I think my first post was creating interest. By saying "hey look at this cool and different stuff that isn't yet another dairy farmer making yet another footlong 400-600gm overbarrel of questionable quality in his shed"

I agree with gimp. The Europeans are doing some very interesting stuff with suppressors. Using CAD designs and CNC to manufacture innovative products instead of the kiwi industrial garden shed style suppressors we have. The Kiwi made ones work well but are an old designs. The euros are using modern technologies to make improved designs that are lighter smaller and function just as well.

Do you need any sort of permit to import one of these into NZ?

No.

Surely someone in NZ is actually testing their stuff with a decibel meter and doing some R&D? FFS we split the atom!

Actually , in NZ we have different cans , due to MOST being used for hunting & the requirement of low weight over riding everything else .

Most Euro cans are made for Assualt rifles or sniper rifles, and are quite different because of this , ie steel & or SS , this makes a heavier can than the mainly Aluminium cans .
