    Recommendations for good economic 22LR suppressor

    Looking for a 1/2x20 can for my 22lr cz455. Want reasonably economical, light, with good suppression. Only shoot subs through it currently and like it to be as quiet as possible. The below is looking pretty good to me, any reviews/opinions?

    I've owned one and sold it on this forum. It worked well. Go ahead and buy it.

    DPT $150 From local Gunsmith.
    I'm happy to buy one down here in Wgtn and post it to you so you don't get ripped in your local big green store.

    VTP do an adaptor you can screw a drink bottle to. It works and your mates will laugh for days
    I'd like to verify your clam.

    Yes it's good.
    I can't tell a difference (noise level) between this can
    and expensive can.

    Whatever you get make sure it is something that can be disassembled and cleaned!

    I like the Braveheart ($160 at GC). I bought it specifically because it is 170g (100g more than the DPT), and it balances my EM-332 just right.

    No mention of the cheapy screw-on ones that start at about 60 bucks? They work just fine for a .22 and dont add weight or length

    DPT, well worth the money. And yes you will notice the difference.

    Agreed, I've been using one like this for over 25 years, never missed a beat, can be cleaned (but rarely is) and is as quiet as anything else I have been around.

    Do you know anyone with a 3D printer ?
    This is one I had printed for me, I modelled it the same as a 14.5mm cartridge and just increased the neck dia to 15mm so it'll match the muzzle of my rifle. It works very well and is quieter than the aluminium/carbon fibre ones that I've made in the past. It only used $2-3 of material and this design is a bit fragile but its easy to make cheap and replaceable surpressors.
