The Best Sound Suppressors for Young Hunters

Gunfinder Magazine

Especially for those who obtained their hunting license after the amendment to the Weapons Act on December 13, 2019, the use of sound suppressors is common. This is a good thing, as sound suppressors bring many different advantages to hunting practice. However, especially at the beginning, when one does not yet have extensive experience, choosing a sound suppressor can be a daunting task. 

We would like to present you with a few proven entry-level models of sound suppressors.

ERA SOB2: The ERA® SILENCER was developed with the goal of achieving the best possible suppression with a compact design and minimal weight – all while being fully Magnum-compatible and having a long lifespan.
The suppressors of the SOB series are designed as telescopic sound suppressors (Over-Barrel). A part of the suppressor extends backward over the barrel, allowing for very good suppression values to be realized with a short net length. Additionally, the typical first-shot noise found in other suppressors is reduced to an absolute minimum. Recoil and muzzle flash are also significantly diminished.

From shooting from a goose position to innovative applications – the festival offers an ideal platform to test products up close and to get comprehensive information about the latest developments on the market.
