![]() ![]() The downside is that it requires special machines and takes longer to make. The benefits are increased strength and the ability to create internal geometries not possible with rotational-style manufacturing. ![]() Basically each suppressor is “grown” over a period of hours or days in machines that can turn out 20-40 pieces at a time. Manufacturing could be tilted towards the machinegun suppressor as we get closer to the award date.īecause the SLH and SLX models are manufactured using a non-standard technique called direct metal laser sintering (additive manufacturing or 3D printing), the process is more advanced, yet slower than bulk machined parts. The ongoing NGSW contract competition includes a suppressor requirement and SIG’s entry includes the SIG SLX68-MG-QD model. The current supply levels could be a result of a few different factors. But for whatever reason, the SIG SLX and SLH silencers are still hard to come by. The SL line of suppressors from SIG aren’t exactly new – we’ve shot them at a few events, inspected them at prior SHOT Shows, and they are even out in the wild in limited numbers. Coincidentally, one Silencer Saturday reader, Nick, reached out last week and asked about the SLX and SLH sound performance – I promise, these two just showed up yesterday. The SRD line, specifically the SRD762QD-TI model is one of the best performing subsonic 300BLK cans ever made (my opinion). The latest generation of suppressors from SIG have some big shoes to fill.
