Today’s Topics:
1. Today we are launching Section 8 of the Silencer Sound Standard: SSS.8 – Advanced Silencer Research. Outside of public view, PEW Science performs a significant amount of testing and engineering analysis on a variety of systems; most of which is never published. Not everything has to remain behind closed doors. Section 8 of the Standard presents further research advancements that are cleared for public release. (00:04:02)
2. The first section in Section 8 is live today with this episode! The first report in this section is SSS.8.1.1 - Introducing PEW-SOFT HD Hazard Maps. The Suppression Rating has made you powerful. Now, you will become even more powerful, as you navigate personnel hazards from silencers in both the free field and near reflecting surfaces; everywhere. We’ll walk you through the report in today’s talk. Here is an outline:
a. Introduction (00:08:22)
b. 8.1.1.1 - Dimensional Variations (00:20:12)
c. 8.1.1.2 - Free Field Data, and You (00:22:55)
d. 8.1.1.3 - PEW-SOFT HD Hazard Mapper (00:31:19)
e. 8.1.1.4 - MK18 Case Study: 556-RC2 vs. 556-RC3 vs FLOW 556k (00:41:04)
f. 8.1.1.5 - Reflections - Moving outside of the Free Field (01:02:20)
g. 8.1.1.6 - Conclusions and Acknowledgements (01:07:24)

Episode 273 - Microtech Defense R2K9 Testing and SIG MCX LT Heat Mitigation (27-AUG-2025)
Today’s Topics:
1. Sound Signature Review 6.198 – Microtech Defense R2K9 on the HK P30L. It’s been about 5 years or so, give or take, since this silencer hit the market. It’s about as old as PEW Science. Was it ahead of its time? Or was it simply a diamond in the rough that folks glossed over? Check out this interesting modular pistol silencer and the fully-featured accessory package in this Member Funded research – intro talk for today’s white paper. (00:08:14)
2. The SIG MCX, or “LVAW” and its variants. 6.75” Rattler LT recreational use continues. Really hammering the system with subs and supers. And, have some ideas for heat mitigation. Let’s continue the discussion we had last week. (00:28:06)
