Thread: Maniatis Suppressors

I know the originals got some average reviews but I see in another thread they are apparently four generations in and improved now. I am particularly interested in the Alpine Lite model at 270grams and 3" muzzle forward. Im pretty damn happy with my DPT cans and it will take some convincing to make me change but the weight drop there over my magnum can is appealing.

Does anyone have experience with them and able to compare to the likes of DPT, Hardy and the older generations produced?

Watching this closely.

i rate my alpine lite as good as my dpt, its smaller and better balanced then the dpt and only a tad louder then my dpt due to smaller diameter but not loud enough to ring my ears which is the test for me built as good as anything else maybe better

bit of a small comparison vs my dpt i did afew weeks ago

Second the build quality and have two now and can’t fault them. Best service I’ve ever had suppressor was posted from ChCh to Auckland in a day.

Anyone tried the alpine lite on a short magnum? Curious how it would handle a 21” rem mag.

they are rated to 300 win mag apparently

from his facebook
"ALPINE-LITE

270gms

240mm long but less than 3inch muzzle forward

Suits calibers upto 300winmag"

"Hi I’ve done 1000 hot rnds on my 300 Winmag and there was little or no wear in the muzzle brake area
,I designed it to minimise blast directly on one surface after many many modifications and also beefed that
area up , I then made the carbon magnum and haven’t gone back to shooting it again ,but I’ve never had
one back apart from afew of my very very first test models that i give out to my test pilot friends to try and
blow up , they are very strong ,I first test with a 308 semi auto and I put 100rnds thru silencer as fast as I
can to see what the weaknesses are if any and then I modify."

Just been scrolling through his facebook page and he does say the alpine lite was primarily designed for 223 - 308 but can handle up to 300 win mag. The carbon stealth looks cool too but no real gain over my current DPT. Would love to see them in action in person.

Got one on my 20inch wsm, been good as, don’t think it’s the alpine lite though, that’s a pretty small can and I’d say noise reduction on a big cal wouldn’t be that good

Have ordered an Alpine Lite for my 260, will report back sometime after its been put to use

Pretty keen to hear a report (rolling my own eyes at that one). I really like the dimensions, so it works well it could be perfect.

tbh maniatis sounds like an std you'd get from excessive masturbation.
