    This is being reposted due to not being able to edit the OP.

    Also, if anyone wants to demo this can, PM me and I'll arrange it on my private range. It's worth hearing. Check them out at https://tsvsuppressors.com/

    So, I interviewed Travis at Tried and True Alehouse with our wives last week, and while our better halves discussed Chive TV, he and I got down to brass tacks about suppressors.

    First - Travis is a good guy. He knows how to run a machine shop, and although I kinda glazed over his technicals, he spent the next ten minutes telling me about how he cuts his end caps and uses astro-grade locktite on his suppressors. You can tell this guy loves his craft. Despite me trying to tell him to slow down, he kept throwing technicals at me, which as a reloading guy, I can fully appreciate. 6061, Yep. Steel threading, Dual port, single vent baffles... Dual Port single vent baffles. WTF? Hold up..... That's some new suppressor technology.

    What I can tell you is that this can is 6.050" long. It has five baffles. The front cap is actually good looking - something most manufactures don't care about. The other thing I can tell you is that Travis is a verified Marine Sniper. OEF & OIF. That's not bull, that's a real guy doing real stuff.

    The last thing I have to say before I put links below is - Dude, this can is unlike anything I've ever heard.

    This thing is quiet. So quiet. Really quiet. Hollywood quiet if you'll believe it. @edwea has shot it, and hopefully he'll chime in. It's something you have to hear to believe.

    Whitetail Trading is going to be the exclusive wholesaler of his suppressor line. He's also working on a 556, a 30cal and a 46cal, which I'm pretty excited about. Being the distributor, if you have an issue, you can call ME @Aszerigan directly and I'll get it fixed for you. That's the best promise you'll find on the internet.

    These cans are rated up to 5.7x28 and cost $279. I have six of them on form right now enroute. I can efile these in the next week.

    Full Disclosure - Travis sent me this can as a dealer sample. I had not fired the TSV can before video #2. This is my honest reaction. @edwea will back me up on this.

    I've never seen a can like this... Video below.

    I shot this thing this weekend and it is great. I got absolutely no first round pop from my bolt action. Just the trigger click. It is a very quiet suppressor. I didn't get a chance to shoot supers through it, maybe next time. With subs though, I think this is he closest to truly silent that you can make a firearm.

    1. Will he be using the 1.375 x 24 rear threading on the centerfire rifle cans?
    2. What material for the baffles?
    3. Will the rifle cans have a sleeve or just fully welded stack?

    I'm unsure of these details until he's finished testing. I'll certainly keep everyone up to date on the production details.
