Les, Not sure. Think it’s a guy’s personal product. At $200, seems a good deal. unlike other 22LR suppressors, this one can be disassembled for cleaning and that’s pretty big. From the video, it was as loud as a red ryder bb gun. Not sure what suppression level it gets, though.
If you checked out the video of the girl firing the pistol, it seemed pretty quiet. Isuspect that she was using subsonic ammo and he wasn’t. I know that if I use subsonic rounds in my AM suppressed Savage .22, the loudest sound you hear is the paper target tearing at 50 feet.

swell. Then I just have to cough up the extra $200 for the tax stamp and then go to Oregon or Idaho every time I want to use it.
Suppressors should be completely deregulated, period.

Unc, is Checkmate a good brand?

I thought that there were a bunch of manufacturers making take-apart 22LR cans on silencerforums for around 200 bucks.
