Wanting to purchase a .22 supressor

[Quas]

What's a good one for a good price?

for a dedicated .22lr suppressor, I'd recommend a user serviceable one, (I.E. one that can be taken apart and cleaned) due to all the crud that .22lr leaves behind, and since the bullets are usually just copper washed/plated, rather than a copper jacket like a centerfire round. If you get one that does not have any aluminum in its construction, you can soak it in the various homebrew solutions that can be found on the net to dissolve most of the crud.

Can you name any mfg./post links? Fair price?

I have the Spectre from SWR coming in. All stainless, completely comes apart for cleaning, full auto rated, also rated for 22 mag, 17hmr, 5.7mm. It's one of the priciest .22 cans but it covers more bases.

Aroundlsu stated that someone local had some for $200. Check with him on the brand.

Good Luck.

My Gemtech Outback II is at Will's waiting on my stamp to come in. We've shot it there a few times & it works well, but it can't be disassembled. It was in the $300 range.

Good luck!

Belso in Lafayette had some in stock around $250. Will at Red Jacket sometimes has them in stock. Also try Landry's Guns in Livonia.

All these places have websites just ask Google.

Most places stock Yankee Hill Machine silencers (YHM). They are OK but are the cheaper entry level silecers. The Gemtechs and AAC silencers are the higher end companies but normally have waiting times to get one in.

I've been shooting .22LR through my .223 can with great results although everyone thinks I'm crazy for doing it.

I have one of Wills. It comes apart but I just spray it out with brake cleaner every so often. It was under 400

that's exactly what i plan to do sometime next year. i'm no baller, so mine probobly won't cost as much as yours though.

I have been impressed with the TAC 65 (It's able to be disasembled which is one of my wants) I'm thinking about one of the SS versions of the TAC 65 (I forget the name)

Is Wills a .22 can? what baffles?

So, the next question is, how do you get one legally in LA?

 

[aroundlsu]

See the sticky I wrote in this section "How to Buy a Silencer in Baton Rouge". 99% will apply elsewhere in the state.

the YHM mite is doing really well, particularly on short barreled pistols such as the P22.

shooting .22 through a .223 can will work..but if you do it a lot, you will gunk up your .223 can, and not only will it reduce the effectiveness of the can, it can actually lead to major problems down the road from all that gunk heating up under the .223 fire and breaking loose and whatnot.

YMMV.
