Silencerco Salvo 12 - 12 Gauge Shotgun Silencer
- Caliber-Gauge:
- 12 Gauge
The SilencerCo Salvo 12 is a 12 gauge shotgun silencer engineered to bring hearing-safe sound reduction to shotguns across hunting, sport shooting, and home defense applications. Built from aluminum and stainless steel, this modular suppressor reduces muzzle report to 136.8 dB at full length—well below the 140 dB hearing-safe threshold—while also noticeably decreasing felt recoil. Whether you run a pump action, semi-auto, or inertia-driven shotgun, the Salvo 12 is designed to work with nearly all shotguns and ammunition on the market today.
What sets this shotgun suppressor apart is its modularity. You can remove sections to dial in your preferred balance of sound suppression, weight, and length for your specific mission. Choke mount adapters are available in improved cylinder, modified, improved modified, and full—so you can attach the Salvo 12 to your favorite shotgun without losing the ability to change chokes. This flexibility makes it equally at home on a clay gun, a waterfowl rig, a turkey gun, or a home defense shotgun.
After a few rounds through the Salvo 12, the combination of quieter shooting and reduced recoil makes going back to an unsuppressed shotgun feel almost unthinkable. If you own a shotgun but have never shot one suppressed, this is your entry point to a fundamentally better shooting experience.
