AAC E3: Coming soon

Advanced Armament Corp, better just known by its AAC acronym, is a brand that was one of the first big suppressor makers. They were responsible for the Honey Badger and the .300 Blackout before Remington Outdoors gobbled them up and basically destroyed the company. The brains trust there included John Hollister, who went on to form SIG’s suppressor division; Knox Williams, who went on to become the president of the American Suppressor Association; and Kevin Brittingham who went on to form Q.

Fast forward to 2020 and JJE Capital, the company that owns Palmetto State Armory, won the old AAC brand from Remington’s federal bankruptcy auction and is now planning to debut the new Element 3 suppressor later this year. The E3 will be rated to 5.7×28 and fully auto-rated on 22LR. Using a toolless design with a non-modular tube and titanium baffles, it will only weigh 5.6 ounces.

Sorry, no price yet but if you know PSA…this could be cool.
