Tampa, FL – B&T USA is excited to announce that its M14/M1A RBS Suppressor has been selected by On Target Magazine as one of the publications choices for top products released at SHOT Show 2023.
“Given the whirlwind that is SHOT Show — combined with new product releases by hundreds of different manufacturers — B&T is beyond humbled to have our M14/M1A RBS Suppressor chosen by the editors of On Target Magazine as one of their Best of SHOT 2023 selections” said Chris Mudgett, Vice President of Marketing, B&T USA. “We tuned this suppressor specifically to the to work with the M14/M1A gas system to ensure 100% reliable function. It provides a substantial reduction in back pressure with a near immeasurable increase in cyclic rate/bolt speed/op-rod wear, thereby extending parts life while providing improved shooter health and function, and exceptional sound and flash reduction.”
“At this point in time, we are unaware of another suppressor manufacturer who has effectively cracked the code suppressing an M14/M1A platform that has not also created negative second and third order effects to the platform,” said Ben Battles, Editor of On Target Magazine. “B&T USA’s simple yet ingenious attachment method is completely toolless and mounts securely to the front sight post and existing muzzle devices on all M14/M1A variants except SOCOM 16 models. Couple the mounting solution with state-of-the-art RBS technology and you have a winning combination that is tuned to the platform all while providing exceptional sound, flash and gas reduction. For these reasons we’ve chosen B&T USA’s M14/M1A RBS suppressor as one of the Best of SHOT ’23 Awards.”
