2. Do you actually have to clean your silencers? Well, eventually, maybe. Why would it matter at all? Is it hard? It doesn’t have to be. We have received some questions from new silencer owners, so let’s go over some basics when it comes to basic silencer maintenance! Let’s talk about the technical reasons regarding why you would need to clean a silencer. This might be Part 1 of 2. (00:35:31)

Errata: In the initial publication of this article, the measured tested weight of the AC22 was listed as 2.8 ounces, which was in error. The correct tested weight of the AC22 is 3.3 ounces.
