Cobalt Kinetics – Scrambler Suppressor

Friday, December 15th, 2023

Released in October, the Scrambler from Cobalt Kinetics apparently flew under my radar. I just ran across it at last weekend’s Grand Opening event for Scottsdale Tactical in the Phoenix area.

3D printed from Titanium using the Laser Powder Bed Fusion method, it weighs just 6.2 ounces and is 4.75 inches long. This means it only adds 4 inches to the overall length of the carbine.

The RCB 6 mount seen here from Cobalt Kinetics but it the Scrambler is also compatible with CGS Group SCI-SIX patterned devices.

Although this is a 5.56 can, it will also work with 6 ARC.

Savage Arms Announces AccuCan Suppressor Line

Monday, December 11th, 2023

WESTFIELD, Massachusetts – December 6, 2023 – Savage Arms continues to cross categories through innovation and product design excellence with the announcement of the AccuCan line of suppressors. Initially available in three multi-caliber options, these suppressors are lightweight, field-serviceable and feature a design that reduces not only sound, but other disturbances like flash and recoil.

The suppressor market and the options available to hunters and shooters continues to grow, evolve and improve every day. For these reasons, Savage worked diligently to create a product line that stood out among the crowd. The Savage AC338, AC30 and AC22 create separation in a busy market.

“At Savage, we have continued to create new products that today’s shooters and hunters demand,” said Rob Gates, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Savage. “We’ve introduced several products into all-new categories, and AccuCan Suppressors are no different. We’re really proud of the features, technology and true performance-enhancing qualities found in our initial suppressor offerings. We’re excited to have the Savage name in another new and rapidly growing category. We can’t wait for shooters and hunters to get these into the field to see the advanced design, quality, reliability and ruggedness that accompany all Savage Arms products.”

The AccuCan Difference

Each individual AccuCan offering is feature-rich and designed to specific criteria that allow them to go head-to-head with existing suppressors in their product category. But there are a few distinct qualities across the entire AccuCan line that represent the innovation that will make them a new, top choice.

Today’s hunters and shooters are mobile, so suppressors can’t be a burden in the weight category. AccuCan offerings from the AC338 down to the AC22 are some of the lightest suppressors available today. They’re also rugged and boast unmatched strength-to-weight ratios.

AccuCans feature a MonoKore design that increases accuracy for seasoned and novice shooters alike. This is achieved by the fact that these suppressors reduce flash and recoil—as well as sound. After all, modern suppressors should do more than reduce a little noise.

Suppressors are now used frequently and owners also need and want to be self-reliant. That’s why each AccuCan is field-serviceable with an easy-to-disassemble/reassemble three-piece design. So whether shooters are at home on the bench or in the field on a hunt, adjustments can be done swiftly without the need for specialized tools or equipment.

The Initial Lineup

The first three offerings include the AC338, AC30 and AC22. With this lineup, there aren’t too many shooters or hunters out there who can’t find a suppressor for their shooting needs. Each Savage AccuCan suppressor brings with it a purpose-driven feature or characteristic to differentiate in a crowded market.

The AC338 is designed to be the lightest suppressor for PRS shooting and beats out other suppressors in its category when it comes to weight-to-strength ratio. The AC30 is also a lightweight hunting and PRS suppressor and is designed specifically for 7.62 x 51mm and 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition. Finally, the AC22 features the MonoKore design that allows the suppressor to be serviceable and the core upgradable and reparable without damaging or changing the serialized part.

Dead Air Silencers is proud to announce the all-new MOJAVE 9® is now shipping to their Distributor and Dealers nationwide. Customers will have the opportunity to purchase the MOJAVE 9® in the next week in both the black and silver models at their authorized Dead Air Silencer dealers.

The MOJAVE 9® pushes the boundaries of performance, allowing shooters to have the benefits of both low blow-back and supreme acoustic signature reduction! This is achieved by the all-new patent pending revolutionary Triskelion™ baffle design. Pushing the limits of performance through enhanced baffle geometries that have not previously been achievable through traditional manufacturing processes, their engineers have created a truly unique design that addresses issues inherent with pistol caliber suppressors.

Benefits of this revolutionary silencer include reduced back pressure, excellent flash reduction, and a class leading acoustic performance with an earthy low frequency tone. Additionally, the MOJAVE 9’s® unique structure is extremely strong and durable featuring high thermal efficiency and rapid cooling that promotes continuous efficient flow of gasses. This leads to a less toxic, lower recoil, and overall, more enjoyable shooting experience by the end user. In short… It is a breath of fresh air.

The two-piece modular design allows the end user to prioritize peak levels of sound reduction as well as lower size and weight, making it more versatile to fit the shooter’s specific needs.  With both the front and rear modules constructed of 6AL-4V Titanium, the innovative design of the MOJAVE 9® results in best-in-class acoustic signature reduction in an incredibly strong, lightweight, and compact package. 

The MOJAVE 9® in full-size configuration ships with a removable booster and a 1/2”x 28 piston, measures 7.64” in length and weighs only 9.6 ounces. The MOJAVE 9® in short configuration weighs in at a remarkably light 8.2 ounces and 5.89” OAL. The rear module is compatible with all Dead Air P-Series mounts and accessories, which include recoil booster, 3-Lug, and Key-Micro.

 

“Having been given the opportunity to design the 9mm suppressor we call the Mojave 9; I really wanted to wow our customers and give them something they’ve never seen before.”

Shop Show 23 – Multi-Function Muzzle Device from Strategic Sciences

Wednesday, October 18th, 2023

Developed under a contract with the the Irregular Warfare Technology Support Directorate (IWTSD), this new suppressor technology from Strategic Sciences is unlike anything you’ve ever seen.

This two-piece design has been kept under wraps during development and is the brainchild of Russ Oliver who originally founded OSS Suppressors before moving on to Strategic Sciences. In addition to offering a unique form factor, the flow through suppressor design is 3D printed with the muzzle device attached over the barrel and the suppressor module latched into place in front of the muzzle device. (Yes, ATF is going to call both components suppressors, but this was developed for a military requirement, not commercial sale). Since the muzzle device fits over the barrel, it can’t be used with every rifle configuration.

Word has it this technology works very well. It’s available in 5.56, 7.62 and .338 variants. Below you can see some basic, releasable data on each of the models developed so far with different weapons.

IWTSD is a government office, which is responsible for conducting research and development in support of U.S. and allied organizations involved in Irregular Warfare. Although this includes Special Operations Forces (SOF), there is a variety of other government agencies with IW responsibilities who share mutual needs within this realm. IWTSD works with academia and industry to develop new advanced capabilities. Originally known as the Combating Terrorism Technical Support Office (CTTSO), the name was changed to IWTSD, under the Assistant Secretary of Defense Special Operations / Low Intensity Conflict (ASD SO/LIC) in 2021.

Look for more information on this line of suppressors soon.
