Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Strategic Sciences MFMD suppressor unique?

The MFMD's unique design focuses on maintaining gas speed as it exits the muzzle, reducing fouling and extending service life. Unlike porous suppressors, it uses direct airflow, allowing for 20,000-30,000 rounds before servicing, and offers significant flash and sound reduction.

How does the MFMD affect bolt carrier speed?

The MFMD is engineered to have minimal impact on bolt carrier speed, claiming a variance of only +/- 2%. This low back pressure ensures reliable firearm function and reduces wear, making it comparable to or better than many traditional suppressors.

What are the main benefits of the Strategic Sciences MFMD?

Key benefits include exceptional flash suppression (up to 99%), hearing-safe sound reduction (under 140 dB), and extremely low bolt carrier speed increase. Its design also allows for recessing over the barrel, optimizing weapon length and balance.

What are the drawbacks of the MFMD suppressor?

The primary drawbacks are significant mirage generation and rapid heating due to its Inconel construction and internal airflow. While it cools effectively due to its surface area, it gets hot quickly, which can be a consideration for certain shooting applications.

How does the MFMD compare to other suppressors in terms of performance?

In testing, the MFMD with its SDX attachment demonstrated superior sound and flash suppression compared to the Hux Blackmagic suppressor. Its bolt carrier speed remained very close to unsuppressed fire, a notable advantage over traditional designs.
