Rugged Suppressors Mustang 22 - Shooting Down The Competition!

[@nfareview]

ATTN: KZbin IS SHUTTING DOWN ALL GUN CHANNELS! I have moved over to Rumble. Others are leaving KZbin in droves as well. All my NEW content is being posted on Rumble and all my old content is being sync'd by Rumble and stored on their servers for preservation. My channel is easy to find, just search for "NFA Review" in the search bar and you can find me and subscribe! KZbin has given me 2 strikes so far on videos that weren't out during their new policy change. In addition they are deleting 5-6 videos of mine a week! They are doing the same to other Gun Channels and even the manufacturers that have channels. It's time we take our viewership over to Rumble! No more scrolling and watching non gun related content while we are logged in, no more fresh content, no more support. They don't want us here and Rumble has extended open arms to us and other free thinkers who aren't afraid to call BS on how far society has fallen! See ya on Rumble! - Adam

Ehhhh I'm happy with my oculus. I'll happily deal with the extra weight for the convenience of easy cleaning with a wet tumbler. Great video as always though.

[@ultrasuperbro5643]

That is the best demonstration of the report of a suppressor I have ever seen. I just bought the new Mustang 22 and am waiting for the stamp.

[@formerpilgrim4934]

NICE! I think I noticed a little bit of ‘first round pop’, but it’s nowhere near as bad as my Ryder A. Speaking of which, I have learned to try to only use plated bullets, as lead really sticks to the baffles. But if you want that 3 ounce can, you’re going to have to have aluminum baffles.

[@ZERO_42069]

I just bought one today, cant wait to get it approved

[@gsyoung54]

I have a couple of "old" AAC Element II's, SOTA at the time and for years. Shot it the other day along with my Oculus, Ruger SR, DA Mask, Liberty Regulator and a few others. The Element II, with its lightweight construction, is still a hell of a performer. The others were a tiny bit quieter at the ear but from 20 yards away no one there could really tell the difference between any of them. Of course I'll be getting one of these!

[@alecphillips53]

Great video

[@TheRollingTrip]

Meh, I’d rather have another Oculus…….hopefully that won’t be discontinued. I do have an all aluminum suppressor that I periodically clean in my dry media vibratory cleaner, same as my brass for reloading. It gets them clean enough.

[@Zer0Morph]

Amazing video!

[@Tacteyecool]

rugged mustang vs oculus? If you could only have 1 .22 can? I'm leaning towards the stainless steel...

[@Friedbrain11]

Titanium and aluminum have a problem that I hope the coating will stop from happening. Otherwise, I like that suppressor.

[@pauljones9746]

And what problem is that?

[@Friedbrain11]

@@pauljones9746 Galvanic action. The aircraft manufacturers had to deal with it by coating the aluminum to prevent the problem.

[@pauljones9746]

@@Friedbrain11 Maybe early on but most titanium these days is not truly 100% titanium. Its a Titanium alloy. Either 3AL/2.5V or 6AL/4V which has Aluminum and vanadium mixed in with it.

[@Friedbrain11]

Those alloys are made for the machining process. The galvanic action still occurs. Hence the coatings are still needed. I have machined pure and alloy titanium and even the alloys are still a bit of pain in the rear LOL.

[@AlexanderOster]

Love my Oculus. Have been thinking about a second 22 can. Not sure what the difference really is here, but maybe it would be a second choice just to not have two of the same.

[@kaleb-olson]

Seems like just the construction material and corresponding weight?

[@granite6196]

Just bought one for a dedicated 22 upper

[@trentmorrison6074]

I wish you had DB readings, i kinda am trying to pick a suppressor for the first time and well, im kinda going for a oddball type. One thats short and effective. Right know im choosing betwee the aeris, armstac cover, and this one 4 inch monocore, forgot the name of it and then the switch back. If you can find db readings id apretiate it.

[@nfareview]

I posted it in the video. 113. The Mustang will outperform the suppressors you mentioned.

[@brassbear4234]

Can you do a Oculas vs Mustang video?

[@Tacteyecool]

Nice

[@stephanieroberts1394]

Would this work reliably on a ruger lcp II .22

[@Logan0o]

Other then their weigh difference i wonder how this stacks up to the oculus

[@letsgobrandon416]

I definitely need to get one of these! - Still have my first 22 can in jail. I am all for suppressors coming in colors other than black. And I'm quite a fan of bare naked metal suppressors. However, I'm really struggling with this FDE craze that is sweeping the suppressor market. I like FDE on guns and gear, but it just makes the suppressor look like turd.

[@prepperpov5852]

How long has it been so far for you? I bought mine on 3/10/21 and the ATF cashed the check on 3/25/21, so basically 7 months since purchase or 6.5 months since the ATF cashed the check. OSS HX-QD 556 bought as an individual through the SilencerShop Kiosk.

[@icantsaywhat]

NFA Review. Do you have an recommendation for a small lightweight suppressor for the tomcat 3032 with the threaded barrel. When I was originally looking at the gun I was looking at a small almost keychain sized suppressor. I cannot however find the article I was reading to see if it was a good suppressor as it’s been quite a while since I looked at it originally. Any help would be appreciated thank you very much. If anyone else has any suggestions I am open to them as well. Thanks guys

[@spys0ldier]

Gemtech/GSL pill bottle. Not gonna be a range toy unless you wanna keep replacing wipes. Designed for covert use.

[@icantsaywhat]

@@spys0ldier thank you. But you are correct I was looking for something that doesn’t have wipes as I want it just to play with at the range. 5hanks for the information

[@cri8tor]

After we figure out how to make suppressors more reasonably priced, then we can do the same for ammo. Cheers

[@zuredarkworld]

what optic did you have on your 22/45?

[@jabara572]

How does this directly compare to the occulus? Is it quieter, louder? I might go for it if it's quieter or the same as occulus, but if it's not...no way.

[@gsyoung54]

The Rugged website has sound levels for both suppressors. The Mustang is only a few fractions of opne dB quieter than the Occulus, nothing that the human ear could tell. You usually need at least 3-4 dB difference to hear any change, and from 20 yards away they pretty much all sound the same.

[@wcpgorkda2003]

Just bought one for my bobcat host. Eform’d it

[@gunmonkey6545]

Thanks for the video. I was skeptical of their claim to have eliminated first round pop and it certainly did in the K configuration on the pistol. It’s really not a big deal, considering they all do but I got a little too excited that someone had discovered a secret. FYI, I recently shot the CGS Siren and the first round pop was hardly noticeable.

[@Outdoorsmanlife88]

I need that

[@williamsimmons2095]

I want to hear it on a bolt action.

[@haroldsingh7486]

Finally 😆👍

[@pcs3576]

Rated for 17hmr?

[@Ruggedsuppressors]

It's not, but the Oculus22 is.

[@pcs3576]

Ive got the occulus and its the best 22 suppressor…runs cleaner than the other big names out there.

[@jeffmofo5013]

Why don't you run a DB meter near the microphone? And show the results on camera?

[@nfareview]

I have in the past. It takes way too much time and the results were always close to what the manufacturer claimed. There are other T&E services that offer meter data if that's all you're looking for. I like to cover the materials, takedown, special features and then shoot it. My format is what it is because it covers the product in the most complete and concise way possible. Purchasing and calibrating a $10,000 meter only to get numbers close to the manufacture is a waste of my time. I can meter the same gun with the same suppressor with the same ammo and get different numbers on different days. The fact is, unless the suppressor was made in a garage by a fly by night company, they all pretty much sound good these days.

[@TheGreatDaneR]

PewScience is the answer.

[@gsyoung54]

"Someone" needs to develop a quiet plastic bolt...

[@Buddha23Fett]

That sounds like an explosion waiting to happen

[@goateecusbilly1823]

Rubber pad maybe?

[@Buddha23Fett]

The most effective thing I’ve seen to quiet the bolt on a gun is by making it bolt action.

[@ronin223]

Aluminum baffles. Hard pass.

[@pauljones9746]

Curious... What happens to titanium with water??

[@Ruggedsuppressors]

There aren't any issues with shooting the Mustang22 wet.

[@nonyabuisness]

I clean my sparrow with 5.7x28 every 1000rd or so. No more mess

[@Statikleoscamming]

first

[@MurderBallad]

Quieter? How? Same design. 3+ ounces lighter but not rated for anything over 22lr and it’s the same price which is silly.

[@FlyingNDriving]

Reviewing so many cans, you'd think you invest in a decibel meter by now

[@nfareview]

I did it 8+ years ago. Look it up. It added nothing to the reviews. We always got the claimed manufacturers numbers. Covering the mounting options, features, specs, and tone is more important.

[@МихаилРозенсон-п7с]

Aplodisments!!!

[@crawford323]

Geez, you can buy a decent gun for that kind of money. What drives the prices up on suppressors?

[@korbyn49]

There is a lot of paperwork, long wait times for paperwork approval, and a $200 tax per item, so the customer base for silencers wants an extremely effective and durable product with an unconditional lifetime warranty. Since there are many barriers to ownership of a silencer, people want to know they will have risk free ownership after they jump through all the hoops. Hence higher prices due to extremely high quality materials, manufacturing, and warranties.

[@frankmorabito17]

Lost me at plastic tool

[@nfareview]

Why? Did you not understand it’s non marring. You don’t need a metal tool to remove the endcap lol. ✌️

[@gsyoung54]

You forgot a period at the end of your sentence too.

[@TheGreatDaneR]

It might be delerin, not sure, but it's high quality and completely sufficient.

[@Ruggedsuppressors]

@@TheGreatDaneR It is delrin. We've tested metal end cap tools but found that delrin held up more than enough, without scratching the paint. If for some reason anyone has an issue with their tool wearing down, we'll replace it under our Unconditional Lifetime Warranty.
