Videos tagged with Monocore Suppressor

This video tests the effectiveness of suppressor foam on an Inland Manufacturing IM 9 monocore suppressor. The presenter found that while the foam initially provides a significant sound reduction, it degrades very quickly during rapid fire, making it a temporary novelty rather than a lasting solution. The test highlights the foam's short-lived impact on suppressor performance.

This guide details the basic principles of servicing a monocore suppressor, emphasizing its ease of maintenance compared to other designs. The video, presented by a professional from Shark Coast Tactical, highlights the monocore as an evolution from stacked baffle designs and a precursor to 3D-printed suppressors. Proper cleaning and disassembly are key to maintaining its functionality.

This review covers the Liberty Suppressors Agent 5.56 silencer, highlighting its lightweight titanium construction, monocore baffle stack, and inconel blast chamber. It offers significant sound reduction, is full-auto rated, and features a serviceable design with a unique spanner wrench tool for disassembly. The silencer is compatible with the HUB mounting system and is available in various configurations.

This video provides an in-depth review of the Maxim Defense PDX-SD, a 5.5-inch suppressed 5.56 NATO PDW. Micah Mayfield, an established subject matter expert, details its technical specifications, internal mechanics, and compares its terminal ballistics to pistol caliber carbines. The review highlights the engineering required for reliable 5.56 cycling in such a short barrel and discusses its suitability for home defense or truck gun roles.

Colion Noir and David Larson of Maxim Defense discuss the PDX SD, a compact suppressed rifle. Key features include its short 23.75-inch collapsed length, modular monocore suppressor, and hearing-safe rating of 134 dB, making it suitable for roles like a truck gun or for School Resource Officers. The discussion highlights the rifle's technical specifications and practical applications.

This guide details the process of building a custom integrally suppressed .45 ACP rifle inspired by the WWII De Lisle carbine. It leverages a Mauser-style VZ 24 receiver and involves significant modification, including barrel shortening and the integration of a Form 1 suppressor. The build emphasizes NFA compliance through pinning and welding to achieve legal barrel length, alongside the use of 3D-printed components for custom mounts. This project requires advanced gunsmithing skills and a thorough understanding of firearm regulations.

The VSO Gun Channel reviews several firearms and accessories seen at a trade show. Highlights include Stern Defense's binary component QD mounts for HoloSun optics, a bolt-on digital unit that converts standard optics to IR night vision or thermal, SDS Imports' bullpup semi-automatic shotgun with reduced recoil, and the Zastava Poly Wonder pistol that accepts SIG P226 magazines. The channel also discusses Armor Specialties' unique monocore suppressor design and Mean Arms' bearing delayed blowback system, showcasing its recoil reduction capabilities in 9mm and future plans for 5.56 and .300 Blackout versions.

The Q Lefty is a 5.56mm silencer designed to address issues with suppressed firearms, particularly the HK 416. It focuses on reducing back pressure and gas blowback, which is crucial for maintaining manageable cyclic rates and operator comfort, especially for left-handed shooters. The design utilizes a larger bore aperture and forward-venting gas to push sound forward, making it quieter to the shooter's ear while also reducing the overall sound signature.

This guide details the process of testing a firearm suppressor in both 'wet' (with liquid) and 'dry' (without liquid) states, as demonstrated by Hickok45. It covers establishing a baseline, preparing the suppressor by adding water, and observing the sound reduction differences. The effectiveness of shooting a suppressor wet can vary significantly based on its internal design, particularly monocore suppressors like the Thompson Machine ISIS-2.
