SureFire VP of Suppressors and Weapons Barry Dueck, and SureFire Director of Product Management for Suppressors and Weapons Cody Carroll, go over the famous USASOC Operator Suppressor System Durability Test to show us what factors to consider when selecting a combat suppressor.
SureFire’s philosophy has always been that durability, signature reduction, accuracy, repeatability and sound suppression are the most important factors to consider when evaluating a suppressor design for combat or duty use.
As sensible as the use of silencers is in police and military applications, the escape of the retained gases from the ejection port is irritating for the shooter and has disadvantages in combat. B&T successfully solved this problem as early as 2013 when designing the MP9 suppressor with the invention of the low-pressure expansion chamber. Since the gases ejected backwards when firing a large numbers of shots with assault rifles or machine guns make it difficult for the shooter to breathe, B&T has now transferred the principle of the low-pressure expansion chamber to suppressor’s assault rifles and machine guns. The RBS suppressor significantly reduces the combustion gases ejected from the ejection window. The low-pressure expansion chamber only minimally increases the size and weight of the silencer compared to conventional silencers, while muzzle flash and noise are suppressed similarly well as with the proven B&T suppressors.
The RBS is available in calibers 5.56 (.223) and 7.62 (.308) each in a direct mountable version for various muzzle threads as well as with a newly developed quick release fitting all NATO A2 muzzle flash hiders.
The product was especially designed for military users because for some missions, every gram of weight makes a difference. The Impuls-OLS™ pistol suppressor in 9 x 19 mm has been designed for minimum weight and excellent noise reduction. The Impuls-OLS is the same length but still more than 110 grams lighter than the standard Impuls-IIA™. The Impuls-OLS™ is a very good choice not only for military or police users but also for civilian users. It has been tested to be both reliable and effective with many different types of pistols.
According to customer requests, the Impuls-OLS is available with many different thread sizes and therefore can be used with basically every standard pistol. The Impuls-OLS™ is available in a standard length and in a compact version.
Since the Commonwealth of Virginia turned blue last Fall, Democratic lawmakers have introduced a slate of anti-gun legislation, along with bills that would curtail freedom of speech.
This is their report on the current state of affairs.
RICHMOND, VA — This morning the Virginia House Public Safety Committee voted 12 – 9 in favor of passing an amended version of House Bill 961. Knox Williams, President of the American Suppressor Association, was on hand to testify in opposition. The vote took place on party lines, with the exception of Delegate Joshua Cole (D-28), who abstained. Now that the bill has passed committee, the House of Delegates will have until Tuesday, February 11th to pass this legislation prior to the crossover deadline.
The amended version of HB 961 makes several key concessions regarding suppressors. Chief among them is that lawfully obtained suppressors in Virginia will no longer be subject to confiscation. That means, should the bill become law, anyone who possesses a suppressor in the state prior to July 1st would be able to keep them. ASA spoke with legislators who said that the educational groundwork laid by the Association over the past month – including meetings with every member of the committee or their staff – was a key factor in their decision to amend the suppressor provisions of the bill. While this is a step in the right direction, HB 961 remains a bill that we oppose.
When asked during the hearing by Delegate Sam Rasoul (D-11) to clarify our stance on the bill, Williams made the following statement:
“Our position is essentially that these have been heavily federally regulated since 1934 and that those federal regulations are more than exhaustive; that additional state level regulations should not be imposed upon suppressors.”
ASA would like to thank Chairman Patrick Hope (D-47) for granting us time during the hearing to provide expert testimony to the committee.
The new language, which was not made available until several minutes into Delegate Mark Levine’s (D-45) opening testimony, reads:
18.2-308.11. Import, sale, transfer, etc., of silencers; penalty.
For purposes of this section, “silencer” means any device for silencing, muffling, or diminishing the report of a firearm, including any part or combination of parts designed or intended for use in assembling or fabricating such a device.
It is unlawful for any person to import, sell, transfer, manufacture, or purchase a silencer, provided that a person may transfer a silencer in accordance with the provisions of the National Firearms Act (26 U.S.C. § 5801 et seq.). A violation of this section is punishable as a Class 6 felony.
The provisions of this section shall not apply to (i) any government officer, agent, or employee, or member of the Armed Forces of the United States, to the extent that such person is otherwise authorized to acquire a silencer and does so while acting within the scope of his duties; (ii) the manufacture of a silencer by a firearms manufacturer for the purpose of sale to any branch of the Armed Forces of the United States or to a law-enforcement agency in the Commonwealth for use by that agency or its employees, provided that the manufacturer is properly licensed under federal, state, and local laws; or (iii) the sale or transfer of a silencer to any branch of the Armed Forces of the United States or to a law-enforcement agency in the Commonwealth for use by that agency or its employees.
Statesboro, GA, January 25, 2020— Enfield Rifle Company, a new US silencer manufacturer, recently announced the release of their Patent Pending NOVUS™ Silencer System. Designed by an Army Ranger turned Mechanical Engineer, this new take on multi-caliber and modularity allows for a new level of user optimization never before seen.
NOVUS, the first silencer introduced by Enfield Rifle Company, is a Patent Pending game changer. This multi-caliber silencer allows the user to optimize the silencer for any firearm ranging from .17 HMR through 458 SOCOM and pistol calibers up to and including .45 ACP.
While being constructed from the most durable materials on the market, the NOVUS™ can be optimized within minutes to fit a multitude of firearms. What does this mean for the consumer? Multiple rifles or handguns, one silencer.
The Modular Baffle Core™ technology not only allows quick caliber class configuration, but also makes it easy to clean the baffles as well as change the blast baffle. This will allow for optimal life of the silencer. While easy at home routine cleaning keeps the carbon build up from diminishing performance and adding weight to the silencer over time.
Not only does the NOVUS deliver superior value with its revolutionary 3-in-1 design, it also provides dB levels comparable to dedicated caliber suppressors. All in a lightweight package weighing in at only 14 ounces in its max configuration.
