<p><a href="https://barrett.net/" data-type="link" data-id="https://barrett.net/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Barrett Firearms</a> announces Justin Wolf and spotter James Archer’s&nbsp;second&nbsp;place finish at&nbsp;the global 2023 King of 2 Miles&nbsp;competition, held at the NRA Whittington Center on September 22-24, 2023. What makes this result&nbsp;even more impressive is that Wolf was one of only three competitors who successfully engaged all seven targets, the furthest being 3526 yards in the finals with a new Barrett rifle chambered in .416 Barrett&nbsp;using 500-grain Cutting Edge Lazer Bullets.&nbsp;</p>



<p>The three-day event attracts the world’s best marksmen and is regarded as the ultimate proving ground for long-range shooting, pushing the boundaries of precision and equipment performance.&nbsp;Of 69 competitors, Barrett represented 11% of rifles competing in the&nbsp;extreme long range&nbsp;event yet reflected 21% of the global Top 14 finalists.&nbsp;Barrett’s competing rifle system was the only factory configured product represented in this year’s competition that typically showcases custom-built rifles.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Wolf said the results were a testament to the new Barrett rifle&#8217;s exceptional precision and the promise it holds for the future of long-range shooting. “It’s always amazing to shoot big ELR events like this. The feeling of accomplishment of making the finals and having this success with the new Barrett equipment is second to none.”</p>



<p>Bryan James, President of Barrett Firearms, said:&nbsp;&#8220;Justin’s performance with our rifle at the King of 2 Miles&nbsp;competition is a source of immense pride for Barrett. It is a testament to our unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of what is possible in long-range shooting. We look forward to officially unveiling this innovation to the world at the 2024 SHOT Show and bringing the same capability to the hands of marksmen who demand nothing but the best.&#8221;</p>



<p>Barrett Firearms invites media, industry professionals, and shooting enthusiasts to visit their booth #10344 or Industry Day at the Range during the 2024 SHOT Show in Las Vegas, Nevada, from January 23–26, 2024, where they can experience the new product firsthand and learn more about this revolutionary rifle&#8217;s specifications and capabilities.</p>

<p>The AWC Silencers <strong>THOR Thundertrap</strong> is a shorter, lighter, and astonishingly quiet suppressor that celebrates the 5th generation of the Thundertrap. Delivering accuracy demanded by law enforcement snipers, the Thundertrap retains spent gases for a longer period causing the sound emitted to be a soft hiss rather than a pop.

<p>Made of a lightweight, high strength Titanium alloy, which is 100% CNC machined and orbital welded to minimize weight without sacrificing durability.

<p>Gas in the face may present health risks to the shooter. This issue was first addressed in 2013 when B&amp;T produced a suppressor designed for the B&amp;T MP9 machine pistol. The <strong>RBS</strong> suppressor significantly reduces the amount of gas exhausted from the ejection port. The RBS combine the following qualities: significant reduction of gas, minimal impact on rate of fire, similar flash reduction as a conventional suppressor, similar sound reduction as a conventional suppressor.</p>

<p>The B&amp;T <strong>RBS SQD</strong> &#8211; Reduced Back Pressure Suppressor is another member of the B&amp;T family of suppressors that dramatically reduces the amount of gas directed at the face of the shooter. The rock-solid, 3-lug attaching system mounts the suppressor bayonet-style in one quick motion. To remove the suppressor, the operator only needs to press one lever and pull in the opposite direction. This ingenious system will not become loose even while firing full automatic.</p>

<p>Years ago Griffin Armament introduced a market-changing product, the Optimus suppressor. This suppressor could be used on both a handgun, as well as a rifle, was modular for length, modular for mounting system, and was also user serviceable. The <strong>Optimus 9</strong> provides multi-tool functionality with premium materials, workmanship, and application of technology.

<p>The <strong>Dominus-SR</strong> is a true light-weight “go to war” suppressor and is perfect for 5.56 assault rifles and .30 caliber battle rifles, including SBR and full-auto variants. It retains the accuracy and repeatability TBAC is known for. It’s equally at home on a 0.25 MOA bolt rifle on the 1500-yard range as it is on a MK18 in the CQB house. Note that Thunder Beast does not list sound reduction in the spec chart below and instead lists the measured sound level because the unsuppressed starting point changes based on muzzle device used.</p>

<p>The <strong>338 ULTRA SR</strong> is TBAC’s high-performance .338 caliber suppressor. It offers class leading suppression levels for big magnums like .300 Norma and .338 Lapua Magnum, a light weight design, and our “SR” quick attach/detach mount that offers locking secondary retention in addition to absolute return to zero.  It was Accuracy International’s choice for the ASR submission rifle. Note that Thunder Beast does not list sound reduction in the spec chart below and instead lists the measured sound level because the unsuppressed starting point changes based on muzzle device used.</p>

<p>The <strong>Phantom .22</strong> provides superior sound reduction thanks to a newly designed baffle system. Features include a shielded, interlocking baffle stack made from heat-treated 17-4 stainless steel, a two-part outer assembly with an aluminum blast chamber, and a tube which houses the baffle stack. The rear of the blast chamber serves as the takedown tool for the muzzle cap. The Phantom .22 can handle rounds up to 5.7x28mm while only weighing four ounces.</p>

<p>When YHM set out to make the <strong>R9</strong>, the goal was a 9mm suppressor capable of handling high volumes of fire while able to run other calibers such as .300 BLK and .308 Win. Primarily focused on suppressing 9mm (specifically submachine guns and SBRs,) it was made at a budget-friendly price while maintaining the durability one expects from YHM. The R9 is capable of being used on a handgun in conjunction with our Nielsen booster assembly.</p>
