This is most of them. There are some others in the cupboard but these will do for now
Not the best pics in the world as it's dark here and the flash isn't up to much The rifle is my .22, built by me with UDE furniture from Larue ![]() I picked up 10 of these small A-Tec suppressors today, I'll tell you how much they cost in a minute...and then you can cry ![]() ![]() They're made by A-Tec in Norway but I had these specially made with a 1/2" x28 UNEF thread to fit the .22lr AR's that I built. They're a little over 5" long and 1 1/8" dia. As you can see they're also a modular design. They come in 5 sections but sections can be added or removed to suit ![]() Initial testing was pleasing as they appear to be somewhat quieter than the other .22 cans in the first pic, the Sak ones. These are the industry standard over here. The other suppressors in the first pic BTW are 2 Ase Utra CQB QM with AR15 flash hider adapters and a BR Tuote reflex. Now the cost, retail price for the A-Tec .22 suppressors is £60 ($96) The Sak's cost £30 |

Don't care much easier to own gun's here. And aren't you guy's working on banning pint glass's now? Right after you finish banning pointed knife's? Sure you can get a can over there cheap. Pretty soon though you'll be screwing it on a water pistol.

If the tax was removed, both on the manufacturers side and on the consumers side, ($200.00 each for $400.00 total) the prices would be comparable to the cost in the US. That being said, I don't see the taxes going away.
What does a liter of petrol cost there anyways? edited to add, nice collection |
