I need a suppressor rebuilt

[Ken61]

I have a Gemtech suppressor that needs a rebuild.I can see some baffle damage and it looks like it can be disassembled.
I am planning on calling them Monday to see if they would do it. Has anyone here had one rebuilt?

I have had to send in a few of our duty suppressors due to baffle strikes. They came back with the original body and new baffles. They weren't Gemtech but the company should be able to do it.

Most companies offer to service and rebuild. Most offer cleaning on units that don't disassemble

Thanks

Gemtech can and has repaired suppressors from bullet strikes.

I sent it in, they sent if back, said it is obsolete????? Any one know of any independent shops that might look at it?

Is it just cleaning or are the baffles wore out from the blast? Does it dissemble?

I second this right here. You will have to get on a waiting list, but if anyone can do it and do a great job at it, it's Ecco.

Update.
I sent an e-mail to ECCO machine and haven't heard back from them yet. I talked to Brooks at Thompson Machine and he had insurance issues on working on customers suppressors but he refered me to Dave at Liberty Suppressors. I had a good talk with him and he agreed to work on it, so I sent it to the today. Dave and Brooks were both helpful and friendly.

I think the baffles are damaged. It does disassemble.

I talked to Dave at Liberty suppressor and Brooks at Thompson Machine. Based on my phone call, both are great guys and were willing to help. I sent my suppressor to Liberty Suppressor for repair.
I am really disappointed in S&W saying my my 5 year old suppressor is obsolete. I have been a S&W handgun fan since my youth. I have a safe full of 15s,29s,28s,14s, and so on. It is sad to be disrespected by this old company which I guess seems to have evolved into a "screw the customer, profits first" outfit.

Are they even in the can business anymore though? That may be why, and what kind of warranty did it have? Some of the same kind of things may happen with ACC since they were sold off, it's hard to manufacture parts when you have moved on and it's basically a new company.
