Cutting thought the hype and diving into the reality of suppressors. Mike Pappas and Gary Hughes of Dead Air Armament share their insights into all things suppressor related.

Don't compare the Rio to a hipoint man......

[@CWHolleman]

I have nothing but respect for Gary and Mike but this is the most odd interview I've ever seen.
2 guys standing awkwardly while the interviewer sits..Not sure whose idea this was but it's terrible.

[@nikog2575]

I buy dead air because I want the best quality product I can get my mitts on. Seeing this video makes me want to keep supporting them just because they seem super down to earth.

[@averagemanoutdoors2776]

Thanks for Making this! Sandman S in Jail now !

[@damagedgoods62]

I will be purchasing one of these guys' products VERY soon. I see a Sandman "S" coming my way!

[@Wonderkidd863]

Great stuff from DA guys...but the interviewer needs to tame the “like” in every question he asked. It seems he tried to make this very conversational but he did not seem prepared in asking the questions.

[@megatrolltrollington]

Dead Airs method of building the best they can, then after it's done determining pricing based off what it costs them is why I buy Dead Air. I hate when I look at a product and I can see where they cut corners to stay in budget.

[@Nordic_Goon]

Great interview. Dead Air definitely leads the way in in high cost provider cans. I have form 1 cans that are made on quality conical Ti/ stainless baffles, but they will never be a dead air can. however close they may come, dead air squeezes out the extra performance that they fail to provide.

[@dustyrhodes1655]

Mike is a national treasure.

[@bengriffith5963]

Just met Mike at SHOT. Epic dude.

[@Prodigysportsman]

15:22 "Silencerco Harvester" is now one of Carlin's "seven dirty words" ;) Schauble sue THAT many people??

[@zandewar]

Good information, thanks Mike.

[@devileyedelvis3739]

These guys are great man. 100% sold on Personality alone

[@SkinnySkinch]

I can confirm. I shoot about 10x as much rimfire as centerfire. I have 10+ cans. Equal mix of form 1 and form 4 cans.

[@brianschwarz5124]

Nomad 30 in jail. 👍

[@TheRepublicHasBeenLost]

Nice

[@Arick817]

I love that there full auto rated and no barrel restrictions.

[@licensetochill79]

While all agree with them saying that it's not just a piece of metal inside that is in a can. You have to pay for the research and development of that piece of metal. But once that cost is made up in selling the device most manufacturers do not lower the cost of their device. So yes it is a piece of metal inside of a can

[@mikepappas6415]

I'm that guy you love to hate you are correct. We have never added a cost for R&D to our cost of goods. It’s a lot easier than a product price change later on.

[@licensetochill79]

Mike Pappas that's good to know. But truth be told I'm really jealous that I can own one. Because of the fact that live in New Jersey. Or the way I call it New Germany

[@mikepappas6415]

I'm that guy you love to hate I know it’s not super likely to happen but, I never give up hope for a brother behind enemy lines. I would love it if those states like your changed their laws on that.

[@licensetochill79]

Mike Pappas thx brother

[@danedefense2046]

It's Gary "Du Ma" Hughes

[@squib3083]

Great interview and info. Just purchased a Sandman L

[@theloyalnine9765]

Great video. I'm sharing with everyone I know who wants to get into the tax stamp world.

[@ShooterOpinions]

James Jameson thanks man. I appreciate it.

[@NeonVars]

Mike gives me some serious Jack Nicholson vibes.

[@ndeepowder]

i wish mike was my uncle, damn the man is a genius

[@rahenry01]

What Stellite are you using for long range 300 calibre bolt action or gas operated long range rifles?

[@jayplatt8798]

Great interview guys!

[@micjr21]

The one person that gave this video a thumbs down should be ashamed

[@84roberto]

[@sticrzy123]

Would love to see a making of a DeadAir video or a Cutaway

[@smsgtbulldog]

I love my little Dead Air Armament family! Mask-HD, Ghost-M Sandman-S, Wolverine PBS-1, Wolf-9SD, Pyro Enhanced Muzzle Brake and a metric butt load of adapters, muzzle devices and other good stuff. Keep up the good work guys, y’all set the benchmark everyone else compares their cans to.

[@VRGalaxy_762]

I could listen to Gary talk for hours. Smart and down to earth. Mike and his guys at Dead Air are doing the hard work to make the best products. Way to go, guys. Keep up the great work.

[@Tmac327]

awesome video! I had the privilege to work with Mr Pappas for a while, he is as good of a guy as they come! They make super excellent suppressors! get one!!! LOVE my Sandman K !!!

[@utahted7330]

money

[@rl1271]

Is a sandman L ok to use for semi-auto use?

[@carsenegame]

Mike Pappas said in a different video that the longer can slightly increases noise through the ejection port vs the sandman s, but it would work fine

[@TBagr]

Anyone know where I can get the shirt that the guy with the hat is wearing on the left?

[@braxtonamour]

Sons of Liberty Gun Works. Not sure if they’re currently selling them

[@samdelaet3587]

Love my SandMan Ti!

[@sticrzy123]

How about making a RimFire Adapter for the Sandman Series 😃👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@stupidasso77]

Over priced mufflers. Just add the word gun.

[@easternarmory7617]

not so much the engineering and materials that goes into these things is pretty insane. most car or motorcycle mufflers are pretty simplistic by comparison

[@Front-Toward-Enemy]

@Travis ThackerJust because you don't have a use for them doesn't mean other people don't. Get the fuck over yourself you arrogant old fart.

[@Bigeasyya]

stupidasso77 night vision, home defense, eliminating flash giving away your location? Don’t be a fudd because you don’t have money
