Problem with CNC, like all computers, Garbage in, Garbage out. But this setup looks effective. So why turn round stock into tubes? Material, time and energy waste.
Dear Bryan, Sorry for this late reply. We use rods rather than tubes for several reasons. One reason is that tubes tend to vary slightly in thickness, increasing the risk of the suppressor rupturing. By machining out a rod, we have total control of material strength through uniformity. Another reason is that the internal diameter of each segment vary greatly. One end of a segment has a vary large diameter, where the other end is rather narrow. This can be seen in the video as well. We are therefore not just mindlessly machining away aluminium for the sake of it, but because it, unfortunately, is necessary for a functionally great design with a rather low weight (many of our supressors are below 400 grams) I hope this answers your question.
@@NielsenGunPartsDK bryan s martin is right. your answers are just excuses for bad and lazy machining/engineering and poor production design, very wasteful. use slightly larger/thicker extruded tube, turn down outer, re-bore inner. job done.
@@paulforster6229 Hi Paul, Sorry, but a "slightly thicker tube" does not solve the problem. Partly because the process of making a tube stretches the aluminum locally and partly because we need part of each component to have a small diameter. Of course, we could circumvent the last problem with more threaded joints, but that is not really smarter or better as it introduces new problems of its own. All in all, I actually think we have some general idea of what we are doing. :)
@@NielsenGunPartsDK Making bar stock also introduces 'stretch'. So? Choice of alloys and post processing can deal with 'stretching' etc. I didn't say you don't know what you are doing, overall, I just pointed out I was agreeing about how wasteful your 'solid bar' machining was. And it could easily be revisited and designed out. Pre-drawn/pressed/cast/annealed/aged then machined would be more economical, and deal with the 'small dia' problem, at the expense of probably more operations, but less wasteful of feed-stock. Injection casting is really fast and accurate for pre-forms, minimal post-cast machining deals with the rest of the process. Only two threads per component, and one insert. Less waste; much of which you could re-cycle/re-use on site.

Great Video.... YEARS late, I know but one question; How do they ensure the bore is running true with the axis of the machine when threading the muzzle just by chucking the outside of the barrel? I've been taught to get the bore indicated to within 0.0002" (yes, two tenths) when chambering AND crowning. I've seen bores run way out, when the O.D. of the barrel is running true.....
To make it work you must use subsonic ammo otherwise the projectile will break the sound brier . on a .22 rim fire that is the crack you hear when you fie a round !!!!
these are for hunting, so the prey animal will hear the bullet 'crack' but not the muzzle report, thus cannot tell direction of fire/whence it came....so you can shoot a far tree (or with hogs, the furthest hog away), the prey animals (or sounder of hogs) will hear that impact and come toward you offering a better, closer shot.
Your factory is so quiet! Get it? But, all joking aside, I appreciate all of the actual hands-on work, and the end product is very good. I'll have to find some vids on their use. Thanx!

Hi Tony, The barrel does get crowned, but perhaps it is a little hard to see in the process within the machine. However, the shot were grease is being applied to the thread clearly shows the slight concave crowning. :) The only instance where we do not make a crowning, is when the total length of thw barrel is being retained. In that case the old crowning remains.

@@richardturner6981 None, it doesn't make a bank sound? I already merely makes a piff sound? Big bullet but no bang, no smoke?

I guess you could have a "gas" charge that is ignited by a spark making an explosive force... what is the sound level of that type of setup? 80 dB, 120 dB? Is this merely an easy, cheap, way to punch holes in paper? Seriously, I am not making fun of the sport "sounds" as it would be fun with fewer hassles from ATF etc. USe a common propane mixture? I think I've talked myself into checking this out more... to my knowledge people do make a flash suppressor for these types of machines. And anytime something screws onto a barrel it would seem the ATF/BATF would want their $500 and registration assessment... if no one does make them this company might consider making them for the .177 cal. (I don't know the metric of that size).
"A suppressed sound level as the barrel is shrouded and moderated." from the FX Boss .30 cal pcp web site. 870 fps, 80+ lbs of force at the mussel, 40 shots per charge. That sounds like a heck of a lot of fun, 1" grouping at `100 yards... that's better than I can do, my grouping would probably be about an 8-foot grouping at 100 feet.
i hate how perfect everything is! ;) curious tho- no filler rod required on the tig weld? i'm just beginning my tig welding courses and learning- i thought filler was needed for tig- ready to be educated :)
We should have legally available "sound reducers" available to everyone legally allowed to own a firearm here in America. We also need nationwide reciprocity.
@@bearly1727 they only dont exist to certain people in America, in the rest of the world it is a perfectly acceptable term. What is the name of one of the largest producers of silencer's I'm America, what were the ASA called until 2014 ,what was on maxim's patent. It has only recently been an issue because certain people dont like the term silencer, its similar to people saying assault rifles dont exist even when it is used in the correct context.
Hi AldoSchmedack, Thanks for an interesting question. The machining times are approximately: 1 minutes per front module (7 total), 3 minutes for the back end, 4 minutes for the inner tube and 30 seconds per insert in the front end pieces. Thus, a total of about 16 minutes and 30 seconds machining time. Assembly adds about 5 minutes of man-hours total. Of course, there's a bit of added handling related to having the pieces anodized by a third party as well. Particularly, the use of hi-tech machinery means that machining can be done largely unsupervised and that tolerances are very precise, thus limiting the need for manual measurements. It all adds up to a rather time-efficient process. I hope this answers your question!
@@NielsenGunPartsDK That is amazing! I never get tired of seeing CNC at work. CNC, auto load, auto measure and auto tool swap have to be the greatest 20th century inventions ever. My 1st supressor should be approved at the begining of the next year. Can't wait to ditch the ear muffs when doing 22lr. TY for the info!
Hi Naaz, thanks for the question. In order to sell a silencer to a foreign reciever, a gun dealers license is required. In addition, an import permit from the receving country and an export permit from Denmark is also needed. (Even if you pick up the silencer directly from us..) In sum, unfortunately, it is a little complicated to sell silencers as many governments seem to find them to be very dangerous..
Tony Botha Understandable, but if this isn't done, the total length becomes unweilding. It has very little impact on speed nor accuracy and is, I dare say, standard practice.
Absolute crap blast suppressor! We here in america make the best there is in the world hands down! Ask anyone that actually use them everyday! Thats the real ticket right there.
Hi Robert, Excellent that you take pride in your country. However, independent tests do usually rank our products fairly high. Combine this with our close to unequivocal positive customer feedback and I do dare say that our products are far from "crap". Though, untill it is possible to import our products to the U. S. we will not be able to let the U. S. customers speak for themselves. We do, however, often get e-mails from U. S. citizens who tried our products in other countries, asking if if we can ship silencers to the U. S. :)
Hello i have a Sonic 35 but i have no Key to be able to strip the sound moderator where can i buy such a tool ?, I have the 35 on my cz527v 17Hornet and i am very impressed with it .
Hi Manchap karM, we're very happy to hear that you are pleased with your silencer. A key should be available who the vendor who sold you the silencer, or at least they can order them from us. They can also order the heat-resistant sealant paste we use for the threading. Can I ask why you want to take it apart? We dont generally recommend it.
Thank you i bought it second hand and i really just wanted to clean it , not sure how many rounds it has had through it . Many thanks for your reply , I have tested this Sonic 35 against a couple of other sound moderators and been down range of them all the sonic came out the best and quietest. Thanks for a great product .
@@manchapkarm3626 Thanks, it's great that you compared it with other products available! Regarding maintenance, we recommend unscrewing the silencer from your rifle and giving the silencer a light spray of WD40 in the backend. For cleaning, shooting enough rounds on a shooting range for it to become hot will generally burn off most soot inside it. Of course, you should not fire excessive rounds - just enough for it to become hot.
+WangHangLow1 I see no one has answered this, and this is a bit late. But better late than never! If you'll notice, the very last operation the lathe does, after threading, is the crowning of the muzzle.
I wish we could buy them without needing the tax stamp here in the U.S. There is no reason for it.There safer for your hearing reduce recoil and make shooting a lot more pleasant .
gvet47 There is no "outer housing". Each piece is thredded and screwn together. We use rods rather than tubing due to the varying internal diameters of each segment. Another factor is that the aluminium tubing tend to vary slightly in thickness, making tubes unreliable. Tubes are also less resilliant in manufacturing, often causing problems in unsupervised bar-loaders. Therefore, we have to use rods. Gerry is also right that the price of rods vs tubes is basically equal. But of course we would machine less if possible. I hope this clears up any questions.
Hi ! I'm very impressed with your job . very neat and professional . I have a .22 lr Krico and would like to fit a silencer on it but at the end of the barrel can't thread as there is a front sight . May be you have solution to it e.g muzle adapter . I would be very pleased to hear from you . Thanks .
Thank you for the kind words. On a cal .22 you can move the sight 15 mm back in combination with making the threading. On a larger calibre the sight is removed altogether, as these silencers cover 12 - 14 cm of the end of the barrel. The silencer for a .22Lr only adds forward, therefore the sight just needs to be moved back a bit, as to make room for the threading. Hope this answers your question.
What is the approximate cost to have a .22 WMR Bull barrel threaded.By the way, your operation is stellar. I was amazed at how quickly the barrel got threaded. what was it 53 seconds? Smokin'.
I just ordered my sonic for my 30.06 rifle. After watching your vid I have a question. How does it impact the velocity and distance after cutting the barrel 14cm shorter? Surely a longer traveling bullet will be more accurate?
Hi Leon, unfortunately we do not have any hard statistical data to show you. However, it is safe to say from testing that the bullet does not suffer any significant loss of momentum. While the accuracy does drop somewhat this drop is negligble within the distances of hunting and may at most result in a few centimeter of scattering at 300m. Thus you are right; cutting off 14 cm of the barrel does influence the accuracy and momentum of the bullet, but it does so to such a small degree that you would not notice it in an actual hunting situation. Apologies for a slow reply and congratulations with your new silencer, we hope it'll be of good use.
A barrel that is 14cm longer is not really any more accurate, but what the shorter barrel will do is reduce the velocity of the rounds leaving the barrel, therefor reducing it's range, but also increasing the time of travel which also slightly increases the associated effects of wind. However, a shorter barrel is not inherently less accurate then a longer one. If both were fired on a perfect windless range, the only measurable difference would be range.
There can be some loss of distance with a shorter barrel, but it is typically easier to manufacture a short accurate barrel than it is a long accurate barrel. The longer the barrel, the beefier it has to be in order to control barrel whip, these oscillations which are called "harmonics" are easier to control in a shorter barrel. Therefore, all else being equal, the more accurate one, provided the projectile is stabilized properly is the shorter barrel. Length of barrel is not an enhancement to accuracy. It generally provides more speed, therefore more range. Very accurate longer barrels are substantially heavier than shorter ones not just because of length but because of the required increase in diameter necessary to mitigate whip.
+duffys gunsmithing Thank you very much. "The older gentlemen", he wont hear the end of this! Indeed, unfortunately US laws make the modular design extraordinarily expensive, as each segment requires a separate serial no. and permit.
"and youre not counting on anything here of cures" I don't know what that means. And I beg to differ that you can count on the bore being in the center of the barrel. Form what I understand, it being in the center is not the thing they (barrel manufacturers) worry about the most, it's that it's STRAIGHT. Also, from what I have read, modern barrels DO come with out of concentric bores.
Seth Watson The threading shown in this clip is made on a barrel of recognized quality, in which the bore is both straight and concentric. However it is correct that there are barrels of lesser quality and manufacture, in which the bore may be excentric, and occasionally even slightly curved. These barrels are controlled and centerede prior to threading. Furtheremore, all barrels are visually inspected after the threading. Concentricity (or excentricity) can, with experience, be determined by looking through the bore. It is worth mentioning that less than 1 in 100 barrels are so poorly centerede that they require adjustment. These statements, and the statistics, are based on well beyond 3000 mountings of rifles of varying manufacturer and quality. As an added safety precaution, the diameter of the internal hole of the silencer is made 1 mm larger than the diameter of the caliber for which it is sold. Thus even if the bore should be excentric in such a slight degree that it is not apparently visible, the added diameter will allow for the projectile to clear the silencer. Thank you for pointing this out for clarification. Kind regards.
+Sonic Silencers he's trying to say you've probably never even seen a gun in real life and think silencers work like in the movies because you play too many video games. whereas he's so smart he knows it's really a suppressor because no gun can be silent. lol keep up the quality work guys, if I wasn't years into IT I'd be machining. really want to get a taig mill or even harbor freight lathe and mess around at home.
Yes, silencer. The guy who INVENTED it, Hiram Maxim, named it the silencer in his original patents and ads. It's a silencer first and foremost. "Suppressor" was a term adopted after the fact and not used by Maxim. People that try to correct others for calling it a silencer just look like fools who don't know the history of the item they're discussing. Try harder.
I have a Sonic 45 on my .308 and a 35 on my .22 - Absolutely love the quality of the construction and the performance.

(I don't know the metric of that size).
"A suppressed sound level as the barrel is shrouded and moderated." from the FX Boss .30 cal pcp web site. 870 fps, 80+ lbs of force at the mussel, 40 shots per charge. That sounds like a heck of a lot of fun, 1" grouping at `100 yards... that's better than I can do, my grouping would probably be about an 8-foot grouping at 100 feet.
i hate how perfect everything is! ;) curious tho- no filler rod required on the tig weld? i'm just beginning my tig welding courses and learning- i thought filler was needed for tig- ready to be educated :)
He's just fusing the parts together but u probably already know this if the 2 surfaces are together that close u don't need filler
Hm your R4 silencer?
How is this a silencer?
We should have legally available "sound reducers" available to everyone legally allowed to own a firearm here in America. We also need nationwide reciprocity.
Do you mean "Silencer's"?
@@jizzmonkey9679 I used the term used in the video and the correct term used in America is Suppressors. Silencers really don't exist.
@@bearly1727 they only dont exist to certain people in America, in the rest of the world it is a perfectly acceptable term.
What is the name of one of the largest producers of silencer's I'm America, what were the ASA called until 2014 ,what was on maxim's patent.
It has only recently been an issue because certain people dont like the term silencer, its similar to people saying assault rifles dont exist even when it is used in the correct context.
How long does it take to make one of these when you add up all the processes involved?
Hi AldoSchmedack,
Thanks for an interesting question. The machining times are approximately: 1 minutes per front module (7 total), 3 minutes for the back end, 4 minutes for the inner tube and 30 seconds per insert in the front end pieces. Thus, a total of about 16 minutes and 30 seconds machining time. Assembly adds about 5 minutes of man-hours total. Of course, there's a bit of added handling related to having the pieces anodized by a third party as well.
Particularly, the use of hi-tech machinery means that machining can be done largely unsupervised and that tolerances are very precise, thus limiting the need for manual measurements. It all adds up to a rather time-efficient process.
I hope this answers your question!
@@NielsenGunPartsDK That is amazing! I never get tired of seeing CNC at work. CNC, auto load, auto measure and auto tool swap have to be the greatest 20th century inventions ever. My 1st supressor should be approved at the begining of the next year. Can't wait to ditch the ear muffs when doing 22lr. TY for the info!
excelent work, man,you got name?
Boa tarde..... tenho um rifle 17 hmr e preciso de um silencioso. como faço para adquirir?
Vende para o Brasil?
Qual o valor?
how could i get one out of your country? is their any procedure ?
Hi Naaz, thanks for the question. In order to sell a silencer to a foreign reciever, a gun dealers license is required. In addition, an import permit from the receving country and an export permit from Denmark is also needed. (Even if you pick up the silencer directly from us..)
In sum, unfortunately, it is a little complicated to sell silencers as many governments seem to find them to be very dangerous..
I have one and its same product of U.S cal.45.
Wow wow wow
Wow
If they cut off that much from my gun's barrel I will have a heart attack
Tony Botha Understandable, but if this isn't done, the total length becomes unweilding. It has very little impact on speed nor accuracy and is, I dare say, standard practice.
Absolute crap blast suppressor! We here in america make the best there is in the world hands down! Ask anyone that actually use them everyday! Thats the real ticket right there.
Hi Robert,
Excellent that you take pride in your country. However, independent tests do usually rank our products fairly high. Combine this with our close to unequivocal positive customer feedback and I do dare say that our products are far from "crap".
Though, untill it is possible to import our products to the U. S. we will not be able to let the U. S. customers speak for themselves. We do, however, often get e-mails from U. S. citizens who tried our products in other countries, asking if if we can ship silencers to the U. S. :)
Hello i have a Sonic 35 but i have no Key to be able to strip the sound moderator where can i buy such a tool ?, I have the 35 on my cz527v 17Hornet and i am very impressed with it .
Hi Manchap karM, we're very happy to hear that you are pleased with your silencer. A key should be available who the vendor who sold you the silencer, or at least they can order them from us. They can also order the heat-resistant sealant paste we use for the threading. Can I ask why you want to take it apart? We dont generally recommend it.
Thank you i bought it second hand and i really just wanted to clean it , not sure how many rounds it has had through it .
Many thanks for your reply , I have tested this Sonic 35 against a couple of other sound moderators and been down range of them all the sonic came out the best and quietest.
Thanks for a great product .
@@manchapkarm3626 Thanks, it's great that you compared it with other products available! Regarding maintenance, we recommend unscrewing the silencer from your rifle and giving the silencer a light spray of WD40 in the backend. For cleaning, shooting enough rounds on a shooting range for it to become hot will generally burn off most soot inside it. Of course, you should not fire excessive rounds - just enough for it to become hot.
Thank you i never fire that many to get it hot
i need it for benjamín Discovery 177 from mexico

Question: I noticed you didn't crown your barrel... Has that affected the accuracy of the rifle with and without a suppressor?
The crowning was done at 6:51-6:55
+WangHangLow1 I see no one has answered this, and this is a bit late.
But better late than never!
If you'll notice, the very last operation the lathe does, after threading,
is the crowning of the muzzle.
Better than a cabbage !

Were silencers not forbidden in the USA..or was it an other country.. Would be nice to some awards winning data..like Decibel tests and compare
Wish I own one..
Bendangwati Longkumer - buy one or make one i did.on TH-cam there are tutorial on ‘ How To ‘ about silencers,and just about everything else ! !
I wish we could buy them without needing the tax stamp here in the U.S. There is no reason for it.There safer for your hearing reduce recoil and make shooting a lot more pleasant .
Interesting the outer housing is machined from a solid rod rather than a DOM tube.
Tubing cut to I.D, and O,D, is more pricey then solid bar stock....crazy, but true at times!
gvet47 There is no "outer housing". Each piece is thredded and screwn together. We use rods rather than tubing due to the varying internal diameters of each segment. Another factor is that the aluminium tubing tend to vary slightly in thickness, making tubes unreliable. Tubes are also less resilliant in manufacturing, often causing problems in unsupervised bar-loaders.
Therefore, we have to use rods. Gerry is also right that the price of rods vs tubes is basically equal. But of course we would machine less if possible.
I hope this clears up any questions.
Sonic Silencers just liked watching anything being manufactured so thanks for your comments.
Hi ! I'm very impressed with your job . very neat and professional . I have a .22 lr Krico and would like to fit a silencer on it but at the end of the barrel can't thread as there is a front sight . May be you have solution to it e.g muzle adapter .
I would be very pleased to hear from you .
Thanks .
Thank you for the kind words.
On a cal .22 you can move the sight 15 mm back in combination with making the threading. On a larger calibre the sight is removed altogether, as these silencers cover 12 - 14 cm of the end of the barrel.
The silencer for a .22Lr only adds forward, therefore the sight just needs to be moved back a bit, as to make room for the threading.
Hope this answers your question.
What is the approximate cost to have a .22 WMR Bull barrel threaded.By the way, your operation is stellar. I was amazed at how quickly the barrel got threaded. what was it 53 seconds? Smokin'.

I just ordered my sonic for my 30.06 rifle. After watching your vid I have a question. How does it impact the velocity and distance after cutting the barrel 14cm shorter? Surely a longer traveling bullet will be more accurate?
Hi Leon, unfortunately we do not have any hard statistical data to show you. However, it is safe to say from testing that the bullet does not suffer any significant loss of momentum. While the accuracy does drop somewhat this drop is negligble within the distances of hunting and may at most result in a few centimeter of scattering at 300m.
Thus you are right; cutting off 14 cm of the barrel does influence the accuracy and momentum of the bullet, but it does so to such a small degree that you would not notice it in an actual hunting situation.
Apologies for a slow reply and congratulations with your new silencer, we hope it'll be of good use.
A barrel that is 14cm longer is not really any more accurate, but what the shorter barrel will do is reduce the velocity of the rounds leaving the barrel, therefor reducing it's range, but also increasing the time of travel which also slightly increases the associated effects of wind. However, a shorter barrel is not inherently less accurate then a longer one. If both were fired on a perfect windless range, the only measurable difference would be range.
There can be some loss of distance with a shorter barrel, but it is typically easier to manufacture a short accurate barrel than it is a long accurate barrel. The longer the barrel, the beefier it has to be in order to control barrel whip, these oscillations which are called "harmonics" are easier to control in a shorter barrel. Therefore, all else being equal, the more accurate one, provided the projectile is stabilized properly is the shorter barrel. Length of barrel is not an enhancement to accuracy. It generally provides more speed, therefore more range. Very accurate longer barrels are substantially heavier than shorter ones not just because of length but because of the required increase in diameter necessary to mitigate whip.
With a conventional suppressor it actually increases fps
Where can i order and how much for .45 and M4?
no sonic silencers for you usa : ( awesome video !! would have nice to see the older gentlemen testfire at the end.
+duffys gunsmithing Thank you very much. "The older gentlemen", he wont hear the end of this!
Indeed, unfortunately US laws make the modular design extraordinarily expensive, as each segment requires a separate serial no. and permit.
+Sonic Silencers I wonder how Silencerco got around that with their modular shotgun suppressor? (the Salvo 12)
Rugged Suppressors as well.
You're completely wrong Duffy. Silencers are legal in 40 states.
@Paul I think Duffy meant to say the Brand Sonic Silencer is not available to the US market. Not that we can't own them here in the States.
When they threaded the barrel, I didn't see them check the concentricity of the bore...
That is not the proper way. You cannot count on the bore being in the center of the barrel.
They had no problems with that so far, and youre not counting on anything here ofcures morden barrels are in center.
"and youre not counting on anything here of cures"
I don't know what that means. And I beg to differ that you can count on the bore being in the center of the barrel. Form what I understand, it being in the center is not the thing they (barrel manufacturers) worry about the most, it's that it's STRAIGHT. Also, from what I have read, modern barrels DO come with out of concentric bores.
Seth Watson
The threading shown in this clip is made on a barrel of recognized quality, in which the bore is both straight and concentric. However it is correct that there are barrels of lesser quality and manufacture, in which the bore may be excentric, and occasionally even slightly curved.
These barrels are controlled and centerede prior to threading. Furtheremore, all barrels are visually inspected after the threading. Concentricity (or excentricity) can, with experience, be determined by looking through the bore.
It is worth mentioning that less than 1 in 100 barrels are so poorly centerede that they require adjustment.
These statements, and the statistics, are based on well beyond 3000 mountings of rifles of varying manufacturer and quality.
As an added safety precaution, the diameter of the internal hole of the silencer is made 1 mm larger than the diameter of the caliber for which it is sold. Thus even if the bore should be excentric in such a slight degree that it is not apparently visible, the added diameter will allow for the projectile to clear the silencer.
Thank you for pointing this out for clarification.
Kind regards.
Ah. Very good, QC before the fact....
I need it for saiga niner...5.45 in ak 47 shape...
Silencer?
Spoon tan Silencer. ( en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silencer_(firearms) )
+Sonic Silencers he's trying to say you've probably never even seen a gun in real life and think silencers work like in the movies because you play too many video games.
whereas he's so smart he knows it's really a suppressor because no gun can be silent. lol
keep up the quality work guys, if I wasn't years into IT I'd be machining. really want to get a taig mill or even harbor freight lathe and mess around at home.
Yes, silencer. The guy who INVENTED it, Hiram Maxim, named it the silencer in his original patents and ads. It's a silencer first and foremost. "Suppressor" was a term adopted after the fact and not used by Maxim. People that try to correct others for calling it a silencer just look like fools who don't know the history of the item they're discussing. Try harder.
