One of the most trusted suppressor brands on the market dropped three new products for SHOT Show 2026. Here’s the scoop from Dead Air.
CT5P
The new CT5P is closely related to the Dead Air Lazarus 6 but has some key upgrades. This 5.56 suppressor was designed for law enforcement duty use. It is 3D-printed from Haynes 282, which is used in some of the highest-performance suppressors on the market. It’s Dead Air’s lowest backpressure suppressor to date, with only a 4-percent increase in bolt speed. This is truly designed for fast, heavy shooting schedules.
The CT5P also has the best flash mitigation of any suppressor in Dead Air’s lineup. The new escape design disperses the rapidly expanding gas and spark, eliminating any type of flash signature.
The big update to this suppressor is that there are no HUB-compatible threads. The purpose of this is so the mount can be printed from the same material as the suppressor, creating a better seal and more consistent thermal coefficient. This also reduces weight and length, as you don’t need a muzzle device or an adapter.
Nomad Ti OTB
Dead Air is further expanding into new territory with a .30-caliber over-the barrel suppressor. The lightweight Nomad Ti OTB was designed to keep a short profile, with hunters and precision shooters in mind.
The new Nomad recesses over any barrel that is less than 1 inch in diameter. The suppressor only adds 4.65 inches to the end of the firearm, as 3 inches are recessed over the barrel. That 3-inch over-barrel extension adds extra volume for gas expansion, allowing for a quieter shooting experience.
Constructed from grade 5 titanium, this suppressor weighs just 10.4 ounces. The OTB mounts to a new DA870 Xeno Radial Brake with a 5/8x24 thread pitch. The can is not full-auto rated but can handle anything up to .300 RUM in semi-auto or bolt actions.
RXD910Ti
Dead Air and Ruger recently launched a joint project to manufacture several suppressors. More than just sharing a name, the RXD line is built from the two companies’ design experience in two different areas of firearms expertise. Merging the world of Ruger firearms and Dead Air suppressors makes for a great silencer that is optimized for performance.
This third iteration of the RXD series is a 9mm/10mm suppressor that will work on anything from the Ruger RXM to the new Ruger 1895 lever-action rifle in 10mm. The RXD910Ti is a 3D-printed titanium can that uses Dead Air’s proprietary Triskelion baffle system. This suppressor is optimized for 9mm but is 10mm capable, making it versatile without compromising on sound suppression. This suppressor is designed to address sound signature, recoil, and backpressure.
Although not a modular pistol design like many of Dead Air’s other handgun suppressors, the RXD910Ti it is still versatile. This suppressor is full-auto rated and can handle anything from 9mm all the way up to .400 Legend. These suppressors are HUB-compatible and include a 1/2x28 threaded piston/booster for handgun shooting.
With each of these suppressors, Dead Air expands its catalog into new and innovative areas. It’s the year of the suppressor and time to start shooting safer, and Dead Air has some great options.
