Smith Enterprise Fans: M14 & M1A Parts and Upgrades: Wind Talker Sound Suppressor: Demo Videos

This page collects demo videos of the Wind Talker sound suppressor made by Smith Enterprise, Inc. (SEI) of Tempe, Arizona. All four were first posted on this blog in 2011.

In the videos, SEI's Andy Horton and a colleague fire unsuppressed and suppressed strings with supersonic and subsonic ammunition, run the suppressor on a Colt 9 mm submachine gun, test an improved internal design, and shoot the 1080 LW version of a new 5.56 mm prototype on a 16 inch barrel. The original posts describe the Wind Talker as rebuildable and field cleanable.

Supersonic vs. Subsonic Demo

We fire the weapon first unsuppressed, then suppressed with supersonic ammo, then suppressed with subsonic ammo. As you can see at the end, the only thing you can here is the bolt going forward. Pretty quiet.

Andy Horton from SEI fires a Colt 9 mm sub machine gun with two different types of ammo in two different configurations (suppressed and unsuppressed). He is using the highly acclaimed SEI Wind Talker Sound Suppressor. Our sound suppressor is rebuildable and field cleanable. Listen to the quality of the sound suppression even without using subsonic ammunition.

Andy Shoots SEI New Version of Wind Talker on a Colt 9 mm Sub Machine Gun

We are improving the Wind Talker Sound Suppressor. We are improving the internal components. Can't get into too much detail on here as it is proprietary, but we are very pleased with how the testing is going! The video Andy shoots the Colt Defense 9 mm Sub Machine Gun with 115 Gr Unsupressed, 115 Gr Suppressed, and 147 Sub Sonic Suppressed. What is HUGE is the fact that there is significant sound reduction on the 115 Gr. Suppressed. We are very happy with the continued development of our systems. Please stay tuned and thanks for all the support out there.

This sound suppressor is the 1080 LW version of our new 5.56 mm prototype. It includes a new internal baffling system. As we continue to test these and make upgrades and changes we will post videos so you can see the progress. We are very happy with how this Wind Talker is improving.
In both instances we are shooting M4 5.56 mm 62 Gr. Green Tip Supersonic Ammo. The barrel is a 16 inch barrel. The first set of rounds is unsuppressed and the second set is suppressed.
