Salvo 12 suppressor improves shotgun situational awareness when out on the hunt<\/h1>\n

Las Vegas, Nevada<\/em> – Can you hear me now? Actually, no. Least that was my bewildered reaction after stopping by the SilencerCo Shooting Bay<\/a> at this year’s Media Day at the Range.<\/p>\n

Right out of the silver screen classic No Country for Old Men<\/em><\/a>, my most recent Amazon Wish List addition SilencerCo’s Salvo 12<\/a> removes everything audible outside of the gun’s actual action … that click, click, click of metal hitting metal. No boom boom no more.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s really nice that\u2019s going to reduce the recoil and reduce the sound,” said SilencerCo Marketing and Social Media guru Darren Jones. “You can shoot a lot long and it\u2019s more enjoyable.”<\/p>\n

Launched in October of 2014, the Salvo 12 comes as one size fits all setting. Out of the box in a default 12-inch setting, those desiring a decibel deduction can followup their initial purchase with a rod kit to change the length of rods and suppressor to a mere 6-inches.<\/p>\n

The one pictured above and below is a 10-inch version.<\/p>\n

\n“It\u2019s easier to maneuver in and out of a duck blind or pit. We make it that way so the shooter has the ability to change it for whatever shooting you’re doing. Some guys want the shortest thing possible.”<\/p>\n

But wait (he writes in his best Billy Mays voice) … there’s more!<\/p>\n

It doesn’t just suppress the sound, it also reduces the recoil. The expected kick fell from the standard mule to a standard poodle when I stepped behind the trigger. Surprising would be putting in mildly.<\/p>\n

“Most suppressors drop the recoil anywhere from 20 to 40%,” Jones explained. “On our Omega Can, that suppressor drops it 40%. I shoot one on my 300 win mag exactly for that reason because that thing can kick you pretty hard.”<\/p>\n

Born out of a duck blind, Salvo 12 “operate with nearly all shotguns and ammunition on the market today including pump actions, semi autos, and inertia driven models.” While the $1,400
\nMSRP might sound a bit shocking at first glance, the sound of silence is priceless.<\/p>\n

The long and short of it is the Salvo 12 can change your shotgun shooting life<\/a>. It drops the decibel, reduces the recoil, and takes the shakes out of your duck, goose, pheasant, or clay hunting day.<\/p>\n

“That\u2019s our base of shooting,” said Jones. “It doesn\u2019t have to be loud.”<\/p>\n
