The Griffin Armament Recce 5 AM is a durable 5.56mm suppressor in black, printed from Griffin’s proprietary Nickel 625X powder alloy with SLM additive manufacturing. The printing process yields a solid core, and Griffin laser-welds it to a machined 17-4 stainless rear so the can stays warranty serviceable. It rides on the backward-compatible Taper Mount-RI system, which holds far better than a plain direct thread. The integrated flash hider end cap works with the printed core to hold flash to a first-round minimum. It has no minimum barrel length restrictions for rifle calibers, which makes it a hard-use choice for duty and tactical AR-15s.

Key Specifications

• The caliber rating is .22 caliber (5.56mm), sized for AR-15 and other 5.56mm rifles.
• Size is 6.56 inches long by 1.5 inches in diameter, a full-length can in the Recce 5 line.
• Weight is 14.6 ounces, light for a full-auto rated rifle can.
• The mount is Taper Mount-RI, and a Taper Mount EZ-Brake in 1/2×28 comes in the box, so no device timing is needed.
• Griffin lists this black version under part number GAREC5AM-W, the number to match against Griffin’s own catalog and manuals.
