[SHOT 2025] Radical Defense: Silencers For Cheytac And More -

Radical Defense had a whole host of silencers on display at their SHOT Show 2025 booth. There were new models made in collaboration with Cheytac as well as a new 5.7 suppressor. Keep reading for all the details.

SHOT 2025 @ TFB:

Two new silencers made in collaboration with Cheytac were on very prominent display in Radical’s booth. Two Cheytac rifles, one gold-plated, welcomed visitors to the booth and showed the new silencers on their intended hosts. These suppressors come in both .375 and .408 bore diameters, so they can accommodate the rounds that everyone associates with the M200 Intervention rifle. Another design option is a muzzle brake on the front end of the silencer, as shown on the gold-plated rifle. Cheytac also owns some intellectual property for an internal muzzle brake which is built inside these suppressors.

Internally, these suppressors use helical baffles. That advanced design is possible because they are 3D printed out of Haynes 282, an advanced material used in rocket engines. It boasts extreme durability and heat tolerance. The internal geometry is more effective the higher the bore pressure gets, so it is ideal for hefty rounds like those used in the Cheytac rifles. These silencers are in production now and are sold exclusively through Cheytac.

The other new suppressor on display is at the other end of the size spectrum. The LS5.7 is designed for the 5.7×28 cartridge and was displayed on an FN P90. It is made of 3D-printed titanium with a one piece design for maximum durability. It vents gasses forward to reduce back pressure and has small ports around the front end that help tighten the silencer onto the host gun. Though it is designed around the 5.7, it will also work with 4.6×30 and .22 LR, but thanks to the one-piece design it can’t be disassembled for cleaning and plated .22 ammo is strongly recommended. It should be ready at the end of Q1.

As a final bonus, Radical had a 30mm cannon suppressor on display as well. I didn’t get any pricing info on it, but if you have a warship or armored vehicle that could use one of these I am sure they would be happy to discuss it with you.
