Bushmaster Releases the MUTA II BM556 Suppressor

It seems like everyone is involved in the suppressor game these days, including Bushmaster Firearms. That’s a good thing as far as I’m concerned, because that means the suppressor market is alive and thriving. They just released their MUTA II BM556, the next generation of the original MUTA suppressor line.

The Bushmaster MUTA II BM556 Suppressor

Bushmaster is touting the MUTA II as being lighter, quieter, and more compact than the original Bushmaster MUTA suppressor. It’s just 5.65 inches long and weighs only 12.25 ounces. It’s the lightest and shortest 5.56 dedicated suppressor that Bushmaster has made so far. The MUTA II BM556 reduces the sound signature on 5.56 NATO rounds by a 14.0% reduction at the left ear, a 15.4% reduction at the muzzle, and a 15.9% reduction at the right ear.

While compact, it’s built tough and designed to efficiently dissipate heat and deliver exceptional accuracy and repeatability. It’s made to maintain accuracy due to the suppressors’ concentricity being machined to tight tolerances. This also leads to a minimal point of impact shift. Bushmaster’s custom baffle design is made to help with felt recoil, flash, and enhanced sound reduction as well.

The MUTA II BM556 is 3D-printed with Inconel 625. Inconel 625 is a nickel-based superalloy that was designed in the 1990’s. It offers high strength properties and resistance to elevated temperatures, which make it perfect for suppressor use. The MUTA II has a rugged Cerakote finish to further enhance the durability of the suppressor. It has a threaded front cap and removable baffles, so it’s easily user-serviceable.

The MUTA II comes with a 1/2 X 28 thread pitch and is designed for 5.56mm and .223 Remington caliber platforms, and is full auto rated. MSRP is $709.95.
