Orders over $100 ship free to dealers nationwide.

Unlike many manufacturers, Dead Air cannot ship directly to consumers. All purchases go through their dealer network:

1. Use their Dealer Locator to find authorized shops near you 2. Select your suppressor model and mounting system 3. Submit Form 4 with your dealer (ATF NFA registration) 4. Wait for approval and take possession

Dead Air actively works with wholesalers like Davidson's and participates in industry shows (NRAAM, SHOT Show, NBS Semi-Annual Market) to keep dealers supplied.

Dead Air's leadership includes:

• •Todd Magee - Chief Engineer who oversees suppressor development
• •Benjamin Bachmeier - Senior Director of Product Development (hired 2024)
