[QUOTE="PrecisionRx, post: 2650774, member: 118189"] I understand the reason for wanting to have a universal suppressor. However, changing out the “guts” would probably be more trouble than it is worth as some designs are “sealed” to lower the db report. There are suppressors that have interchangeable caps or ends for different calibers, but the smaller caps used for smaller calibers don’t have much effect on the amount of suppression. Trying to get a suppressor to span the large range of calibers you listed would also require adapters for the different thread sizes and pitches used on rifle barrels of those calibers; plus the bigger suppressors would be very bulky on the smaller calibers. I hate to say it, but it would be easier and better to have multiple suppressors. [/QUOTE]
