Title: Silencer Central 20-gauge Suppressor
Post by: mcw3734 on February 21, 2026, 01:20:37 AM
At the NWTF Convention last week I saw Silencer Central's new 20-gauge suppressor that can be used with TSS. But with notable limitations, like OK for #8 and larger, but not #9. And TSS cannot be shot with their Full choke.

I thought hard about it, but passed. In part because I just stocked up on a bunch of TSS #9. Maybe somebody here will take one for the team, do some tests and report out?

If Silencer Central was smart (I know they're reading this), they'd publish TSS #8 patters through their modified choke at 20-30-40 yards. That would go a long way towards selling it to this crowd, assuming the patters are acceptable. Just a suggestion SC...

Doesn't cut back the sound enough to be worth it.

1200$ and nearly a pound hanging off my gun, hard no!

You can get the best hearing amplifiers/noise cancelling ear protection for similar price.
