[SHOT 2025] Carbon Research Introduces New Big Bore Suppressor

Carbon Research have been around for about 8 years but it was only the last couple of years that they’ve been bringing their Carbon Fiber suppressors to the market. Taking 6 years to refine the base design they launched the 9mm CR9 last SHOT Show and now they’re expanding their caliber range, which already includes .22, 9mm and 300 Blk.

This year Carbon Research had their new Big Bore can at SHOT Show’s Industry at the Range Day. The Big Bore is a .45 caliber suppressor which can be used with rounds up to .458 SOCOM.

Carbon Research’s cans are constructed of a one piece Carbon Fiber body and baffles with a mix of Kevlar. The baffles are tipped with Titanium to protect them from damage and the attachment point and nose cap are also titanium. The suppressors are also coated with a proprietary resin which can withstand temperatures of up to 800F.

The company is also working on combining the Big Bore with an additional blast chamber to allow it to be used with .308 chambered rifles. This is in the final stages of development.

At the range Carbon Research has their whole range of suppressors, some mounted on Aris Arms firearms, including one chambered in 10mm Magnum developed by Underwood Ammunition.
