THE QMF .45!! NEW RELEASE FROM THOMPSON MACHINE!!! w/ Video
We're very proud to announce the release of our newest suppressor, the QMF .45. If you've noticed that we've been a little quiet on the forums lately, this is why.
Specs:
Length: 6.8"
Diameter: 1.375"
Weight: 5.4oz
Material: 6061 T6
Finish: Type III Hardcoat Anodized/Matte Black Powdercoated
for optimum durability
Design: Mono-Baffle w/ Take-down tool
included
Introductory Price: $499.00

The QMF is one of the lightest, smallest full-size .45 acp cans on the market and offers excellent suppression levels dry and shocking levels when fired wet. On top of that, it is affordable, and is able to be fully and easily disassembled for cleaning.
The QMF uses a boosterless design for reduced blowback and perceived sound at the shooter's ear, and cycles flawlessly and with authority on all full and mid-size .45 pistols that we have tested it on, including 1911s, XDs, and Glocks.
As always guys, if you have any questions about the QMF, ask away!! To place orders, email me at [email protected].

Richard has been making cans since the early 90's, so some of these designs have been in the works for 10-15 years. I have also been designing baffles for some time. It may appear that we're just "poppin" em out, but these are just lots of years of work coming to fruition.Christ. How many can's are you guys gonna pop out? This is just getting scary. And expensive to think about.

Awesome! I can't wait even though I have to. It's certainly impressive so jump on them guys. I just happened to stumble on the video on their youtube page about a month ago and have bugged Brooks about it since. Thanks again Brooks!
I'm not so good with the advice, but could I interest you in a sarcastic comment?

Gemtech Blackside .45: 6.1" x 1.375", 5.2oz, no booster, unreliable as F--k.
I'm just sayin'...
Cycling also has a lot to do with baffle design. The QMF works 100% on everything we've tried it on.
A local customer actually brought by his Blackside for comparison. The QMF absolutely blows it away dry and wet. Hard to quantify, but I would say that the QMF is perceived as half as loud.
Thanks! Actually the QMF is very comfortable to shoot dry unlike every other .45 can I have ever fired. (have yet to try a Ti-Rant or Osprey) It is quieter dry than the HEMS II, and WAAYYYYY quieter than the Blackside.so QMF and Poseidon 45 can's both huh - one wipeless and one wiped both designed to be shot wet only? What's it like without ablative?
Very cool stuff your doing.
Sounds great... closer to the camera mic and yet HEMS2 sounds louder... to me at least...
Brooks- I dont mean to high jack your thread but I have to address this... my boosterless blackside fitted to a Nighthawk has cycled 2000 rounds, wet and dry, without one issue... just sayin

I was thinking, does that even qualify as a silencer? hahaConqueror wrote:Gemtech Blackside .45: 6.1" x 1.375", 5.2oz, no booster, unreliable as F--k.

Edit- meant to also say Wow, nice job guys...looks great!

.......MaaayyyybbeeeQMF = "Quiet Mother ***ker" ?
Here's how it was named.
Richard pulls trigger on G21, we look at eachother, and simultaneously exclaim:
HOLY S**T that's one Quiet Mother***er
To answer an earlier question, you can't see standard sights over it since it's a 1 3/8" diameter can, but it is very easy to either get aftermarket elevated sights, or just "look through" the can.

Just make sure on your next prototype can that you don't get a bad baffle strike or else it will be named the HFWTHJH.
Perhaps you could make a derringer in 500 S&W. Name it the, OMFGITTFTJBMGDH.
