Suppressor Thread

Anything suppressor related. Recommendations, theory, legal questions, image dump, whatever you want.

I really like the simple construction of the VSS one, it's basically a straight line of stamped metal, how effective would that be?

Also integrated suppressors are sexy.

Fug, excuse me for double picture, i intended to post this one.

So, how does spacing of the baffles and their amount relative to the amount of baffles impact its performance? Rifle rounds tend to have more volume and less baffles compared to pistols and vice versa, why is that? Could larger volume be better at dropping the pressure compared to what, cooling from baffles slowing the gas down? Could it be that there is more volume in the front in rifle cans to drop the pressure to reduce the wear and if it wasn't be a problem then could more baffles improve it?

What is the actual serialized part of a suppressor? Can I get a tax stamp, register a 2" diameter tube with a serial number stamped on it, and then just swap out baffles and thread adapters to suit whatever purpose? Or will that get me V&?

I got a neat little mill, a 3d printer, and a I am going to be purchasing the rest of the stuff I need to make funs. Can I make a suppressor with a mill? Or do I need a lathe? Because I have a shitty broke mini lathe and need to know if o should just purchase the full sized one.

The registered part is whatever mates to the threading of the barrel. Look up SilencerCo's 'oil filter' suppressors. You buy one threaded adaptor and then you can replace the can infinite times after it wears out. Really, all suppressors ought to be designed this way, or at least designed to be disassembled so the owner can replace worn baffles, wipes, screens, mesh, etc… the fact that so many single-piece suppressors exist on the market that are welded the fuck together is an insult to the consumer.

was there a baffle strike on one of the short ones?

Check out monocore designs, they'd be easier to make. Or, if you want a 22lr one, just 3d print the whole thing, there are plenty of files, even single piece no support ones.


No, they leak the gasses out through the hole near the base. That way they use the space that would otherwise be contained by the K baffles.


Can someone say how do monocore designs like picrel compare to M or K type baffles? I'm really interested in slanted suppressor designs because of how simple they are and these seem to be the closest their representation.

Also here's the hero.

Car suspension is where it's at.
Hell some of them already have the proper threading.

MODS!!!

How limited are current suppressors by manufacturing methods?
How are technologies like additive manufacturing going to change suppressors?
