ATF Agents Discussed New Suppressors
on Site They Thought was Private

Why do ATF agents need new suppressors for their ARs? No one was willing to answer this simple question, not the private company making the silencers and certainly not the ATF.

However, ATF agents themselves were discussing the new silencers on a website they falsely believed was private.

"We are getting new suppressors. They are currently being rolled out to the field," one ATF agent wrote on the ATF Association Facebook page, which only allows current and former ATF personnel to join.

Another commenter on the same page said the ATF's new suppressors are made by HUXWRX Safety Co., and that they are "upper lever" and "good cans."

The new HUXWRX suppressors can cost from $1,200 to $1,300 a piece, according to the company's website.

The HUXWRX Safety Co. (formerly OSS Suppressors) did not want to talk either. Company staffers did not respond to messages left on their website, emails or messages left for their spokesperson. .....
