Look, the value here is clear. You get a suppressor that’s drop-in ready for hosts like the Ruger Mark IV or a 10/22 Takedown with a threaded barrel, requiring no special adapters or gunsmithing for basic setup. The hybrid build is a smart trade-off—titanium keeps the weight down for pistol use, while stainless steel baffles handle the carbon fouling and are easier to scrub clean. That said, pure titanium models exist but cost more, and all-aluminum options are lighter but less durable. This one splits the difference effectively.
Who It’s For
This suppressor is ideal for the practical shooter who wants to dip a toe into the NFA world without a massive investment. It’s perfect for .22 LR plinkers, small game hunters looking to reduce noise, and trainers who value hearing protection. If your primary hosts are common .22 pistols like the Taurus TX22 or rifles like the Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22, this can is a logical first choice. It ships to Missouri and compliant US states, making it a straightforward option for local enthusiasts.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The price is a major pro, undercutting many all-titanium competitors. User-serviceability is non-negotiable for rimfire, and it has it. The standard 1/2×28 thread means immediate compatibility with a huge array of firearms. Its weight of roughly 4.5 ounces won’t make a pistol feel overly front-heavy.
Cons: It’s not the absolute quietest can on the market—some dedicated designs with more internal volume may perform slightly better. The stainless baffles, while tough, add a bit more weight compared to an all-titanium core. For a pure rifle-only setup, you might find a longer, quieter model, but you’ll pay more for it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this suppressor compatible with .22 WMR or 5.7x28mm?
A: No. The OSS Rad 22 is specifically rated for .22 Long Rifle only. Using it on higher-pressure cartridges like .22 WMR or 5.7×28 is unsafe and will void any warranty.
Q: How difficult is it to clean?
A: It’s designed to be straightforward. The core assembly unscrews from the tube, allowing you to soak the stainless steel baffles in a solvent like CLR or an ultrasonic cleaner. The titanium tube just needs a wipe-down. Regular cleaning after a few hundred rounds prevents carbon lock-up.
Q: What is needed to purchase it?
A: Purchasing any suppressor requires filing ATF Form 4 through a licensed dealer (FFL/SOT), paying a $200 tax stamp, and passing a background check. The process includes fingerprinting and a photo. We handle the paperwork guidance, and the product is available at firearms-missouri.com for Missouri residents and nationwide.
