Dead Air has been crafting silencers and muzzle devices for quite a long time now with some of their lines, like the Sandman series, eclipsing a full decade of production. Recently, Dead Air announced a new silencer at SHOT Show 2025 that is a culmination of that decade of progress in the Sandman X .30 Cal silencer.

Dead Air Sandman X .30 Cal Silencer
Some of the highlights of the new Sandman X are the additive process in which it is manufactured. By using a 3D-printing, additive process, companies like Dead Air can make silencers in new shapes and designs that were previously impossible with older milling and machining techniques. This opens the door for their new advanced Triskelion
Gas Management System technology – an innovative, 3D printed baffle system that reduces weight, boosts strength, improves thermal performance, and greatly minimizes gas blowback.
