Dead Air Silencers just released something completely different from their usual suppressor lineup: a tactical axe. The DAXE, created in partnership with Winkler Knives, combines a compact throwing axe with a built-in wrench for Dead Air muzzle devices. Because why carry two tools when one will do?

Hello everyone, and welcome back to TFB's Silencer Saturday, brought to you by Yankee Hill Machine, manufacturers of the YHM R45 Multi-Host Suppressor. I am jumping in this week since I recently had the chance to work with Dead Air's new RXD suppressors for some reviews over at our sister site AllOutdoor.com, and after spending time with both the RXD30Ti and RXD22Ti, I thought they deserved some extra spotlight here on TFB.

If you like silencers you likely have heard about the tiny piece of commentary from the “Big Beautiful Bill” that is going to eliminate the $200 NFA Tax Stamp come January 1st, 2026. Well, to motivate shooters to not wait until then, Dead Air Armament has announced a $300 Hush Money promotion to keep you in the buying mood.

Dead Air has been expanding their lineup with innovative suppressor designs, and the Mojave 9 represents one of its latest ventures into the world of 3D-printed titanium suppressors. With its modular design and the new Triskelion baffle system, the Mojave 9 promises to deliver reduced blowback while maintaining excellent sound suppression. I had the opportunity to spend some time with this can at the range to see if it lives up to the hype.

Ruger and Dead Air have teamed up for a new suppressor collaboration in the form of the new Dead Air RXD 30Ti and RXD 22Ti. Engineered from the ground up to complement Ruger’s iconic firearm platforms with unmatched performance, lightweight design, and easy maintenance, both suppressors boast additive-manufactured titanium cores, Triskelion™ baffle design, versatile mounting systems, and Black or Burnt Bronze Cerakote finishes for rugged reliability. Tune in for deets on the suppressors and stay for Mike's uplifting life advice at the Dead Air booth.

The rimfire suppressor market just got more interesting as Dead Air and Ruger unveiled their latest collaboration: the RXD22Ti. This $499 titanium can marks Dead Air's first major rimfire update since the Mask HD that helped put them on the map years ago.

The new RXD30Ti suppressor from Dead Air isn't just another can – it's the first fruit of a partnership with Ruger that aims to shake up the suppressor market. Available in sleek Burnt Bronze or tactical Black Cerakote for $1,099, this ultralight titanium beast combines Dead Air's Triskelion and Nomad baffle systems into one package that won't weigh down your hunting rig.

Dead Air Silencers expands its pistol suppressor lineup with the innovative Mojave 45, featuring their patent-pending Triskelion Gas Management System. This modular suppressor delivers enhanced performance for 45 Auto and multiple other calibers.

Around five years ago, I wrote one of my first TFB articles announcing Dead Air's Asylum program - a unique loyalty system in an industry where customer rewards remain uncommon. The suppressor market typically focuses on products rather than customer retention, making Dead Air's tiered approach particularly interesting. While that first article could only outline the program's framework, five years of personal experience now provides insight into what customers actually receive at each level.

Dead Air has introduced the Sandman X at SHOT Show 2025, marking the next step in the evolution of its well-regarded Sandman suppressor series. Built with a 3D-printed Haynes 282 construction, the Sandman X is designed to minimize backpressure, reduce muzzle flash, and provide effective sound suppression across semi-auto and full-auto platforms. It features Dead Air’s HUB socket for broad mounting compatibility and an interchangeable front cap system. We take a closer look at its design, performance, and what sets it apart from previous models.
