best sound suppressor

[QuadCam]

How does the tax stamp work for suppressors? Is it registered to a specific rifle our can you use the suppressor on multiple guns? With that in mind, is there a suppressor on the market that will work with both 22lr an .223 calibers?

A can isn't registered to a specific firearm. I use mine on multiple rifles and pistol. (are the pics not showing again in the above postings?) Yes, a .223 can works great, even better, on a .22 than a rimfire can. Problem is that it weighs a lot more. Example: YHM Mite weighs 3oz. YHM Phantom for a .223 weighs 20oz. Some buy a 308 can and use it for 223.

Regarding Replacing Parts sorry but you as an individual May Not replace the internal parts of a TAC-65. You May send it back to the manufacturer or to a SOT2 who can legally Repair said suppressor. Interestingly enough the BATFE considers each Baffel to be a Suppressor in itself. So to possess an extra baffel would constitute having a unregistered NFA Item.

As far as taking a .22 suppressor apart to clean it really isn't nessary and soaking the suppressor a mixture of Kroil and Automatic Transmission Fluid works just fine. Also .22 Cans tend to get Quieter with use so a little build up is quite acceptable.

I have an original Gemtech Outback that has maybe upwards of 10.000 Rds. through it most of which were from a Select Fire Ruger 10/22 and it is quieter than many new High End .22 suppressors.

I didn't say I want to keep spair parts on hand. It's the difference in being able to have a small part replaced or buying a whole new can. And yes, soaking parts may break down fouling but I want to know with my eyes it isn't gumming up too bad. From my limited experience some .22's can cause excessive leading in the baffles compared to others. Wouldn't being able to break the can down be nice to check once in a while? And lastly, yes, some fouling can help, but at what point does that build up start to work against you? I try not to over explain, so I was gulty of trying to share an opinion while not blathering on. Sorry.

I was concerned about that because the Wraith does not come apart. I just use my wife's kitchen scale. The Wraith weighed just 5oz when I got it. I've put a couple thousand rounds through it and it weighs 5oz now. So whatever there might be in there that I can't see doesn't weigh anything... so it can't be lead.

Hello Gentlemen. Having just made a trade with Kenny at C.G.I.
( Coastal Guns Inc.) I will be joining the ranks of the suppressed in a couple of months.

Coastal seems like a great company, and Kenny is a member here.

I am convinced now to buy a threaded 15-22 as my 22 rifle.

Has anyone considered having their barrel modified with a
welded on cage to house the suppressor?
Tactical solutions makes a barrel for the 10-22 that keeps the overall
length at 16" .
Maybe they could do the modification.
