The Resilient Suppressors Putnik is a specialized AK platform-specific 7.62 mm rifle silencer that is HUB compatible and may be used on a variety of host weapons. The high flow rate, large expansion volume, and forward-directing vent array in the Putnik all function to increase its efficiency as barrel lengths decrease. On systems that have the propensity for significant ejection port blast hazards, like the AK platform, the Putnik produces less human hazard accompanied by a quantified lower frequency response that is typically subjectively interpreted as a “deep tone.”  It is likely that users will find the Putnik to provide relatively high suppression performance with standard AK rifle platforms, when compared to several other 30 caliber silencers.

In this review, the Resilient Suppressors Putnik performance metrics depend upon suppressing a supersonic centerfire rifle cartridge on two AK-pattern gas-operated rifles, which is an incredibly difficult task. How would the Resilient Suppressors Putnik perform on your Bulgarian AK-pattern rifle with a 16.3-in or 12.6-in barrel?
