Episode 263 - CAT RAT 300 BLK MCX Testing Intro and PWS BDE 22 Tech Discussion (18-JUN-2025)

Today’s Topics:

  1. Sound Signature Review 6.190 – the Primary Weapon Systems PWS BDE 22 on the subcompact Beretta 21A (Bobcat). A little rimfire palate cleanser for you! Monocore, 3D printed, user serviceable. Technical discussion of this lightweight silencer’s performance that was characterized in last week’s report (00:09:09)

  2. Semiauto 300 BLK is here! Sound Signature Review 6.191 – Combat Application Technologies CAT/RAT on the 6.75-in SIG SAUER MCX AR-18 consumer retail LVAW analog. The CAT RAT is modular – but not how we typically see. This is also more than an end cap change. Let’s introduce both this new test host and this new silencer system designed specifically for the SIG MCX and Rattler family of PDWs.
