Description
The CT5PDT Patrol™ from Dead Air Silencers is a purpose-built 5.56 NATO direct-thread suppressor engineered for professional-grade reliability, reduced backpressure, and compact handling. Designed for duty rifles and hard-use environments, this lightweight silencer delivers effective sound and flash reduction while maintaining reliable weapon function.
