New SilencerCo Omega Suppressor

[Jwknutson17]

Just got the email with the newly announced Omega. Looks like it should be a top contender in the market based on the numbers. With the 2 mounting options included, and at $880 from SilencerShop this may be a decant can.

Here is the spec sheet.

A tad shorter and 6.7oz lighter than the Saker, still F/A rated.

Must have it, just to prove the DB rating.

This one is a little rough for me...looks like a great product. Unfortunately I have a Saker 7.62 in NFA jail and installed a bunch of saker mounts. Looks like this is better in all ways, and doesn't share compatibility with my saker mounts

I'd get it if it worked with Saker brakes

May be my next can. Agree with Jambi, db rating needs to be verified.

The only part I don't care for is the ASR mount. I think the trifecta is a better system. I like the surefire and Griffin/Thundbeast as well

They clarified via email with me that the blast baffle is stellite, the rest of the baffles are stainless and the tube is Ti. They say it should be just as durable as the Saker.

ETA: Here is their exact wording: "Titanium tube, Stellite blast baffle and fully welded steel core. It will be just and durable as our Saker series. "

Huh? A stellite blast baffle with stainless baffles is as durable as a full stellite baffle core?

Edit: thanks for clearing that up with them. Now we know what is used where.

It's clearly not as durable as the Saker, when the Saker is rated to much shorter barrel lengths. Not sure why SiCo would be saying that


I can't wait until Silencershop or another well known dealer actually gets a hands on review and can confirm all of these contradicting rumors Silencerco is throwing out here.

All of which is moot in my opinion if they never release a MAAD trifecta mount that their supposedly top tier can uses. Using a legacy mount or 2nd tier mount is stupid IMHO..... that may offend some ASR users, but if the ASR was soo great, then SiCo should have only used that on the Saker.
