Oregon manufacturer Delta P Design used the SOFIC 2017 exhibition to announce that it has developed a .50 calibre machine-gun suppressor to add to its BREVIS II family of suppressors.

In addition to announcing the new suppressor, Delta P Design and i3DMFG also announced an exclusive agreement to design and manufacture the 3D-printed weapon suppressors using i3D’s Direct Metal Laser Melting (DMLM) technology.

Using DMLM technology, the BREVIS II suppressor is manufactured in a single, solid piece of metal with no welds or threaded seams for failure points. The suppressors are smaller, lighter, and more durable than conventionally made suppressors
