American Sniper suppressor
Not sure if this should be here or in the Lair. In the movie American Sniper, the rifle he was using had a fairly long suppressor. What was the setup?

I have the Ruger Ranch rifle in .308 and want to suppress it. Already own some Silencerco stuff. Looking for one more can to complete my trilogy of cans based on calibers I shoot.

Thanks.

Lemme take a swipe at this, I may get points wrong, others will correct me.

SR-25 suppressor

Unique in the world of cans, takes a special barrel and gas block if memory serves me right. It is difficult to get the gun and even harder to get the can I have a friend who builds clones if military weapons and hehas called the setup too expensive to find.

At 12" in length it sure looks similar. Found a dealer in NW Arkansas, will contact him tomorrow. Thanks for the reply.
