New Suppressors: YHM R9 – YHM Nitro N20 – YHM Turbo Integral

Hot off the heels of their latest suppressor announcement – the Resonator K, Yankee Hill Machine has rolled out three additional releases that we hope to get our hands on at the 2020 SHOT Show. The YHM R9, the YHM Nitro N20 and the YHM Turbo Integral 5.56mm AR-15 upper Receiver all fit in to different categories host, price point and functional categories. Let’s take a look.

First, YHM has turned their popular Turbo T2 silencer into a complete 5.56mm integral AR-15 upper system. The whole package is pinned and welded to a 16” overall length, avoiding the need for a short barreled rifle registration and $200 tax stamp.

Next up we have the YHM R9 9mm silencer. Built for 9mm pistol caliber carbines, the R9 can pull triple duty as a three lug mount suppressor, a pistol suppressor (with a booster module) and a rifle suppressor up to .308Win at certain barrel lengths. Think of the R9 as a Turbo/Resonator hybrid with a pistol caliber kick.

And last but not least, we have the Nitro N20 modular that can be run on almost any caliber up to .308Win (check your barrel length), including three-lug mount capability, piston mounts for pistol hosts and direct thread attachments. In addition, the Nitro N20 has a modular forward section that allows it to be run in either short or long configurations.

We’ll bring you more from Next week’s SHOT Show coverage. Stay tuned.

And don’t forget to check out TFB’s weekly series Silencer Saturday.

When YHM engineers set out to make a suppressor, they look far beyond that of just making the acclaimed caliber quieter. They make it work across the board so that you, the shooter, can enjoy versatility across your entire arsenal all at a budget friendly price while maintaining that rugged durability you’ve come to expect from YHM®. This was the intent with the R9™ 9mm. The primary goal was a low-cost 9mm suppressor capable of handling high volumes of fire and the ability to run other calibers such as .300 BLK and .308 Win. It was primarily focused on suppressing 9mm (specifically sub-machine guns and SBRs). It is also capable of being used on a handgun in conjuction with our Nielson Booster Assembly.

Titanium, a highly coveted metal in the world of suppressors for it’s extreme lightweight and durability properties. Which is why when we set out to create our next modular suppressor, it had to be the material of choice. Enter the NITRO® N20, YHM’s newest iteration of our modular suppressor range designed around the tactical shooter.

The NITRO® N20 achieves mission specific modularity by providing the operator with a plethora of mounting options and the ability to
choose between a short and long configuration. The NITRO® N20 is full-auto rated with subsonic ammunition and will accommodate .17HMR to 9mm and .308 Win.

This suppressor is not Magnum Rated.

The NITRO® N20 has 1- 3/8”-24 rear mounting threads and ships in the 1/2”-28 Direct Thread format. Additional mounting options include: the Phantom® Q.D. Adapter, 3-Lug adapter, Nielsen adapter, and a multitude of Direct Thread sizes.

The NITRO® N20 consist of a main suppressor body and a forward extension body. This way it can be run in a long or short configuration based on your shooting needs.
