All of my experience with rimfire cans is with Dead Air Mask and Thunderbeast TD, so I can't help you with practical knowledge. That said, your little list has me thinking about a small can now. Of the three, I am liking the Mustang due to the versatility (option to go from 5.3" to 3.4") and the S/N being on an area that with little chance of being impacted by baffle strike or other issues. That means they can replace the whole thing and not need a new tax stamp as the S/N hasn't changed.

 

That's quite the mix. Not sure anyone is going to chime in that owns all three. I only own the Mustang from the options. I would say get it over the other two only because you'd still have the choice to run it full size. Even in full length mode, the Mustang is only .3oz heavier than the Aeris.

 

Rugged Oculus is the cousin of the Rugged Mustang. It has stainless baffles and can be configured in a short or long format. There are others that can be configured short or long, such as the Silencerco Switchback, and Q Erector. I am sure there are others you can dig up also. They make your suppressor versatile. I have an Oculus and it has worked well for me, but I never use it in the short version.

You probably have or will have other threaded barrel rimfires you might want to use the full length configuration on. Plus, I always figure if I have to wear hearing protection for standard velocity ammunition, I don't really need a suppressor. I can't personally rationalize buying a suppressor that is loud.

 

I have the Mustang and it is very quiet. Yes the s/n is engraved on the titanium threaded portion of the suppessor and the suppressor is guaranteed for life. Is it still being made? I don't see it on the Rugged website any longer.

It's there

 

Thanks guys for the replies I'm wanting a smaller can because the host pistols will be Beretta 21A covert and a Walther PPK 22. I'm thinking a shorter suppressor will work better as far as size goes. The silencerco switchback looks promising as well. I like the Rugged mustang too and the fact it can be longer or shorter is a plus too.

 

I really like my Mustang. Light and quiet.
