About This Suppressor
The Dead Air Sandman-S is a stainless steel rifle suppressor for .30-calibre rifles up to .300 RUM. It has an MSRP of $999. Its Cobalt 6 baffles are welded into a 17-4 PH stainless core, so the stack is one piece inside the tube.
It mounts on Dead Air's quick-detach system, which goes on and off the muzzle device by hand. The front cap is a detachable R-Series part, so it can be swapped. Dead Air rates it to 4,200 ft-lb with no barrel-length restriction and lists it as full-auto rated. A muzzle device for each host is the usual extra.
If you're cross-shopping, the Rugged SurgeX has an MSRP of $1,290, reaches the same .300 RUM ceiling, and is modular at 9 and 6.5 inches with its mount fitted. The Griffin Armament EXPLORR .300 Taper Mount has an MSRP of $599.95 and weighs 10 ounces against this can's heavier stainless build. Of the three, the Sandman-S sits in the middle on price with a fixed length.
