Ambient Arms: Suppressors that Run Nearly 400 Degrees Cooler than Other Suppressors

Ambient Arms suppressors operate with the proprietary Ambient Intake System drawing outside air into the suppressor to dramatically drop post-shooting temperatures.

In simplified form, it means the suppressors are built with ports on the outside of the suppressor that some might easily confuse as places for exhaust. However, the ports are actually for air intake, drawing in air from around the suppressor as the bullet passes through the device, thereby creating an area on the suppressor that remains cool enough to touch even after multiple rounds have been fired.

How cool? We shot 30 rounds of 5.56 through an Ambient Arms EXO suppressor on a Shield SR-15 and 30 rounds through DD Wave suppressor on a Daniel Defense M4 V7. After 30 rounds, the temperature on the DD Wave reached 485 degrees. Meanwhile, the temperature on the grip area of the Ambient Arms EXO was 95-97 degrees, which is cooler
