What are the key features of the KelTec CQB Sub's suppressor?

The integral suppressor on the CQB Sub uses a combination of steel baffles in the initial blast chamber and aluminum baffles for the rest of its length. This design contributes to its overall effectiveness and is part of a single NFA tax stamp item.

A unique camming system on the barrel assembly of the CQB Sub allows it to fold even with optics attached. This is achieved by rotating the barrel out of cam, enabling the carbine to collapse for easier storage and transport.
