The Griffin Armament PSD 223W BRC Black is a 9.5-inch suppressor built for .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO rifles. It combines stainless steel internal components with a 7075-T6 aluminum outer tube, finished in a black BRC coating. As a sound suppressor, it is a restricted-transfer item; buying one requires additional federal paperwork and an approved transfer before it changes hands.

Detailed Features 

• Reduces sound signature and muzzle blast on .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO rifles while keeping a compact 9.5-inch overall length. 
• Internal components are stainless steel, built to hold up across repeated firing sessions. 
• The outer tube is 7075-T6 aluminum, keeping the added weight in check for the length. 
• Finished in BRC Black for a uniform, low-visibility look on a black rifle build. 
• Because it is a sound suppressor, purchase requires additional federal paperwork and dealer processing beyond a standard firearm sale.

Suppressor owners buying into the Griffin Armament PSD line generally report solid build quality, noting the aluminum tube and stainless internals hold up well to regular range and hunting use without shifting point of impact over time.

Because the PSD sits on the shorter, more compact end for a .223/5.56 can, most shooters find it keeps a rifle's balance and overall length manageable, especially on shorter-barreled builds. A few owners note that any suppressor adds some forward weight, so they pair it with a lighter handguard for quicker handling.

The PSD 223W is often picked for its blend of size and mounting compatibility with common muzzle devices, though buyers usually confirm thread pitch before ordering. The wait for suppressor paperwork is the most frequently mentioned downside, and it's a function of the purchase process rather than the product itself.
