A growing emphasis in the Additive Manufacturing (AM) industry has been on developing use cases for additive manufacturing at the production level, for real-world solutions in established areas of industry.

This report focuses on one such area in the global industry of small arms manufacturing. Small arms manufacturing has proven it is an area that is willing to adopt new processes and means of production, though specific areas of this industry have not seen significant technology innovation in the area of manufacturing for, in some cases, a century. Silencer manufacturing is one such area that has relied on subtractive machining processes—turning, lathe, and CNC milling—since their original inception.

In 2017, AM Research published a similar market perspective on additively manufactured silencers. That perspective, now seven years in the past as of the date of publication of this report, discussed several market factors and trends which are still present in the market today.

This concise but extremely valuable report describes the history, current markets and future outlook for the silencer market with respect to the development and increasing adoption of AM.

Market data, penetration rates, and forecasting are built using proprietary modeling and existing AM Research market data, and deepened and contextualized by exhaustive research and direct interviews with a number of industry players.

Companies and organizations mentioned or profiled include but are not limited to: Sig Sauer, EOS, Tronrud Engineering, Oceana Defense, Delta P Design, RAM3D, Daniel Defense, Surefire, HuxWurx, PWS, Dead Air, CGS, Radical Firearms, and the US Military.
