You might have heard ... Blackhawk! introduced a line of suppressors last summer, and American Rifleman's Joe Kurtenbach finally had the opportunity to put some rounds downrange using pistols outfitted with these cans. Three models were up for a test run during SHOT Show 2017's Range Day—the .22-cal. Pulse, the 9 mm Mini Boss and the .45-cal. Smoke Stack. Check them out in this week's NRA Gun Gear of the Week video, and for more, visit Blackhawk.com.
