The history of the silencer brand HQS is as remarkable as its products themselves. It begins with four Bulgarian hunters – individuals with different skills but a common passion: hunting and nature. Their expertise in weapon design, materials science, and processing led them to the idea of developing silencers for everyday use in the hunting grounds. Thanks to the positive feedback from other hunters in Bulgaria, they decided to make their high-quality products accessible to a wider audience. Thus, the brand HQS – High Quality Suppressors – was born.
An international focus from the very beginning
Although the founders are from Bulgaria, the English name of the brand shows that they had the international market in mind from the start. In Germany, HQS silencers are distributed through the wholesale partner HUNTEX from Hamburg. They are manufactured at Bamex 98, a company that also works for the military industry. It is part of a corporate group with other companies engaged in various industries, including the production of weights and the processing of lightweight metal alloys. This group employs around 300 people in total.
Diverse models for different requirements
HQS currently offers five different silencer models for the German market:
HQS Special Impact: This model is particularly suitable for strong calibers and, with a price of 559,- Euro, is the most expensive product in the portfolio. It also offers the highest attenuation performance at 42 dB.
HQS Special: Another model for strong calibers, available for 459,- Euro. It features a patented pressure relief technology and provides sound insulation of 34 dB.
HQS Special Slim: A slimmer and lighter model for 369,- Euro, offering an attenuation performance of 28 dB.
HQS Impact: This silencer is the cheapest model at 319,- Euro and provides sound insulation of 32 dB.
HQS Hunter: The first and most well-known model from HQS. It is suitable for classic hunting calibers and costs 369,- Euro.
Additionally, there is the HQS Slim for 349,- Euro, which was specifically developed for driven hunts.
A look into the details
What makes HQS silencers special is not only their technical specifications but also the details. Each silencer comes with instructions, replacement O-rings, heat-resistant grease, and the appropriate disassembly tool. Furthermore, HQS offers heat-resistant neoprene protective covers.
A special feature of some HQS models is the ability to replace worn chambers instead of buying a completely new silencer. This saves the hunter money and effort.
Conclusion
HQS has made a name for itself due to its high product quality and appreciation for the needs of hunters worldwide. The combination of technical know-how, careful material selection, and a clear focus on practicality makes the silencers a must-have for every passionate hunter. With a wide product range and an international network, HQS is well-positioned to continue building on the needs and wishes of its customers in the future.
