Where to start

How to Choose a YHM Suppressor

Yankee Hill Machine (YHM) was founded in 1951 and is based in Easthampton, Massachusetts. Its suppressors are built around a few ideas: 17-4 stainless steel construction, a Cobalt 6 blast baffle on the centerfire rifle cans, full-auto ratings on most models, and the industry-standard 1.375x24 HUB thread on the back so you can choose your mount. YHM backs its products with a lifetime manufacturer's warranty.

Pick the job first, then the mount:

5.56: the Fat Cat (shortest), Turbo T3 (quietest) and Turbo K-RB (compact and lightest).
.30 cal: the Resonator R2 for the most suppression and the Resonator K for less length. Both handle .17 HMR through .300 RUM.
.338 and 8.6 BLK: the Bad Larry.
9mm and .45: the R9 and R45 for subguns, PCCs and rifles (and pistols with a booster), and the Sidewinder M2 for 9mm pistols.
Rimfire: the Phantom .22.
Shotgun: the Victra-12 and Victra-20.
Mounts: most YHM rifle cans ship with either a Phantom Q.D. or an sRx quick-detach setup, and the HUB rear lets you swap to direct thread, 3-lug or other brands' mounts.

If you're shopping for a Turbo K, Turbo T2, Nitro N20 or the original Sidewinder, those are now YHM legacy models. The current 5.56 cans are the Fat Cat, Turbo T3 and Turbo K-RB, and the current 9mm cans are the R9 and Sidewinder M2.

Mounting

YHM Mount Systems: HUB, Phantom Q.D., sRx and Direct Thread

Every current YHM centerfire rifle and multi-caliber suppressor (Fat Cat, Turbo T3, Turbo K-RB, Resonator K, Resonator R2, Bad Larry, R9 and R45) has a 1.375x24 HUB thread on the back. The mount threads into that HUB rear, so you can change how the suppressor attaches without changing the suppressor. What ships in the box depends on the model:

Mount	How it works	Ships on	Also fits
Phantom Q.D.	YHM's original quick-detach system. A Phantom Q.D. adapter in the suppressor locks onto a Phantom Q.D. flash hider or muzzle brake on the barrel.	Turbo T3, Turbo K-RB, Resonator K, Resonator R2	Any HUB suppressor, with the Phantom Q.D. Adapter or Kurz Q.D. Adapter
sRx	Low-profile quick-detach with a taper seal in front of the threads. No timing or shims.	Fat Cat	Any HUB suppressor, with the sRx Q.D. Adapter
Direct thread	A HUB adapter that threads straight onto the barrel	R9 (1/2x28), R45 and Bad Larry (5/8x24)	Any HUB suppressor, with the Direct Thread HUB Mount
HD 3-Lug	HK-style tri-lug mount that threads into the HUB rear	None; sold separately	R9 on 9mm and subsonic 300 BLK
Nielsen booster	Spring-loaded booster for tilting-barrel pistols	Sidewinder M2 (built in)	R9 and R45, with the Nielsen Booster Assembly
Victra choke-thread mount	Threads into the shotgun's factory choke threads	None; sold separately by shotgun brand	Victra-12 and Victra-20 (each gauge has its own mounts)

Phantom Q.D.

Phantom Q.D. is the mount YHM has used since 2005. The Phantom Q.D. Adapter threads into the suppressor's HUB rear, and the suppressor locks onto a Phantom Q.D. muzzle device on your barrel: the Phantom Q.D. Flash Hider, the Phantom Q.D. Muzzle Brake, or the shorter Mini Phantom Q.D. Muzzle Brake (1.6 in.) and Mini Phantom Q.D. Flash Hider (2.125 in.). The Turbo T3, Turbo K-RB, Resonator K and Resonator R2 ship with the adapter and one Phantom Q.D. device.

The brakes come with shims for timing. Torque the Phantom Q.D. flash hider to 20 to 30 ft-lbs, and don't use crush or peel washers. The Kurz Q.D. Adapter replaces the standard adapter to shorten the setup: it's 0.25 in. long, compared with 0.875 in. for the standard Phantom Q.D. adapter. The Kurz Ti Q.D. Adapter is the lighter titanium version.

The Phantom Q.D. and Mini Phantom flash hiders don't fit YHM's older Phantom 5.56 suppressors or the first-generation Turbo. Bad Larry takes Phantom Q.D. and sRx devices in 5/8x24, but not YHM's older 3702 and 3802 series Q.D. mounts.

sRx

sRx is YHM's newer, low-profile quick-detach system. The sRx Q.D. Adapter threads into the HUB rear, adds 0.6 in. and 1.88 oz, and locks onto an sRx muzzle device with an internal taper seal in front of the threads. That seal keeps gas and carbon off the threads and gives consistent lockup, and the devices don't need timing or shims. The Fat Cat ships with the sRx adapter and an sRx 1/2x28 mini muzzle brake. We carry the sRx Flash Hider and sRx Muzzle Brake (2.3 in. each, in 1/2x28 and 5/8x24), plus the sRx Blast Deflector, which locks onto any sRx device to push blast forward when you shoot without the suppressor.

Direct thread and 3-lug

The R9 ships with a 1/2x28 direct thread HUB adapter, and the R45 and Bad Larry ship with 5/8x24. Our Direct Thread HUB Mount (1.7 oz) converts any HUB suppressor to direct thread for a dedicated rifle. For 9mm subguns with tri-lug barrels, the HD 3-Lug HUB Adapter threads into the R9 and is full-auto rated for 9mm and subsonic 300 BLK.

Other brands' HUB mounts

Because the rear is standard 1.375x24, YHM suppressors also take third-party HUB mounts, so you can match the mounts already on your rifles. Popular options we carry:

Pistols

To run an R9 or R45 on a tilting-barrel pistol, swap its direct thread adapter for the Nielsen Booster Assembly and add a piston that matches your barrel thread. The booster takes YHM, SilencerCo and Rugged pistons. The Sidewinder M2 has its own booster and uses the same standard Nielsen Piston, which also fits the booster assembly. Pistons made for the original Sidewinder don't fit the booster assembly, and the Nielsen piston doesn't fit the original Sidewinder.

Shotguns

The Victra mounts thread into your shotgun's factory choke threads and don't choke the shot. The choke sits in the front cap of the suppressor instead. Each mount is made for a specific shotgun brand, and the Victra-20 uses its own 20 gauge mounts. Our Victra-12 Mount comes in Remington; Browning Invector, Mossberg 500 and Winchester; Benelli Crio Plus; Beretta Optima HP; Beretta/Benelli Mobil; and Browning Invector Plus patterns.

5.56 NATO

YHM 5.56 Suppressors: Fat Cat, Turbo T3 and Turbo K-RB

All three are 17-4 stainless steel with a Cobalt 6 blast baffle, full-auto rated, HUB-threaded, and rated for 5.56 NATO on barrels as short as 10 in. The Turbo T3 and Turbo K-RB ship on Phantom Q.D.; the Fat Cat ships on sRx. Shop all 5.56 suppressors.

YHM Fat Cat

The Fat Cat is the shortest YHM 5.56 suppressor. Its 1.94 in. diameter gives it more internal volume than a slimmer can of the same length, which lowers the tone, and its baffle geometry is designed to cut blowback.

It ships with the sRx Q.D. adapter, an sRx 1/2x28 mini muzzle brake and two wrenches, and you can choose a standard end cap or the Cat's Ass end cap. It's a full inch shorter than the legacy Turbo K with its adapter. The Fat Cat, Turbo T3 and Turbo K-RB were all NTOA member tested and recommended in 2023.

What reviewers found

The Firearm Blog: Ran it on an 11.5 in. KAC SR-15 and liked the compact size, the build quality and the reduced blowback. In a later head-to-head, the Fat Cat and Turbo K-RB sounded nearly identical on both an 11.5 in. and a 14.5 in. host. Read the review · Read the comparison

Coldboremiracle: Tested it on a Savage 12 in .223, several ARs and a Desert Tech WLVRN and was very pleased with the suppression. He noted a slight increase in bolt speed on direct impingement ARs, which the WLVRN's adjustable gas handled. Read the review

Shop the YHM Fat Cat →

YHM Turbo T3

The Turbo T3 is the quietest YHM 5.56 suppressor, built to reduce blowback on AR-15s. Pick it when you want the most suppression from a YHM 5.56 can and can accept the extra length.

It ships with a 1/2x28 Phantom Q.D. muzzle brake or flash hider, the Phantom Q.D. adapter and two wrenches. It's also one of the lower-priced 5.56 suppressors we carry.

What reviewers found

Coldboremiracle: Ran it on a 16 in. Aero Precision AR and a 20 in. Desert Tech WLVRN. He wrote that the sharpness of the report was replaced by a hiss, and liked how easy the Phantom Q.D. mount was to swap between rifles. He saw more gas at the ejection port on the AR, as you'd expect with most suppressors. Read the review

The Firearm Blog: In a four-can YHM comparison, the Turbo T3 stood out on the 11.5 in. host. Read the comparison

Shop the YHM Turbo T3 →

YHM Turbo K-RB

The Turbo K-RB is the compact Turbo, with a reduced blowback design and the lightest weight of the YHM 5.56 cans. The tubeless design keeps it at 8.7 oz before the mount.

It ships with the 1/2x28 Phantom Q.D. adapter, a Phantom Q.D. flash hider or muzzle brake, and two wrenches. It's also one of the lowest-priced 5.56 suppressors we carry.

What reviewers found

The Firearm Blog: Compared it with the Fat Cat, Turbo T3 and the legacy Turbo K. The K-RB's reduced back pressure design is meant to keep cycling close to normal, unlike the original Turbo K, and the reviewer found it sounded nearly identical to the Fat Cat. Read the comparison

Shop the YHM Turbo K-RB →

Fat Cat, Turbo T3 or Turbo K-RB?

When length matters most, the Fat Cat or Turbo K-RB. The Fat Cat is shorter with its mount (4.5 in. vs 5.5 in.); the K-RB is lighter and slimmer. When suppression matters most, the Turbo T3 has the lowest sound rating of the three (134 dB). Your mount choice matters too: pick the Fat Cat if you want sRx, or a Turbo if your rifles already wear Phantom Q.D. devices.

.30 caliber

YHM .30 Cal Suppressors: Resonator R2 and Resonator K

Both Resonators are tubeless 17-4 stainless steel with a Cobalt 6 blast baffle, full-auto rated, and rated for rifle calibers from .17 HMR through .300 RUM. Both ship with the Phantom Q.D. adapter, a 5/8x24 Phantom Q.D. muzzle brake and two wrenches. Minimum barrel lengths are the same for both: 7.5 in. for 300 BLK, 10 in. for 5.56, 6.8 SPC and 7.62x39, 10.5 in. for .308, and 20 in. for .300 Win Mag and .300 RUM. Shop all .30 cal suppressors.

YHM Resonator R2

The Resonator R2 is the full-size Resonator and the one we'd pick for a single .30 cal can that covers everything from a 300 BLK SBR to a .300 Win Mag hunting rifle.

Pick the R2 over the Resonator K if suppression matters more than length. It's about 2.2 in. longer and 3.6 oz heavier with the mount.

Shop the YHM Resonator R2 →

YHM Resonator K

The Resonator K is the compact Resonator, for .308 SBRs, short hunting rifles and anywhere length counts. Its end cap is also designed to reduce flash.

Rated levels at the shooter's ear and the muzzle: 137 and 145 dB on .308, 142 and 147 dB on 300 BLK, and 150 and 153 dB on 5.56.

What reviewers found

PEW Science: Tested it on a 20 in. .308 Savage (SSS.6.32) and on a subsonic 300 BLK Q Mini Fix (SSS.6.30). PEW Science called it a very compact, relatively lightweight and durable .30 rifle suppressor, and noted that it suppresses less than larger .30 cal suppressors.

.338 and large bore

YHM Bad Larry .338 Suppressor

YHM Bad Larry

Bad Larry is YHM's .338 suppressor for long-range rifles, big game and 8.6 BLK. It also runs .300 Win Mag, .308 and 5.56, so it can cover several rifles.

It ships with a 5/8x24 direct thread HUB adapter and two wrenches, and takes all YHM HUB accessories. Minimum barrel lengths are 20 in. for .338 Lapua and .300 Win Mag, 10.5 in. for .308 and 10 in. for 5.56.

What reviewers found

The Firearm Blog: First shots were on subsonic 300 BLK, where the reviewer found it very quiet, with a slightly higher, sharper tone than similar .30 cal cans, and on par with market leaders for 300 BLK. Read the review

9mm, .45 and multi-caliber

YHM 9mm and .45 Suppressors: R9, R45 and Sidewinder M2

The R9 and R45 are 17-4 stainless steel cans with a HUB rear, built for subguns, PCCs and rifles, and for pistols with the Nielsen booster. The Sidewinder M2 is a lighter, user-serviceable pistol suppressor with its own booster. Shop all pistol suppressors and multi-caliber suppressors.

YHM R9

The R9 is built for high-volume 9mm, especially subguns and SBRs, and it also handles 300 BLK and .308 on longer barrels. It's one of the lowest-priced pistol-caliber suppressors we carry.

It ships with a 1/2x28 direct thread HUB adapter and two wrenches. Minimum barrel lengths are 7.5 in. for 300 BLK and 16 in. for .308, 350 Legend, 6.5 Grendel and 5.56. Add the Nielsen Booster Assembly for pistols or the HD 3-Lug HUB Adapter for tri-lug subguns. Its full-auto rating is limited, so check the manual before running it on a machine gun.

What reviewers found

Coldboremiracle: Ran it on a 9mm pistol with a Nielsen booster and on rifles from 5.56 to .308 and 6mm GT, switching between direct thread and a Q.D. mount. He called it multi-caliber, adaptable and tough. Read the review

Shop the YHM R9 →

YHM R45

The R45 is the most versatile YHM suppressor, rated for calibers from .17 HMR up to .45-70 Government. It's one can for a .45 ACP pistol, a 300 BLK SBR and a big-bore lever gun.

It ships with a 5/8x24 direct thread mount and two wrenches. Minimum barrel lengths are 7.5 in. for 300 BLK and 16 in. for .308 and 5.56. Add the Nielsen Booster Assembly for .45 pistols. It's also one of the lower-priced pistol-caliber suppressors we carry.

What reviewers found

The Firearm Blog: Tested it on a Beretta M9A3 with subsonic 9mm and a Marlin 1895 in .45-70 with subsonic loads. It was noticeably quieter than the R9 on 9mm, and the reviewer liked its range from .45 ACP to .45-70. Its 1.56 in. diameter blocks standard-height pistol sights. Read the review

Shop the YHM R45 →

YHM Sidewinder M2

The Sidewinder M2 is YHM's 9mm pistol suppressor. It's aluminum and stainless, so it's light, and you can take out the baffles and the booster for cleaning with the included tool.

It uses the industry's standard Nielsen piston, and the rear cap lets you swap pistons without tools. Ten index points let you adjust point of impact while the booster stays on the pistol. For a fixed-barrel 9mm, the R9 is the simpler option.

Shop the YHM Sidewinder M2 →

R9, R45 or Sidewinder M2?

For a 9mm subgun, PCC or SBR, the R9. For .45 ACP, or one can across a pistol, 300 BLK and a .45-70, the R45. For a 9mm pistol you'll carry or shoot often, the Sidewinder M2: it's lighter and you can clean it yourself. The R9 and R45 aren't user-serviceable.

Rimfire

YHM Phantom .22 Rimfire Suppressor

YHM Phantom .22

The Phantom .22 is YHM's rimfire suppressor for pistols and rifles, and it handles cartridges up to 5.7x28 while weighing 4 oz.

The baffles interlock and have indexing tabs so they go back together the right way, and the rear of the blast chamber doubles as the tool for removing the muzzle cap. A stainless steel thread insert protects the mounting threads. There's no minimum barrel length for .22 LR; .22 Mag, .17 HMR and 5.7x28 need 10 in. Shop all rimfire suppressors.

Shotgun

YHM Shotgun Suppressors: Victra-12 and Victra-20

Both Victras are modular 7075 aluminum and 17-4 stainless steel suppressors that mount to your shotgun's factory choke threads (mounts sold separately). You change the length with assembly rods, and the choke sits in the front of the suppressor. Barrel and shell limits are the same for both: 2.75 in. shells on 7.5 in. or longer barrels, 3 in. shells on 10 in. or longer, and 3.5 in. shells on 16 in. or longer.

Both are designed for wadded shot and slugs; cup-style wads work best. Don't shoot high-density shot (Hevi-Shot, Federal TSS or other tungsten or bismuth loads) or slugs through a full or turkey choke. Shop all shotgun suppressors.

YHM Victra-12

The Victra-12 is a modular 12 gauge suppressor for hunting, sport shooting and home defense. It's one of only a few 12 gauge suppressors on the market, and one of a handful we carry. Run it at 12 in. for the most suppression, or shorten it to 10, 8 or 6 in. with rod kits.

It comes with two 12 in. assembly rods, an improved cylinder choke and a multi-use wrench. You'll also need a 5/32 in. Allen wrench and a Victra-12 Mount for your shotgun. Add Victra-12 Chokes to change your pattern, and Victra Assembly Rods to shorten it.

What reviewers found

American Rifleman: Tested it at 12 in. on a Benelli Nova 3 and at 6 in. on a Mossberg 590S. The pattern wasn't perceptibly affected at full length and tightened when shortened, because the Victra choke was tighter than the shotgun's. The reviewer liked how simple it is to take apart and saw minimal fouling after about 100 shots. Read the review

Gears of Guns: Fired well over 500 rounds of target loads, buckshot and slugs on a Mossberg 500. The reviewer would recommend it for its sound reduction, modularity and durability, and noted that the choke-thread mount isn't quick-detach. Read the review

Shop the YHM Victra-12 →

YHM Victra-20

The Victra-20 brings the Victra design to 20 gauge. It's shorter and lighter than the Victra-12 and goes down to a 4 in. configuration. It's the only 20 gauge suppressor we carry.

Gauge: 20, shells up to 3.5 in. | Length: 10.4 in. (full) to 4.4 in. | Weight: 22 oz full; 12 oz at 4 in. | Size: 1.95 in. wide, 2.7 in. tall | Material: 7075 aluminum and 17-4 PH stainless | Sound rating: 132 dB at the shooter's ear (full); 138 dB at 4 in.

It comes with two 10 in. assembly rods, an improved cylinder choke and two multi-use wrenches. Rod kits shorten it to 8, 6 or 4 in. It needs a Victra-20 mount for your shotgun, not a Victra-12 mount. Don't use Flitecontrol, Versatite or similar wads, which can damage it.

FAQ

YHM Suppressor FAQ

What is the best YHM suppressor?

It depends on the gun. For a short AR, the Fat Cat or Turbo K-RB. For the quietest 5.56, the Turbo T3. For one .30 cal can on several rifles, the Resonator R2. For .338 Lapua or 8.6 BLK, the Bad Larry. For a 9mm subgun or PCC, the R9. For .45 ACP through .45-70, the R45. For a 9mm pistol, the Sidewinder M2. For rimfire, the Phantom .22. For shotguns, the Victra-12 or Victra-20.

What is the best budget YHM suppressor?

The Turbo K-RB is one of the lowest-priced 5.56 suppressors we carry, and the R9 is one of the lowest-priced pistol-caliber suppressors we carry.

What is the difference between YHM Phantom Q.D. and sRx?

Both are quick-detach systems that thread into a HUB suppressor. Phantom Q.D. is YHM's original system: the suppressor locks onto a Phantom flash hider or brake, which you time with shims. sRx is lower profile, seals on a taper in front of the threads to keep carbon off them, and needs no timing or shims. The Turbo and Resonator cans ship on Phantom Q.D.; the Fat Cat ships on sRx.

Can I use other brands' mounts on a YHM suppressor?

Yes. The Fat Cat, Turbo T3, Turbo K-RB, Resonator K, Resonator R2, Bad Larry, R9 and R45 all have a 1.375x24 HUB rear, so they take HUB mounts like the SilencerCo Bravo ASR, Dead Air Key-Mo and Xeno, Q Plan-B and Rugged RUM.

Which YHM suppressors are full-auto rated?

The Fat Cat, Turbo T3, Turbo K-RB, Resonator K, Resonator R2, Bad Larry, Sidewinder M2 and Victra-12. The R9 and R45 have a limited full-auto rating, so check the manual first.

Can I use a YHM R9 or R45 on a pistol?

Yes. Replace the direct thread adapter with the YHM Nielsen Booster Assembly and add a piston that matches your barrel thread. The booster takes YHM, SilencerCo and Rugged pistons.

What is the difference between the Resonator K and Resonator R2?
