruition due to improvement efforts which have been ongoing.

I was able to photograph and fire both variants at Rampart Range Day. These photos are configured as per the contract, including optics and outfitted with the Strategic Sciences Corporation Multi Function Muzzle Device provided in Canada by Millbrook Strategic Sciences. Interestingly, the Department of National Defence did not option the add-on component of the MFMD and are sticking solely with the primary device. Additionally, both models are outfitted with new variable power optics by Colt Optics.

Both feature ambidextrous controls and a single piece upper receiver which integrates the handguard.

The C25 (General Service) features:

  • 13.7″ barrel
  • 5 M-Lok slots
  • 1-6x LVPO

Still in final development, the C26 (Full Spectrum) features:

  • 15.7″ barrel
  • 7 M-Lok slots
  • 1-10x LVPO

The production contract which was awarded in March calls for 30,000 assault rifles between 2026 and 2029.

Colt gave a peak at the new Canadian Modular Assault Rifle being procured soon by Canada’s Department of National Defence.

Unfortunately, the example on display did not include the new Colt Optics LVPO but it did have the Strategic Sciences Corp Multi Function Muzzle Device.

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.

MODTAC Suppressor Shields Assigned National Stock Numbers

Tuesday, April 14th, 2026

I first met the MODTAC team back in 2018 and their unique suppressor covers. Founded by Special Forces NCOs, their products are driven by experience.

They’ve updated their Suppressor Shields over the years and here is a summary of the updates.

  • Mounting Location: 3 & 9 O’Clock M-LOK slots
  • Weight: 9.8-10.4 Ounces
  • Max Operation Temps: 1600 Degrees  (Suppressor Temp)
  • Full Auto Rated: YES
  • Color: FDE or Black
  • Temperature Reduction: (80% +)

They also sent me this press release regarding their new NSNs:


Elizabeth, CO – Modern Tactical Creations Secures CRANE-Issued NSNs for MAX Series Suppressor Shields on SOCOM Weapon Systems.

MODTAC’s M-RAC MAX Series now federally cataloged for the Geissele URG-I and SIG SAUER RSAR.

Modern Tactical Creations, LLC (MODTAC), manufacturer of the Suppressor Shield line of advanced suppressor covers, announces the award of National Stock Numbers (NSNs) for two MAX Series M-RAC Suppressor Shields purpose-built for SOCOM-specific weapon platforms. NSNs were granted by Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane Division (CRANE), authorizing both products for federal acquisition.

The newly cataloged products are:

URG-I M-RAC MAX Series | NSN: 1005-01-737-9275 | SKU: 18B-023-A-65/FDE

SIG SAUER RSAR M-RAC MAX Series | NSN: 1005-01-737-9282 | SKU: 18B-023-C-60

The M-RAC MAX Series Shields utilize a multi-layer advanced composite construction engineered for low thermal transfer, maintaining a Shield surface more than 80% cooler than the suppressor — even through 1,400°F suppressor temperatures and full-auto rates of fire — mitigating operator contact burns, eliminating mirage and thermal bloom that degrade optic performance, and reducing the weapon system’s thermal signature.

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
