iteachsurfing 50 Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Has anyone ever though of a suppressor for the .410? I just thought it would seem pretty easy to do. (except for the Tax Stamp) Mabey even use an existing pistol caliber suppressor & adapter for the threading that's on the .410 I bet it would work great with 000 & slugs! Any thoughts?

BobAsh 582 Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 A shotgun supressor is different internally than one made for bullets. That being said, it's easy to make one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VanKiller 322 Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 (edited) Now let's not make it sound too easy to make a shotgun suppressor. Well OK the suppressor is easy, making one that doesn't fill up with 2 pounds of crap after a couple boxes, and has decent reduction, that's the hard part.

iteachsurfing 50 Posted January 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Now let's not make it sound too easy to make a shotgun suppressor. Well OK the suppressor is easy, making one that doesn't fill up with 2 pounds of crap after a couple boxes, and has decent reduction, that's the hard part. Not hard to design for the right team. Not hard to produce with a lathe and a mill. Would this be something you could legally build & put on a shotgun by paying the ATF Tax? Would the sound suppression be enough to use with out hearing protection? I have land in an area that's legal & safe for shotguns. However, my neighbor is a vet that's sensitive to loud shotgun and large caliber blast. I would love to make everyone happy and still have fun with my Gun. Thank you for your input JJ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BobAsh 582 Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Would this be something you could legally build & put on a shotgun by paying the ATF Tax? Yes, just the same as any suppressor. Would the sound suppression be enough to use with out hearing protection? Yes, the one pictured above is mounted on an 8" Saiga, and you can shoot it without protection- remember, shorties are MUCH louder than full-length guns. It would be pretty damn long on an 18" gun, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I plan on SBSing my 410 this year and a suppressor would be pretty damn cool for it, or can I just use one for a .45? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BobAsh 582 Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 There's no .410 suppressor in the works. The market is too small. The 12g suppressor is being tooled and will be out "soon". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chris410 0 Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 Hypothetically though, would one for a 45 acp work? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hey, Bob. I'm interested in getting one of these for my S12 when it becomes available. Just wondering, would it screw right on using the factory threads or would the barrel need to have more threads added because of the length and weight of the suppressor? Thanks.

BobAsh 582 Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 kyhelo, it will screw to the factory threads. On a full- length gun it is gonna be LONG, we really intended it for a shorty. Check out this THREAD with pics and range reviews. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BobAsh 582 Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Of course, it would be pretty quiet on a long gun... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joe Blasco 1 Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Bob, hi from rainy Ukraine. Ok pls clarify something to me. What do you mean exactly in different? I take it for the supressor has to work only with slugs, or you mean it can work with shot also? For slugs I can't imagine any great difference in the internals plus the velocity is lower than a bullet. I've never seen any patent about a specifically designed shotgun supressor can you point to a plan or something? Joe A shotgun supressor is different internally than one made for bullets.

A suppressor made only for bullets (or slugs) would fill up with wadding and shot in no time. We don't have a patent, it's a simple design. Also, the Tromix suppressor will take factory-threaded chokes and muzzle devices (like the Shark Brake). Edited March 3, 2008 by BobAsh Quote Link to post Share on other sites
