With the reduction of the suppressor tax-stamp to $0 on January 1, 2026, an opening appeared in the suppressor market for an affordable line of cans that could bring hearing protection to all price points. In no time flat, Lyman Products has filled that gap with Sonicore Suppressors, a new suppressor brand bringing a well-regarded European design to the U.S. market. Despite these roots, it is engineered and manufactured in the United States, promising trusted performance, durable construction and a practical feature set.

Sonicore suppressors boast engineered baffle systems and stainless-steel cores that reduce perceived report and help preserve hearing. The integrated muzzle-brake design reduces muzzle rise, allowing for faster follow-up shots. Modular construction across the line simplifies cleaning and maintenance while giving hunters and shooters the flexibility to tailor length and performance to their specific needs.

Eleven Models, Four Purpose-Built Platforms

Beginning in 2026, Sonicore will introduce eleven suppressor models across four distinct product families, each engineered for a specific shooting application:

Paradox Sonicore

Paradox

Built for hunters who prioritize lightweight performance, Paradox suppressors will also be available in .223 and .30 caliber, in both DT and OB configurations. Like Rekkr, Paradox uses aluminum baffle modules with stainless steel inserts to create a strong steel core, finished in a black, non-glare, Mil-Spec hard-coat anodize. The Paradox emphasizes reduced weight while maintaining effective sound suppression. An integrated stainless steel muzzle brake helps ensure secure mounting shot after shot.

Skarv 22

Skarv 22 

The Skarv 22 is a modular rimfire suppressor designed for both pistols and rifles. Extremely lightweight and machined from 6026-T9 aluminum, the Skarv 22 features a black, non-glare, Mil-Spec hard-coat anodized finish. Its modular design makes it easy to disassemble for cleaning, while the knurled exterior provides a secure grip and improves heat dissipation. The Skarv 22 uses a 1/2-28 TPI direct thread, fitting most threaded rimfire firearms.

Rekkr

Rekkr

Designed for high-volume semi-automatic rifle shooters, Rekkr models will be available in .223 and .30 caliber, offered in both Direct Thread (DT) and Over-Barrel (OB) configurations. Rekkr suppressors feature a lightweight, modular design machined from 6026-T9 aluminum with 303 stainless steel baffle inserts forming a durable steel core. Thicker wall construction supports enhanced firing schedules, while an integrated stainless steel muzzle brake directs gas to help keep the suppressor securely tightened during use. Shooters can shorten the suppressor by removing modules when compactness takes priority over maximum suppression.

Valor 9

Valor 9

The Valor 9 is a 9mm pistol suppressor constructed from 6026-T9 aluminum and finished with a durable black, non-glare, Mil-Spec hard-coat anodize. Shipped in a full-length configuration with eight baffles, the Valor 9 is fully modular, allowing users to remove baffles to tailor length and performance. The knurled exterior enhances grip and heat dissipation, and each suppressor includes an integrated booster system. Valor 9 ships with a piston in one of two thread options.

Sonicore Suppressors will be available exclusively through select Lyman distributors and dealers. For more information, visit SonicoreSuppressors.com. MSRP: $199 to $299

Sonicore Suppressors will be on display at the Lyman Booth #13054 at SHOT and can be tested live in Lane SR-15 at SHOT Show Industry Day at the Range.
