Your rep. is not correct. I am in fact building over a 1000 SOCOM suppressors in differnt models right now and should have them all completed by the end of the month. Orders for distributors are all ready in the system and dealers will be next. I also dropped the price on every new SOCOM model as well. Can't beat having better suppressor with new technology that was adopted by SOCOM with a better price.

A lot of them are SOCOM556-MINI and SOCOM762-MINI. Building M3's order now. Since I have been getting a lot of pricing requests I will just put it out. Dealers are getting the price sheets soon.
This is MSRP. SOCOM556-MINI $1299 SOCOM556-MINI MONSTER $1349 SOCOM556-RC (suppressor for the SOCOM contract) $1375 SOCOM556-MONSTER $1425 SOCOM556-SB (for barrels -10") $1399 SOCOM556-MG $1699 SOCOM762-RC (suppressor for the SOCOM contract) $1799 SOCOM762-MINI $1399 SOCOM762-MG $$1875 SOCOM-68 $1425 |

I just got the email a few hours ago with a corrected delivery estimate of October to dealers. |

Other than the new mounting attachment, is there a significant differnce between the 762 mini released last year and this new one?

The SOCOM556-SB has the same features as the SOCOM556-RC with the vented blast baffle and new blast shield in the back section for longer service life and all the new gas flow dynamics but we opened up the bore for the possibility of a unstable bullet from barrels shorter then 10". On a 10" you could go with either the RC or SB.

Monsters have little "teeth" on the front. For striking things w/o shooting I think. I hope it is for some other purpose as it is kinda stupid if you ask me, but it is what it is. Striking things with your muzzle really just says "fuck it" about safety discipline. |

Muzzle tapping someone for compliance rather than shooting them can be useful. It's not something you do often but it does happen. Another, even more useful use, is using it to break glass.

That is correct for the MINI MOSTER and MONSTER. A special group in the military requested teeth on the suppressor as they do practice muzzle strikes as a non-lethal tactical when doing certain types of insertions in very small space. They go in weapons up and ready and it gives them time to move personal and assess if the people they are encountering are combatants or armed. We understand it is not for everyone’s needs.

I cant watch the video (blocked on NIPR) and it's tough filtering out the facts from GreenO's pussy-whining. A couple of questions Kudu:
I've got a 556k and a 762k paid for and waiting on the ATF. Do I need to stock up on mounts? I am concerned about endeding up with a few thousand dollars worth of orphanware supressors. Will the K series continue to be made? I would like at least another 556, probably one of each since I have already bought 6 mounts and might need to buy more. Thank you. |

Garin,
Do you have an estimate of when the MBs will be shipping for the new cans? I have a lot of pinning and welding to do.  |

sigh,
My 212 is being transferred to my dealer right now. Looks like these will be less money too. Maybe they will sell for MSRP for a while, at least that way I wont want to jump off a bridge. I paid well under MSRP for my 212 I cant stand the idea of getting one of the last batch of suppressors before a new and improved model comes out... that actually costs less....... |

Ok I think I can get all the answers in.
Yes we are going to continue to make the current suppressors and popular adapters. We still have certain contracts on them. New MB's are being built right now in 1/2-28 and 5/8-24 up next. Pinning and welding is easy on the adapters. We put pilot holes at the back collar that you can drill and pin. Flash hiders are a new patent pending 3 prong that doesn't have that pronounced ringing and barely...barley hear it when suppressor is on. |

Cool thanks for clearing that up. Is the weight of the SOCOM556-MINI the same as the old MINI? |
