Operator-designed. Patented gas architectures. Two-piece construction built to maintain, not replace. Every number we publish — meter, method, and conditions listed.
Sound suppression is a physics problem, not a marketing one. Every Echo Trace can is measured, logged, and published — meter, method, and conditions listed beside the number. If we cannot reproduce it, we don't ship it.
The result is a lineup that competes on numbers instead of adjectives. Consistent shot-to-shot, better mid-string suppression, and a can you can service — not throw out — after two thousand rounds through it.
131.8 dB at the muzzle on a 16″ DI 5.56 rifle — 37.7 dB of reduction against a ~169.5 dB unsuppressed baseline. Cloak's Tesla-valve baffles trap and redirect gas through a self-torquing core. No shims, no spanner wrenches, no re-timing after service. Full-auto rated on a 5.56 barrel as short as 11.5″.
Every can rated for full-auto on the barrel lengths our end users are running. Destruction testing complete. Serialized and lifetime-warrantied. Consistent shot-to-shot.
Cloak's gas architecture turns each baffle into a one-way trap for expanding gas. Threads self-torque under fire — no shims to lose, nothing to re-time when you strip it for cleaning.
Muzzle rise, flash, and blast are what give a position away. We engineer around all three — measured on our range, published with the method and conditions beside the number.
Absolute suppressed sound level, one meter left of muzzle. Shorter bar is quieter. The blue line marks the commonly cited 140 dB hearing-safe threshold for impulse noise. Figures from our January 2026 testing, ±2 dB.
Every Echo Trace can is designed to come apart. Bodies and cores are user-serviceable — no ultrasonic shop trip, no manufacturer return. Bring your body back at any point in its life; we'll rebuild it with a new core through the Upgrade Program.

Aberdeen, North Carolina. Founded by operators who got tired of buying cans they couldn't service and reading marketing they couldn't verify. Three partners, no outside investors, one obsession — the number at the meter.
