The old days of silencer design are over. No longer are consumers happy to just put a gas trap on the end of a barrel. Gassy silencers push noise, pressure, and toxic fumes back through the action and into the face of the shooter. Current generation silencers are more aware of these dangers and new designs seek to reduce these hazards to the shooter. Enter the Silencerco Velos LBP.
Silencero has been making suppressors since 2008 and builds their reputation on constant innovation. The Omega 300, one of the best selling silencers of all time, brought the now ubiquitous HUB thread to market. The Salvo 12 was the first widely available shotgun silencer in the United States. The Maxim 9 brought a modular, integrally suppressed handgun to the hands of shooters. Now, the Velos LBP is here. Manufactured with a combination of state of the art additive manufacturing (3D printed Inconel!) and traditional machining, Silencerco is able to produce this hybrid design. With a high gas flow rate, a modified Hoplon blast baffle, and carefully selected materials, the Velos LBP reduces toxic hazard to the shooter, wear and tear on the weapon, and achieve a new level of durability for Silencerco. No barrel length restrictions, a full auto rating, and a modular Charlie ASR mounting system.
Andrew Herbst, SilencerCo Product Manager said, “Our goal was to bring the best balance of sound performance, strength, and reduced impact to the host firearm’s operating system. We’ve created a product that does just that. There is no compromising sound or flash performance with the Velos LBP. The inclusion of our Hoplon blast baffle design and no barrel restrictions confirms the Velos LBP will handle whatever you choose to throw at it. It’s the low back-pressure silencer your semi and fully automatic firearms have been waiting for.”
Silencers aren't just about noise. It is claimed that the Finns have a saying, "A silencer doesn't make you silent, it makes you invisible." Whether this apocryphal quote is real or not doesn't diminish its meaning. Silencers are also about killing flash. From design to materials, the Velos LBP is built to suppress flash as effectively as it does sound. Titanium has been known to spark when firing, so for this model Silencerco has selected 17-4 stainless steel and Inconel 625. No sparks, ever. High flow rate silencers are believed by some to be more susceptible to muzzle flash than more traditional gas traps, so Silencerco has taken a flash hider end cap and inverted it to keep the classic flat cap look while improving flash performance.

THIS IS A SERIALIZED ITEM. It must ship to a Federal Firearms License holder. No civilian exceptions.
Buying and shipping through Charlie’s is easy, but there is some information you need to know. Only a federally licensed firearms dealer may receive a firearm or federally regulated serialized item (like a receiver or suppressor). We cannot ship these items directly to you. Please follow these steps to process your transaction:
1) Check your state laws to make sure the federally regulated item you want to purchase is legal in your state. Your FFL dealer should be able to give you all of the necessary information regarding your state specific laws. But, if we ship to your FFL, and there is a legal issue, we cannot accept a return. So please make sure that you know and follow your local and state laws.
2) A quick google search will show you what Federal Firearms Licensed (FFL) dealers are in your area. When you are ready to purchase, contact the FFL dealer you would like to use and get their shipping address. During the check-out, put YOUR address in the “billing” section and the FFL DEALER’S address in the “shipping” section. If you don’t know your FFLs address, that’s okay. You can send the information later.
3) After check out, make sure to contact your FFL dealer to ensure they will receive your shipment for you (most do this for a small fee, but you should always double check).
4) Have your dealer send us a copy of their FFL to FFL@CharliesCustomClones.com. Charlie’s does not reach to your FFL (MAKE THEM EARN THEIR FEE!!!)
5) Be patient! In order to ensure we remain compliant with all federal laws, our compliance department is kept separate from our sales and operations team. Please allow a few days for our compliance officer to verify all of your dealer’s documents and ensure all federal laws are being observed. You should hear from our compliance department within 3-4 business days. If not, feel free to reach out for a status update.
That’s it! We try to make this process as simple as possible for our customers, but if you are unfamiliar the process or have any other questions, please visit our How to Buy a Suppressor page for more details.
