TonyRumore 1,332 Posted May 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 I shot some 00 buck shot through it, and the sound was knocked down enough that I didn't need ear protection. It's still not real quiet though. I am going to make a few more mods to it (as time permits) and see if I can get a bit more sound reduction out of it. Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dodgeturbointerceptor 1 Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 Will test fire this beast tomorrow. OMG! Holy Shit! I got plans for 3 suppressors when I get back to the states....... Looks like its 4! I gotta see that picture one more time! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If I can get in there and beat the rush I'd love to be ordering one then so I can beat the rush! (Oh yeah, and the Democrats) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KySoldier 2 Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 If its permanently attached than its not a SBS. Just one stamp for the can. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Azrial 1,091 Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 I wonder how much the shot charge is being cooled over the temperature of the same discharge from a 18.5" barrel? Do you have a way of checking? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EustaceLufgren 0 Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 Really cool! Its a shame it is so regulated, as honestly something like that would be ideal for a home defence gun...its not going to make it inaudible like the movies portray silencers, but it would reduce it to safer levels. Obviously if you were in a home defence situation protecting your hearing is not the biggest issue, but it is a concern to some people. Sound suppressors are actually a very practical product, especially for really loud guns. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

okent 0 Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 (edited) I have been thinking of something JUST LIKE THIS. I had called earlier today and talked with Tony as to whether he had any shotguns still in stock. They have all but dried up and I haven't had any luck finding one. As a coincidence, I have been hitting all the boards to find someone who makes a shotgun suppressor! Someone gave me this link and here I am. I already ordered some of the high cap drums so I guess I need to get the gun now! Edit: I found one at Gilberts today. Ordered it! Tony that suppressor looks so cool....

okent 0 Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 Is there any new info on this thing and if Tony of Tromex reads this can you tell me if it can be permenantly attached so as to not be a SBS so I can have one in Indiana?? I got to look at this beast a couple of weeks ago. From our discussion he is going to make the tube out of aluminum so it will be lighter. I thought it was pretty light to begin with and his changes will only make it better. The design he has now screws onto the standard threads of a barrel that uses Saiga chokes, and the business end is threaded for chokes as well. I guess you could have it permenantly mounted to a barrel like any other suppressor. I think it will be just right on the end of an 8 or 10 inch barrel. I am on the list, oh yeah!

Racer 27 37 Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 It probably wouldn't look to good to the DA to use a suppressor in a home defense sit. I read an article about a guy using a full auto Ruger (a Ruger employee) to defend his girlfriend and himself. Was a good shoot but he went through 10 years of court. I'm all for the suppressor it would work excellent for shooting zombies. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rightwingnut 0 Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 I read that thread. Too bad he can't work anymore on it right now. I am excited to hear progress on it. I really like how it has the normal threads on its muzzle. That way you can put a breecher on there if you want. I guess w/ the 2" tube you can use the factory sights, right? If you made it even bigger diameter it might work even better, but then you would have to get HK sights or something to see over the can. Was that can the type that you add oil to? Did tony test it dry or w/ oil? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

c8089923 0 Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 Just checked Tromix website - didn't see suppressors for sale. Tony - is there anything we can do to help you out? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stiletto raggio 20 Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 Red Stick is making a suppressor similar to this. If I understand correctly, Tony went to the three standard models because demand is so high that he really loses money by fiddling with special projects and one-offs. A lot of the custom stuff is just too time-intensive, and when you can build three standard builds in the time it takes to build one "just right" for someone, the profit margins are totally disproportionate. I can't blame him for having business sense. He has deferred most of the recent requests for custom jobs to other builders. Funny about being the most dominant brand in the entire market segment: Tony is now too busy with more basic builds to take advantage of some of the techniques and features he innovated.

Nitrowing 0 Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 I have a Baikal .410 Hushpower and it's great! With 2 1/2" shells it's quieter than a .22 rimfire I would seriously consider a silencer for the Saiga but it would have to shroud the barrel rather than just stick further out at the front.

sudaevpps43 31 Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 .........I would seriously consider a silencer for the Saiga but it would have to shroud the barrel rather than just stick further out at the front. You mean like this..... ........ though technically since this is an integrally suppressed Saiga 12, the suppressor isn't shrouding the barrel, but rather the suppressor is the barrel.
