Anyone have any information on this suppressor? Looks a little pricey but curious to know if titanium is the way to go for a 22 can.

Im sorry, I don't understand hood'onics
It's actually "Swamp'onics"
He's poking fun at the owner. On the show he used to say that line when he was "inventing" "game changers".
As for you question.... Run away from that can.
Top 22 cans:
Silencerco Sparrow SS
Silencerco Spectre ii
AAC Element 2
Liberty Essence
Edit to add: what is your use for this can? Rifle/pistol/both.
Do you want lightest/easiest to clean/quietest?

i own a TBAC 22-L. My next rimfire can will be the Surefire Ryder.
is there a reason that you want another rimfire vs another caliber?
Best .22 can on the market today in my opinion is the Surefire Ryder
Has anyone had a TBAC 22 can "jail broken" and converted into a serviceable can?

If you have to ask why, your vote doesn't count.

Why? It is titanium. Dip it or send it back. They will clean it for free once a year. I really don't understand the hype behind take apart .22 suppressors unless they are aluminum.

Why is Surefire the best....or why is Surefire's .22 can the best.....? Well the answer to both of those questions is......"Because Surefire IS the best"........duh. I own an AAC Aviator .22lr can.....it is awesome! I bought that about 8 years ago...still live it to this day...Surefire didnt make a 22 can then. Also own a Ti-Rant .45....Surefire doesn't make .45 cans....but they did make my 5.56-212 Legacy and after firing many many different suppressors....I now see why Surefire IS the best... ...hands down......no comparison. There IS an absolute reason to pay more for Surefire products. People crack me up when they say that their streamlight tlr is better than an x300 ultra...or any light by Surefire. ....ive owned steamlights....they suck if you intend to USE your accessories.
Very true...I did stray off topic. I dont own a Surefire Ryder yet.....I have held one. I have shot many suppressors in many calibers. Yes I am a "Fan" of Surefire. ...a great one. When I purchase something I don't like thinking....well maybe I should have gotten that one because "its better" or "thats the one that gets the better reviews" . I dont buy junk....and if we are talking .22 can manufacturers then I say Surefire.....we all know how easy it is to make a .22 silencer....hell, there are even vids on YouTube to show you how to make one. So, yes there are many brands.....but my opinion is that Surefire makes a .22 can with the same machines that make the best high powered suppressors....why aren't their 22 cans the best?

Just because they have a friggin stupid idiotic show. does not mean they have a can that is any better, just because it has, "Red Jackass" oh I'm sorry, I mean "Red Jacket" stamped on the side does not mean its going to be any better, than any other of the 22lr cans already out on the street now.
If you want to get the best, hands down, that won't cost you a arm and a leg for it, and it smokes any and all rim-fire cans out there, is the Sparrow SS. It is the best 22lr, multi caliber rim-fire cans in the market, today, period.

i think if you get the rj can you get a free picatinny mounted cup holder.
Your probably right. What do I know anyway.

Clearly you are under the impression that I was questioning your vast knowledge of the benefits of titanium suppressors..... Don't get your panties in a twist. That isn't the case. Some of us would just prefer to not have to ship the suppressor to someone else to be serviced. I personally would prefer to open the thing up, scrub it down, and reassemble it without having to buy, mix, and/or store a batch of chemicals every time I want to clean it... Elbow grease is free and non-toxic.

OP, I would not even consider the Red Jacket can. There's no "game changer" there.
Once again SilentG21 you offer the Surefire is the best at everything opinion with no merit to it. The best at what? Charging more $$$ for a product that does what many others can do for much less? Yep, that's about it. At it's price range it is competing with the likes of the 22 Sparrow which is going to be a much more robust can as it is going to be rated up to 5.7x28 as is the Spectre II at $100 less than even the Sparrow. Specifications wise, the Surefire compares closer to the SWR Warlock II as both are aluminum bodied suppressors rated only for 22LR, nothing else. Both are right at 3oz and close to the same length and the sound suppression numbers are comparable as well. The real kicker? The Warlock does all of this for over $200 cheaper.
Surefire dicked around with this can for years initially claiming they would have their own "game changer" and they failed to deliver. Quite frankly, they came up quite short as they have on a number of their cans. To be honest, there's not a single suppressor that Surefire currently makes that is best in class. None. To claim otherwise is absolutely ridiculous. They make a quality product, don't get me wrong, but the suppressor market has exploded in the past 10 years and the number of quality options out there only keeps increasing. There are a number of companies offering products with better specs, awesome warranties / customer service, and all doing all of this at a better price.
