Why choose a

custom made suppressor?

 

We all know that individual rifles prefer and perform better with specific ammunition. In much the same way, the suppressor you choose must be made and tuned for your specific rifle to reach optimal efficiency. So if you If you want to buy a cheap mass produced silencer, that's your business. If you want to buy a custom hand made suppressor of the highest quality - then that's my business.

Center-Fire Suppressors

 

TAMING YOUR BARK, but not your bite!

Customer feedback: Awsum machine work. Has made my .243 sound like a .22 pea-shooter! Much more accurate now and recoil has almost completely gone. WOW - thanks Roger!

Latest feedback:  Hi Rog,   Just got back home today and put the gun back together (.223 Savage Stevens).  Over-barrel suppressor works like a dream! Just took a goat down and the others had no idea where the shot came from. Some of them even ran towards me they were so confused.  Thank for the work, very impressed.   Thanks Robbie

Hello. Welcome to New Zealand, and to my website.

Right: Recent AR15 project for a customer. Click photo to enter project page.

 Although having been a professional engineer since 1983, I have been an ordained Baptist minister since completing a degree in theology in 2000, and suppressor engineering is now a part-time hobby. 

 To be honest, I never intended on making custom suppressors to sell. I just didn’t like the boring look-alike suppressors on the shelves of hunting shops, so I started making my own – for my own rifles (Rim-fire, Center-fire, PCP, CO2 & Springer).

People immediately asked me to make one for them, and it just hasn’t stopped since then, having now made over 1,000 custom suppressor projects.  

 I am a passionate rifle and pistol collector, shooter, hunter and engineer.  

 

 

My motivation to make custom suppressors has never been to make money (unlike most – if not all other brand suppressor manufacturers).

 

I just keep making them because people keep asking me to – and because I enjoy the challenge, skill and reward of sharing this passion with fellow shooters and hunters.

 

 So, take a break – make yourself a cuppa, enjoy my website – and I look forward to receiving your inquiry so that together we can design a custom suppressor suited to your personality, rifle, caliber and desired results.

 

Left: An example of my special effect anodizing results. I call this effect Nebulas (Google image it )  Click photo to enlarge, and then a zoom feature is also available. Suppressor is a customer’s .223 over-barrel, effect located nearest to rifle stock.

 

 Right: One of my own rifle kits, a Rossi single-shop combo with rim-fire and center-fire interchangeable barrels.  To read of my first hunt/shoot with this excellent rifle, enter the key words ‘Rossi’ into the site search engine top right.

  Video below: Testing a customer’s 30-06 (.270) over-barrel suppressor  – comparing it suppressed and unsuppressed – with an unexpected result!  



 Right: Philip sent me his score sheet, showing grouping unsuppressed and then his suppressed  Tikka 7mm-08.

Accuracy is increased due to my suppressors obtaining up to 85% recoil and muzzle-lift reduction, as well as up to 90% noise reduction – depending on rifle caliber, i.e. 95% noise reduction on rim-fire, 50% noise reduction on .223, 40% noise reduction on .243 and approximately 35% noise reduction on 30-06 / .270 / 7mm-08.  (Note these specs will vary in accordance with the specs we calculate for your custom project.)

Left: Just one of my latest custom graphix – permanently fused into your suppressor body.

Right: You-Choose Custom Suppressor options. Note: Sideways venting muzzle-brake is not recommend within my center-fire caliber suppressors, as it counteracts the purpose of the suppressor and noise reduction, and are designed to enhance accuracy within rim-fire silencers only.

Video Below: I had a bit of fun designing and making this center-fire suppressor with Matrix suppression system. Yes, the spikes really are sharp!  My skills are seen in the beautiful and hard-wearing finish of this suppressor – being fade-anodized – with literally the glide of Teflon and the strength of Sapphire.

Video: A customer bought this really nice Norinco, and asked that I make him an equally nice end-mounted suppressor. Specs:  34mm diameter. 250mm length. Hand-grip portion. Sealed unit. 20 internal suppression ports. Threaded 1/2′ unf x 20 tpi. Tapered towards barrel. Ported muzzle. Inbuilt Koru muzzle-brake. Anodized in deep black fading to green at the muzzle-end.



Video below: I went goat shooting with my son David and his father in-law Graham. This was a great opportunity for me to take my .223 and custom carbon-fiber end-mounted suppressor with Matrix internals that I recently made. Video compares my suppressed .223 with Graham’s unsuppressed .22mag. Video taken on my iPhone.
