2024 Editor’s Choice Award Winning B&T Print-X RBS 556 SC Ti

B&T Print-X RBS 556 SC Ti

Swiss Manufacturer B&T and its US-based subsidy B&T USA are on the cutting edge of suppressor development with its new line of DMLS (Direct Metal Laser Sintering, aka 3D printed) Print-X RBS suppressors. RBS (Reduced Backpressure Suppressors) technology is a giant leap forward in reducing the amount of blast back to the shooter. This blast comprises carbon monoxide, ammonia hydrogen cyanide, and other nasty stuff from the composition of metals in the dust emitted during prolonged firing.

The Print-X suppressors are HUB compatible (1.375×24 TPI), meaning they’re capable of adapting to the many QD muzzle devices currently on the market — B&T-made or otherwise — or simple direct-thread interfaces via the replaceable mount. A Rotex / SureFire QD HUB mount is included with each suppressor.

Constructed of 100% Titanium, the 3D-printed Print-X Ti is completely weldless with no failure points. Weight and how something hanging off the front of your rifle affects balance are important considerations, and we are happy to report that at 8.0 ounces for the 5.56mm Ti SC (Subcompact) version (pictured), we can’t even tell if it’s there. While the Titanium versions offer a substantial weight savings, they still maintain the same high performance you’ve come to expect from the Rotex line of suppressors, which is exceptional sound suppression capabilities, extreme durability, and longevity — all while providing industry-leading sound and flash reduction. It is HUB compatible (1.375×24 TPI), allowing you to use the muzzle device of your choice, or a simple direct-thread mount (shown) to keep things easy. If more encouragement is needed, the Print-X RBS Ti suppressors start at $899, making them some of the less expensive titanium suppressors we’ve come across, and, in some cases, half the price of many of its competitors.

The Print-X line uses RBS (Reduced Backpressure Suppressors) technology to cut the blast of harmful toxic gases that are otherwise directed back at the shooter when using a non-flow-through suppressor. The body of the Print-X Ti is entirely 3d printed from lightweight Titanium, yielding an incredibly light 8.0 oz. weight for the Subcompact version.

As of writing this, the Print-X 556 Ti is offered in three different sizes: Subcompact, Compact, and Fullsize. The Print-X 762 Ti is offered in two sizes: Compact and Fullsize. Not only do these B&T suppressors take full advantage of the latest manufacturing techniques technology has to offer, but they’re produced by a company that has been at the forefront of suppressor development for the last 34 years.
