Silencer for shotgun

Watching no country for old men, just wondering if they actually make them.

Yes, Red Jacket makes one for Saiga shot guns, not sure what others are out there.

Google it and you will find a few suppressed shotguns, but the db reduction isn't nearly as impressive as you see in the movies.

They are quite loud and very large. It doesnt work well.

Red Jacket Firearms did it on a Saiga 12 gauge. They catalog the suppressor as #BMF-S-12 for $900 (plus necessary BATFE fees). I remember the question "Why"? The answer was because the customer saw it in a movie (No Country for Old Men) and wanted it. Yes it can be done but............

I believe Hiram Maxium was the first to produce shotgun suppressors back around the turn of the century. There are some good technical manuals on suppressors that could prove valuable on the subject. If I remember correctly, he made a comment that it was for the civilized man who duck hunted. Suppressors were a means to shoot quietly and not annoy the neighbors.

I can see it working well for a slug gun but it would need to be quite large...

I'd rather have a "loudener"

The Metro Barrel Extension works just as well with no stamp. Kind of long, but it works.

That was a cool episode, that was my first thought when I read the title.

I seen it on Red jacket. I do not believe it. The shot cup and or loose shot expansion will tare up the cones.
