BENEFITS OF SUPPRESSORS
Hearing Protection
Suppressors reduce the noise of a gunshot by an average of 20 – 35 dB, which is roughly the same as earplugs or earmuffs.
Safer Hunting
Exposure to even a single unsuppressed gunshot can, and often does, lead to permanent hearing damage.
Noise Complaints
Although it can still be heard, suppressed gunfire helps mitigate noise complaints from those who live near shooting ranges and hunting land.
Accuracy
Suppressors reduce recoil and help decrease muzzle flinch. These benefits lead to improved accuracy, better shot placement, and more humane hunts.
