3D printed supressors in the US

[Simon NZ]

After all the failed experiments and modified iterations it looks easy.
US will always be the leader in hunting products. Charlie don't surf or hunt so the Alibaba suppliers can only copy.

similar process to plastic 3d printing but on a different level completely using lasers to melt the metal and lay down each layer, amazing facility and technology.

I respectfully disagree - I think there's way more relevant hunting innovation coming from NZ / Europe.

Oceania defence has been doing this for a long time.

You beat me to it, I’ve had an inconnel Oceania Defence Silencer for many years and many thousands of rounds.

A friend of mine works for Renishaw in the UK where the machines in the video are made.

I respectfully disagree - I think there's way more relevant hunting innovation coming from NZ (at a real-world price point).

An important clarification if you will permit, please.

NZ has a low exchange rate, small work shops put out some good stuff but US has 50 times the market with double the spending power at the loading bay.

 

[suburban bushwacker]

it’s all over for every other method of manufacture.
i’ve got a OD I was corrected i thought it was 180g, its 165g.

very soon Svemko will release an even quieter one 40db or better and everyone else will be left scratching their……

Amazons Bezos and been spending millions on Prometheus Ai engineering hack. Anyone can enter desired results and it calculates the physics creates the code.
Chinese printers are also working fine tuning Ai assistance.
To tune a nozzle/filament to get a desired fit or finish is alot of work and material and persistence. Majority of advice is not refined for variables though so I don't know how the Ai can learn it.
Probably print one and see the faults and adjust perfectly sometime soon.
Also fast iteration development instead of a big monolithic corporation....the hierarchy of ego and biased management is deleted and the end users develop products. Able to fine tune for end use more easily.

When robots can make robots that will be the changer so engineers and tinkerers wanting something to do can have access to competitive production in their own countries instead of outsourcing.

Outsourcing? Its not all its cracked up to be, Alibaba is full of copies of the best products. Germany has basically committed voluntary seppuku this way. maybe they figured out they were going to copy them so gave them the blueprints.
There are hunting apparel brands simply rebranding Alibaba copies in both Aussie and NZ

not sure if true, but once got told the difference between a branded product and a copy made in china was a thin dividing curtain between the two manufacturing lines.
