Q LLC Suppressor Heritage

After leaving AAC, Brittingham founded Q LLC to push suppressor engineering even further. Q’s entire product line is manufactured in Claremont, New Hampshire using aerospace-grade titanium and stainless steel with tight tolerances that ensure repeatable performance and longevity. Every suppressor is designed to honor the precision and reliability that made AAC legendary.

Key Specifications

Performance & Engineering

The Tall Boy is Q’s maximum-volume .308 suppressor, designed specifically for shooters who prioritize sound reduction over compact form factor. The extended chamber and optimized baffle stack create a large expansion volume that efficiently slows and cools high-pressure 7.62mm gases, resulting in approximately 34 dB of suppression—significant hearing protection on centerfire rifle platforms. The titanium construction keeps weight at just 14 ounces despite the larger volume, maintaining rifle balance while delivering auditory performance that justifies the investment.

The Quick Detach mounting system allows you to swap the Tall Boy between multiple 7.62 hosts in seconds without tools, making it an ideal choice for shooters running several rifles. Q’s engineering tolerances are tight enough that each suppressor maintains consistent performance and point-of-aim shift is minimal. Whether you’re running a precision bolt gun, modern semi-auto, or specialty platform, the Tall Boy’s modular QD system adapts to your setup while maintaining the durability and reliability Q is known for.
