The 22 LR is a versatile cartridge whether you’re using it for teaching, plinking, or hunting small pests and varmints. And if you want to make it even better, you suppress it. Now there’s a rimfire suppressor available from FN America, and it promises top-tier performance. The FN Catch 22 Ti is made with attention to detail and a demand for superior performance, and it’s available now.
FN America, LLC is launching the FN Catch 22 Ti, the manufacturer’s first rimfire suppressor and the second installment in their family of suppressors (the FN Rush 9Ti, which was released in 2022, being the first). The rimfire Catch 22 Ti is designed to be a lightweight, durable suppressor that’s optimized for versatility and performance. This suppressor is designed to deliver unmatched reliability and made to turn a day at the range into a quiet blast.
Chris Cole, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for FN America, LLC, said:
With the successful release of the 9mm Rush 9Ti last year, tackling the rimfire category is the next logical step as we expand our suppressor lineup and develop accessories that enhance our suppressor-ready firearms. The FN Catch 22 Ti is an extremely small and tough rimfire suppressor with very effective sound reduction and impressive reliability given the wide variety of .22 ammunition. While it delivers all these benefits to shooters in a compact and lightweight package, it’s also a blast when paired with an FN 502 Tactical.
According to FN, reliability was a key performance metric when it came to the development of the Catch 22 Ti due in part to the wide variability of commercially available 22 ammunition. The Catch 22 Ti was put through rigorous endurance testing while paired with the FN 502 Tactical and a selection of other .22-caliber firearms. It was also tested with a variety of common rimfire ammunition loads to test functional reliability and platform adaptability.
John Ryan, Director of Product Management for FN America, LLC., said:
During testing, FN ran the FN 502 Tactical suppressed with the FN Catch 22Ti to very high round counts, stopping only to perform routine cleaning and lubrication along the way. The combination ran flawlessly from start to finish with zero malfunctions, which speaks volumes about the robust design of the Catch 22.
Specs and Features
The suppressor weighs in at approximately 5 ounces and measures 5.25 inches in length, so it doesn’t add significant weight or length to the gun. Its titanium-hybrid construction provides fantastic balance when used with the FN 502 Tactical. The Catch 22 Ti features a titanium tube with a Cerakote finish rated for high temperatures, giving it exceptional durability and resistance to wear. The baffle stack is made up of a stainless-steel blast baffle that’s been tempered for superior heat resistance and an aircraft-grade aluminum baffle stack for excellent strength. A tool is included for the quick removal of the end cap and baffle stack so cleaning and maintenance are easy to accomplish.
The FN Catch 22 Ti is rated for the 22LR, 22 Mag, 22 WMR, and 17 HMR.
MSRP for the FN America Catch 22 Ti is not known at this time.
