NEW!: Titanium Shadow TI,
same dimensions, but 14
ounces, 5/8"-24 thread mount only, Stainless steel blast baffle to
prevent sparking.
The Professionals Choice.
Whether your mission is hiding your muzzle signature
from
bad guys in far off lands, or stalking dangerous paper targets at
home without the need for hearing protection, the SHADOWseries will
meet your
requirements.
SHADOW is 8.0" long and 1.5" OD .30
It is 9/16"-24 or 5/8"-24 Thread mounted, 1.5" OD
and 8" long, and delivers 28-34 db suppression levels with
full power ammo and up to 36 db with subsonic ammo,
depending
on ammunition and rifle barrel length. Weight is
27
ounces with the thread mount.
Very pleasing to shoot as no hearing protection is required with .308 ammunition. Designed for optimum accuracy, these is a superb tactical suppressor designed for professional use where accuracy, and flash suppression, is paramount.
Full power .308 ammunition meters in the 132-136 db
range,
which is below the 140 db thresh hold where hearing protection is
required.
Engel Ballistic Research Subsonic PBS or Thumper 7.62 x 51 ammo meters
at 122 db; and there is no adverse effect on accuracy; in fact, many
rifle
shoot tighter groups with this suppressor than without it. Sub
MOA
groups are typical, even past 300 yards.
We recently shot a 5 shot, 1 hole (.35") group at 100
yards, using match ammo, from a rifle with the SHADOW suppressor
installed.
SHADOW
LM .338 Lapua
Magnum capable
suppressor
that is 10.5" long, and weighs 41 ounces. Materials of construction are
304, 316 stainless steel, and Inconel, and provides 35+ db of
suppression
(absolute db is
below 140 db on a 26" barrel rifle).
Recent independent testing using the B&K
2209 sound meter yielded 138 db absolute 1 meter to the left of the
muzzle and 135 db 15 cm from the shooters ear. Outside diameter is 1.6"
at the rear of the suppressor and 1.5" at the muzzle. Standard thread
sizes available are 5/8"-18, 5/8"-20, 5/8"-24, 11/16"-24 and 18X1
metric. 11/16" and 18mm thread are slightly extra cost.
Titanium
SHADOW LM. 10.5" long, 1.5"
OD, and either 17 ounces with a Ti 5/8"-24 rear cap, or 19 ounces with
stainless rear cap for other thread requirements.
The suppressors use the new
patented SRT
AZTECH
baffle system, which has been claimed by Al Paulson,
suppressor
technical
writer, as "one of the most innovative baffle designs since the Maxim
model
1909 baffle". The baffle is extremely strong, lightweight, and provides
superior efficiency in sound suppression.
Additionally, First Round Pop, the propensity of a
suppressor
to have a much louder first round sound signature, is almost
non-existent
with the SHADOW.
The suppressor may also be used with .30-06, and
limited use with
.300
Winchester Magnum on rifles with 24" or longer barrels.
