Taurus Just Dropped a Rimfire Can — Here’s Why TX22 Owners Should Care

Taurus TTX22 titanium rimfire suppressor

Taurus just walked into the suppressor game with a three-can lineup called the TTX series. The one that matters most for a lot of us is the TTX22 — a lightweight titanium rimfire suppressor they basically built to live on a TX22.

I’ve been running TX22s for years (full-size review and upgrades videos are linked below), and I’ve got TX22 Compact content in the pipeline. A factory can that threads straight onto those guns, at a $299.99 MSRP, is the kind of news that actually changes how people build a rimfire setup.

Same series also includes the TTX9C (fixed-barrel 9mm / PCC) and TTX30 (.30 cal rifle can). This article is about the rimfire one.

Why it fits a TX22 / TX22 Compact

Taurus TX22 pistols ship suppressor-ready with a 1/2-28 thread (adapter collar on the standard TX22; threaded barrel on Competition and many Gen 2 / Compact configs). The TTX22 uses that same pitch. No adapter gymnastics — thread it on and shoot.

At 3.71 ounces and about 5.5 inches, this is a “leave it on” kind of can for a rimfire pistol. On a full-size TX22 it shouldn’t turn the gun into a front-heavy brick. On a TX22 Compact it’ll add length, sure, but the weight penalty is tiny compared to a lot of steel rimfire cans.

It’s also rated past .22 LR into .22 WMR, .17 HMR, and 5.7×28. So if you’ve got a magnum rimfire rifle or a 5.7 host with 1/2×28, you’re not locked into a .22-only tube. For most TX22 owners, though, this is a dedicated plinker / steel / small-game hearing-saver.

Practical shooter notes (no meter talk)

I’m not going to throw manufacturer sound-reduction numbers at you or pretend I’ve metered a production unit yet. What I care about on a rimfire can:

  • Sound at the ear with standard and subsonic .22 LR — is it comfortable for a long plinking session without muffs, or do you still want ears for magnum stuff?
  • Balance and handling on a TX22 and TX22 Compact — does the front end stay usable for one-handed steel and two-handed groups?
  • POI shift when you thread it on and take it off (Taurus talks a lot about POI consistency in the press materials; that’s something to verify on the range).
  • How dirty it gets. Rimfire cans eat lead and powder. Taurus says the rimfire TTX doesn’t need to come apart for cleaning — monocore, flush/solvent style. That can be a blessing or a curse depending on how well the core sheds fouling. Worth watching over a few bricks of ammo, not one mag.

Until I have one in hand, treat this as a first-look / news piece, not a full review.

Value

$299.99 MSRP for a titanium, full-auto-rated (per Taurus) rimfire can from a company that already owns a huge chunk of the suppressor-ready .22 pistol market is aggressive pricing — especially in a year when the federal transfer tax on suppressors is $0. You still do the NFA paperwork and dealer transfer; the tax line is just not the $200 hit it used to be.

Street prices will vary. As of drafting (Oct 5, 2026 ET):

I didn’t find it stocked on PSA, Brownells, or Natchez at draft time.

Where this goes from here

If Taurus sends one for T&E, the plan is a dedicated can video on a TX22 / TX22 Compact, then keep it on the gun for later rimfire content. Until then: specs are solid, the host fit is obvious, and the price is in “why wouldn’t you look at it” territory for anyone already running a threaded TX22.
