Air Lock Industries Suppressor

[Escalante11]

@AirlockIndustries when do you think we'll see some details on the 6mm can? I know I want a Nano, but conflicted on ordering a 6.5 for my 6 Dasher to have for this fall or waiting for the 6mm.

I also would appreciate an update on the 6mm can. I'm torn between the OG6-S group buy (ending tomorrow) or waiting for a 6mm ZG...

We have a tech scheduled to come out on April 27th to install our in-house printer. Once it's up and running, we’ll begin prototyping on the 6mm.

We don’t have an exact ETA yet, but size-wise we’re targeting something slightly shorter than the Nano, with a slightly smaller OD than the 6.5 and a weight that falls in between the two.

How’s the sound between the two? I’ve seen the airlock video but always curious to hear 3rd party opinions.

Shot the Airlock 7 today on my 7mm08. Significantly quieter than the Evo, like not even close. Also shot my 270 WSM through it, very impressive.

Only con is it gets hot AF quickly. 2 shots through the WSM and the mirage at 18x was tough to deal with (no cover).

I hadn't heard people talk about airlock mirage but I had a feeling it was going to be significant.

Oh its absolutely insane for range use, but there's no free lunch i guess. The suppression is remarkably good regardless of weight...then when weight is taken into account...gypsy black magic

If 10 rd groups are in the cards, bring a couple other rifles to fill your time with while she cools. Think I busted 20 clays at 300 with the 223 and OG six five today haha

My Airlock Nano does heat up to mirage fast. However, it cools significantly quicker than the other can I used to make down time between shot strings a wash. Great performance overall!

Less than 72 hours for my Form 4 approval. That includes a Sunday. I may be shooting my 6.5 this evening!

Wild to think that the approval process is now by far the fastest part of the entire equation lol. I've been waiting 2 months now just to be able to pre-order a couple (I was 7 minutes late on the Feb pre-order lol).
