What is CanCo?
CanCo is a small 07/02 FFL/SOT manufacturing facility based in Middle Georgia, specializing in the design and production of tough, lightweight, and ultra-quiet silencers. What started as a one-man gunsmith shop has grown into a dedicated team of 2A enthusiasts, committed to engineering the most durable and effective suppressors on the market.
Rooted in old-school principles, CanCo combines serviceability, competitive pricing, and next-level customer service with modern machining innovations to continuously push the boundaries of silencer performance.
Our Origin Story:
CanCo was born out of passion and resilience. Following the 2008 banking and housing collapse, our founder transitioned into gunsmithing, officially opening shop in 2014. Determined to master his craft, he pursued a two-year machinist credential, setting the foundation for precision manufacturing.
By 2020, CanCo took a major leap forward, investing in a CNC mill to streamline silencer production. Around this time, Dalton Buice, a highly skilled machinist, joined the team. His expertise in CNC programming and machining efficiency helped refine and optimize CanCo’s silencer line for maximum performance and sound reduction.
In 2022, CanCo developed the Dirty Harry silencer after receiving a special request for a silencer to run on a .300 Win Mag Noreen BN36 gas gun. The results were so impressive that the team perfected the design for public release—and today, it’s on its 14th revision, proving that we never stop innovating.
