Thread: Hight Value(cheap) Suppressors

Who makes or sells a cheaper centrefire suppressor?
I know they are commonly available for 300 ish and I'm sure they are great and really well made. But there must be some out there that are no frills and basic. I mean if you look at them, there isn't really much to them.

DPT best value
ODL best available

Is there such a thing as cheap and well made? Think of it like this, you only have to buy one, that's it. Hardys or Gunworks.

huh?

Gunworks cans are terrible and HRE's might blow your face off but will be quieter than the GW one up till that point.

Nothing wrong with my Gunworks Maximus, cant rate it highly enough. Like all things though different opinions will vary.

DPT for sure. Awesome unit

The DPT are barrel forward and the same price as a Spartan, if that's the price I have to pay I'd go with Rob at gun works. Though I wonder if I got one for 7mm how well it would work with 223 as well

It will probably work fine. If you go DPT you could always buy a 223 baffle stack and interchange them.

And to add, I have had both dpt and gunworks, I like the dpt better, its much lighter and I prefer the shorter profile, although I believe Robbie has added shorter supps to his product list

If you want to swap out the internals I asked, its pretty close to the price of a new one, $225 v $300. I too wonder how much loss in performance you would get to have a .30 caliber silencer with 223 passing through it. 50% loss? not good 10%? who cares....

The 7mm DPT on my 223 is as quiet as the 223 suppressors I have here.

My 308 suppressor (DPT) practically lives on my 223, I was going to buy one for the as well 223 but tried this first. It seems to sound the same as a 223 suppressor I borrowed from a friend to do a comparison. So now I have a "1 size fits all" approach
