New in box Surefire Socom556-SB2 suppressor for 5.56mm SBR rifles, part #
SOCOM556-SB2. The new compact and lightweight SureFire SOCOM556-SB2
Fast-Attach® suppressor is designed specifically for 5.56 rifles with
barrels shorter than 10 inches, or longer barrels firing unstable
ammunition (e.g. most unjacketed frangible and “green” ammunition). It
is a modified version of the SOCOM556RC, the most advanced 5.56 rifle
suppressor ever made, which was selected by US Special Operations
Command as first among all competitors in the most extensive and
rigorous suppressor evaluation in history, which covered all aspects of
suppressor performance. Constructed of advanced high-temperature alloys
and stainless steel, the SOCOM556-SB2 features a larger bore to minimize
the probability of baffle strikes due to unstable projectiles, a common
issue with ultra-short-barreled weapons and some types of unjacketed
frangible and “green” ammunition. Advanced internal venting reduces back
pressure, thereby reducing the suppressed cyclic rate and gas blowback
on the operator. The new design also includes an integrated blast shield
in the back section and computer controlled welding that increases
durability. The patent-pending front-plate design, along with
proprietary improvement in gas-flow dynamics, nearly eliminates
first-round flash, a true technological breakthrough in this area. It
also attenuates noise and dust signatures to an unprecedented degree. A
new indexing system means this suppressor mounts securely to a SureFire
muzzle brake or flash hider even more solidly than our previous models
and is easier to remove after extended firing since the index tab is in a
low carbon-buildup area. Like all SureFire Fast-Attach models, the
SOCOM556-SB2 produces minimal, consistent shift in point of impact
compared with an unsuppressed weapon.
