The Griffin Armament Sportsman Ultra Light HD .46 in FDE is a lightweight big-bore hunting suppressor finished in flat dark earth high-temp Cerakote (brand part no. GASUL46HDFDE-W). Full 17-4 stainless steel construction is laser-welded without a separate tube for near-titanium weight, and the HD for high durability marks it as tougher than the original aluminum Sportsman cans. Patented ECO-FLOW baffles cut gas toward the shooter. It suits lever-gun hunters and .45 caliber pistol owners who want an earth-tone can.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a mount included? No. Griffin states the Sportsman Ultra Light HD .46 does not come with a muzzle device or HUB mount interface, so you choose one separately.
