The SureFire SOCOM300-SPS Dark Earth is a Fast-Attach suppressor for .300 Blackout and .300 Whisper (7.62×35) rifles and carbines (SureFire part no. SOCOM300-SPS-DE). SureFire calls it the quietest suppressor in its family, with highly specialized V-shaped baffles tuned for subsonic ammunition that virtually eliminate first-round flash and dust signature. The bore is oversized yet precision machined, which lowers the chance of a baffle strike from an unstable projectile. It is optimized for .300 BLK carbines with barrels of 10 inches or shorter, and SureFire notes it is also very capable in 5.56mm applications. This Dark Earth version matches tan and FDE rifles.
