New(ish) from Ruger: Silent-SR .22 Can

By Tyler Kee

Say what you will about the ATF, the NFA, and the newly released 41P. No seriously, say it. I hate it too, but there’s no denying that the silencer business is taking off. Ruger is the most recent gun manufacturer to jump on the bus, and they’ve started with arguably the best entry to silencers out there, the venerable .22 can. We posted about the can earlier this month when it leaked to the public, but Dan and I finally had a chance to shoot it attached to Ruger’s very popular silencer host, the 22/45 Lite…

The new can from Ruger is designed to work on both .22 LR and .22 WMR as well as .17 HMR hosts on any barrel length, semi or full auto. That about covers all the needs of a dedicated .22 can, save for the big one, serviceability. As anybody who has broken a 10/22 apart can tell you, rimfire ammo is nasty stuff, and the can on the end is not immune to the junk flying out the barrel.
