For those who requested me seven years in the past if I assumed I might have reviewed three HUXWRX (OSS) suppressors within the span of a 12 months, I in all probability would have thought you have been making a joke. I used to be a vocal critic of the early OSS days and the multi-part fashions with complicated attachment programs. Not anymore.
Right here we’re in 2023, with the VENTUM 762 being the newest Silencer Saturday overview, that includes a common mounting system with an possibility for a direct thread attachment. It’s pretty mild, fully consumer serviceable, and naturally, consists of the Circulation-By expertise that has caught the {industry}’s consideration.

I feel it’s pretty straightforward to inform from previous HUXWRX evaluations that I’m a fairly large fan of the FLOW 556K and FLOW 762 fashions – they’re quiet, practically get rid of the unfavourable results of “blowback”, and normally require little to no modifications to the host weapon to protect correct functioning. My important complaints have been the proprietary muzzle gadgets which can be a bit bulk and heavy.
With the discharge of the VENTUM 762, HUXWRX has introduced HUB compatibility to their lineup. The HUB system is a pseudo-industry commonplace mounting system that options 1.375×24 threads to permit for both HUXWRX mounts or mounts from different manufactures who use the identical specs. The profit being {that a} shooter doesn’t have change to a complete new mounting system simply because they purchase a brand new suppressor.

Not like the FLOW 556K and the FLOW 762, the VENTUM 762 is manufactured with conventional manufacturing processes versus additive manufacturing applied sciences. I take that again, the core seems to be printed whereas the tube is machined. The profit being that the VENTUM 762 is totally consumer serviceable.
Let’s check out the numbers.

The VENTUM 762 is a logical development for HUXWRX – the adaptability of a standardized mount will herald numerous new prospects that had be hesitant so as to add one other proprietary QD system for his or her rifles. For my part, the delay in a transfer to the HUB mount was due partially to the operate of the HUXWRX muzzle brake design that aided with the ahead stream of gasses. Now that the VENTUM has arrived, the clock is ticking for a FLOW 556/762 variant with a hub mount. Time will inform.
I simply walked in from the vary from taking pictures HUXWRX suppressors. We’ll revisit each the VENTUM 762 and the FLOW 762 subsequent week for a full vary report.
