Thunder Beast 22 Take Down - Gen 2

THUNDER BEAST 22 TAKE DOWN SUPPRESSOR (GEN 2) - USER-SERVICEABLE RIMFIRE SILENCER, .22 LR, .22 WMR, .17 HMR, 5.7x28

The Thunder Beast 22 Take Down Gen 2 is a user-serviceable rimfire suppressor for pistols and rifles chambered in .22 LR, .22 WMR, .17 HMR, 5.7x28, and similar calibers. At 4.8 inches long, 1 inch in diameter, and 4.8 ounces, it is one of the smaller and lighter rimfire suppressors available while still delivering 110-114 dB(A) at the shooter's ear on a .22 LR rifle. The baffle stack is 17-4 stainless steel to handle carbon buildup and heat from full-auto .22 LR fire and higher-pressure rounds like 5.7x28, while the Grade 9 titanium tube keeps overall weight down.

The Gen 2 is a redesign of the original 22 Take Down. TBAC reduced the length from 5.6 inches to 4.8 inches and the weight from 5.9 ounces to 4.8 ounces while maintaining the same suppression level on rifles. On semi-auto .22 LR pistols, the Gen 2 is approximately 1 dB quieter than the original. Gen 2 units can be identified by serial numbers above TD10000. 

• Length: 4.8" (Gen 2) vs. 5.6" (Gen 1)
• Weight: 4.8 oz (Gen 2) vs. 5.9 oz (Gen 1)
• Rifle suppression: same as Gen 1
• Pistol suppression: approximately 1 dB quieter on semi-auto .22 LR pistols

CAPITOL ARMORY'S OPINION

Previous Thunder Beast rimfire suppressors were not user-serviceable, which turned away a lot of high-volume shooters who needed to clean their cans regularly. The 22 Take Down fixed that problem, and the Gen 2 made it even better by shaving nearly an inch off the length and over an ounce off the weight without giving up any suppression on rifles. Sound performance is strong for a can this size, and it works well across the board on .22 LR rifles, pistols, .22 WMR, .17 HMR, and 5.7x28. The 1/2x28 threads fit most rimfire hosts without needing an adapter, and the keyed, labeled baffles mean reassembly after cleaning goes back together correctly every time, with an assembly tool included in the box. If you shoot rimfire regularly and want a TBAC-quality suppressor that you can actually take apart and clean, this is the one to look at.
