PTR has introduced a trio of suppressors that promise to redefine the sound suppression game: VENT 1, VENT 2, and VENT 3. Let’s dive into the features of each of these VENT suppressors.

VENT 1 – 7.62 X 51MM

PTR’s VENT 1 takes the spotlight with its precision engineering and groundbreaking technology. Priced at $1,499.00, this suppressor is not just a silencer – it’s a revolution in sound suppression and thermal management. Crafted from 3D-printed titanium using the Purposely Induced Porosity (PIP) technology, the VENT 1 stands out in terms of strength, weight, and performance.

We were told at SHOT Show 2024 that the user doesn’t have to worry about carbon or lead buildup in the porous areas due to the advanced coating that this suppressor wears inside, and out, which is too slick for these materials to build up on. The same is true for all VENT suppressors. Weighing in at a mere 12.3 ounces, the VENT 1 strikes a delicate balance between lightness and durability. With a promise of a quiet experience, this can aims to redefine your shooting experience.

VENT 2 – 9 X 19MM

Priced at $1,425.00, the VENT 2 is similar to the other VENT offerings but tailored for the 9x19mm caliber. This suppressor features a 3D-printed titanium body with superior coatings, ensuring unmatched durability and performance. With its internal venting system and innovative baffle geometry, the VENT 2 excels in reducing muzzle noise.

The Purposely Induced Porosity (PIP) technology controls explosive gas expansion, providing a remarkably smooth shooting experience. Weighing only 8.9 ounces, this can maintains a practical design with a length of 7.6 inches.

This silent suppressor promises class-leading performance and extraordinary durability. We were shocked by the shots that we took through the VENT 2 during SHOT Show Range Day because of how quiet the suppressor was, even when using ball ammo.

    This Purposely Induced Porosity aka metal foam was the coolest thing at SHOT this year by far.

    I heard these suppressors were amazing. I’d love to have something that light and that signature-reducing.
