Advanced Armament Company expands its premium suppressor lineup with the introduction of the all-new Ranger Series. Developed specifically for AR-15 and AR-10 platform rifles, the Ranger 5 and Ranger 7 suppressors feature a compact design and reduced weight, delivering reliable, on-the-move performance for tactical or sporting applications.
Constructed of Inconel 718 high-strength nickel alloy and 17-4 H900 stainless steel for maximum strength and corrosion resistance, the Ranger series is built to withstand the harshest environmental conditions and high-volume operation. For additional protection, both Ranger suppressors are treated with a high-temperature Cerakote finish.

Fans of the AR-10 platform will appreciate the minimal size and weight of the Ranger 7 suppressor for rifles chambered in .300 Win. Mag and .308 Win. Weighing 17.2 ounces and measuring 6.75 inches long with the included 5/8-24 direct-thread mount, the Ranger 7 presents an agile sound suppression platform with 24dB (.300 WM) and 30dB (M80 .308 Win.) reduction performance.
In addition to the shared material construction and finish, the Ranger 5 and Ranger 7 suppressors incorporate a built-in muzzle brake.
