Q Suppressor Short Chop 8.6Blk 7.2 Nitride

The Q Suppressor Short Chop is a compact 8.6 Blackout suppressor designed for shooters who want effective sound reduction without sacrificing maneuverability. Built for the 8.6mm cartridge, this 7.2-inch can delivers Q's reputation for quality suppression in a shorter package that works well on short-barreled rifles, pistol-caliber carbines, and other setups where real estate matters. The nitride finish protects against corrosion and wear, and the Quickie XL fast-attach system lets you swap it between compatible hosts in seconds—no tools, no hassle.

Weighing just 9.6 ounces, the Short Chop keeps your gun balanced and handy. The 1.75-inch diameter is compact enough to clear most rail systems and handguards, so you won't fight your setup to mount it. Whether you're suppressing supersonic 8.6 rounds or working with subsonic loads, this can is engineered to handle the job. The separate muzzle brake assembly (3.2 oz) delivers the flash-hiding and recoil-taming benefits Q is known for, and it attaches to the suppressor body via the Quickie XL system for repeatable alignment shot after shot.

This is a Form 4 item—registration and compliance with federal law are your responsibility as the buyer. Once it's registered to you, you've got a purpose-built suppressor that balances size, weight, and sound reduction for serious 8.6 Blackout shooters who refuse to compromise.
