In addition, you can use your choice of materials, specific dimensions and custom designs to build a can that matches your needs precisely. And my full titanium 5.56mm build cost about $350. For example, my combination titanium, steel and aluminum 9mm suppressor cost about $150 (not including a booster). So why would you want to build your own silencer?
