    The "oil can" suppressor

    Seen mention of these, never seen one being used. Don't really care what it does for a .22. What it does for 5.56/223 is what would be interesting. I'd worry it would explode with 5.56. Obviously for chits and giggles vs any sort of alternative to a legit can, but .22* is a range toy also:



    * I think he says .22, and recoil and noise seems like that to me.

    Couple things:
    First, I'm pretty sure you need an SOT for these, as technically every time you replace the filter you'd need to go through an FFL otherwise.
    Second, suppressed subsonic 22 has legitimate tactical purpose. A very niche one, but legitimate nonetheless.
