Thread: Good lightweight suppressors?

@Bill999 12 baffels? how long is it like a foot? Must look impressive!

I run an ODL can too was going to use it for a subsonic 300blackout...did you find that the ODL did not suppress 300blk as well?

Yea it's about a foot long

The Oceania defence gets a real first round pop with the barrel I have, second shot on its superb (with sub-x)
I only ever use one shot so it pissed me off enough to go big on a Dpt
First round pop is still there but far less and I also wanted to test what was possible suppresson wise so just kept robbing my other Dpt suppressors for extra baffles and I ended up liking how the gun handles with the extra muzzle weight so kept them on
I really want to do a co2 system that dribbles in the muzzle to get the awesome second round onwards performance for that first shot
Not too many co2 bike inflators for sale in my town tho so that's a work in progress finding the right slow feed tap

A Hobbit's foot long lol

What issue was the NZ Hunter review in?

Heys Guys I’m 4 Generations ahead since that review,my latest silencers are lighter and stronger ,less muzzle forward and my new Carbon ones as quiet, if not quieter than anything in the world now

Got my alpine lite back from Greg Maniatis on Wednesday and shot it this weekend very very happy with the build quality and suppression(compared to my 308 dpt) and price and service, $450 fitted that's threading included

Yeah by 1 gram BUT its .308 the other is 243 so if it was same caliber it wouldn't be and my first blast baffle is showing ware already after 50 rounds, if i replace the first blast baffle with SS its 40grams heavier then another aluminum one.
The maniatis one is different design obviously and dont have to worry about wearing out baffles

Look at Dean Maiseys take on the suppressor test done In Rod and Rifle.
Also Maniatis suppressors are as good if not better than any opposition have
Hardy,DPT and ASE and they have same recoil, noise and are lighter.

@ariki where do I find his comments about it ?

I have seen comments on the forum that the test was actually done at Hardy - which R&R neglected to mention in their published test.

It’s on Dean Maiseys suppressor page. I always thought the results looked a bit lop sided towards Hardy. As all suppressors in NZ are very similar in design.

Yea iv used a few and prefer the dpt they make one that's further muzzle back to have one going on my saum will upload weight when it arrives

Yeah i think it the magnum model
