Supressor for 10/22

[valley]

Is there a supressor for a 10/22? Have you seen or used one?

About any gun can have a suppressor added, they thread the end of the barrel and usually also include a cap to put on to protect the threads when the suppressor is off. I'm sure you know there is a $200.00 stamp you have to apply for to legally own one in the US. The paperwork is somewhat like when you fill out for the background check for a concealed carry.

A company near us makes suppressors for about anything you wish to put one on. A friend has one for his 10/22 that can also be switched over to a variety of his 22 pistols. Same thread on each barrel and with subsonic ammo all you hear is either the action cycle on the semi-auto or the bullet hitting the mud from his 22 contender.

I think the suppressors are under the tactical tab.

I'd also price a yankee hill. If you also have a .223 cal. rifle, I'd
get it for a .223 (higher pressure build) so you can use it on a few of your rifles. Why limit yourself to just .22

IMHO.. the form 4 xfer is even more rigorous than the CCW paperwork...

Use the CCI CB Shorts. All you hear is the click and then what ever it hits.

[valley]

Do they quiet 22LR enough that you don't have to use hearing protection?

The CB shorts: won't they shave lead and cause damage in a 22LR?

[Soundguy]

I know you can fire 9mmSS with no hearing protection... only thing you hear is the bolt action and a tinkle when the brass hits the ground...

IMHO you don't need hearing protection to shoot 22LR from a 10/22. A 22 pistol, yes indeed.

The action of a 10/22 semi auto will fail to function properly unless you use the specified 22LR ammo. Meaning that you can shoot one at a time if you hand load the chamber through the port.

I'm QUITE sure that a supressed .22lr semi-auto pistol could be shot with no hearing protection... my 9mm has a short barrell and fires from an open bolt.. loud sucker.. louder than any 22 I've ever heard.. and it is reduced to simple bolt noise with a supressor. i have a buddy with a 45.. same thing.. thup.. thup.. thup.. sounds like flicking your finger at some cardboard..

If going suppressed, you should use sub sonic ammo; no use suppressing if the supersonic "crack" is still gonna happen.

The rifle should not cycle; the sound of the action operating defeats suppressing too.

Besides, isn't illegal?
