This video provides an in-depth look at B&T's new RBS 9 line of suppressors, highlighting their Reduced Back Pressure (RBS) technology. It details the available compact and full-size models, three distinct mounting systems (Direct Thread, RQD tri-lug, and the innovative SQD push-button tri-lug), and the hybrid baffle design aimed at reducing gas blowback and firearm wear. The discussion also touches on material construction and specific firearm compatibility, particularly for the SPC9 PDW.

Quick Summary

B&T's RBS (Reduced Back Pressure) suppressors are engineered to minimize gas blowback into the shooter's face and reduce wear on firearms. They feature a hybrid baffle design with external 'flow-by' chambers and come with mounting options like Direct Thread, RQD (standard tri-lug), and the innovative SQD (push-button tri-lug) for quick attachment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is B&T's RBS suppressor technology?

B&T's RBS (Reduced Back Pressure) technology is designed to minimize gas blowback into the shooter's face and reduce wear on the firearm. It achieves this through a hybrid baffle design that combines traditional baffles with external 'flow-by' chambers, allowing excess gas to escape without significantly increasing sound or affecting cyclic rate.

What are the mounting options for B&T RBS 9 suppressors?

B&T RBS 9 suppressors offer three primary mounting options: Direct Thread (e.g., 1/2x28), RQD (Rapid Quick Disconnect), which is a standard tri-lug mount, and SQD (Super Quick Disconnect). The SQD is a push-button tri-lug system for extremely fast attachment and detachment.

How does the SQD mount differ from traditional tri-lug mounts?

The SQD (Super Quick Disconnect) mount on B&T suppressors is a push-button system. Unlike traditional tri-lug mounts that require pushing down and rotating to engage the lugs, the SQD simply pushes on and locks, with a button release for detachment, making it faster and more user-friendly.

What materials are B&T RBS 9 suppressors made from?

B&T RBS 9 suppressors typically use Inconel for the blast chamber and blast baffles due to its superior heat and corrosion resistance. Subsequent baffles are often made from aluminum to help reduce the overall weight of the suppressor.
