In this short episode of the Dwell Time Podcast, Griffin owners, Evan & Austin, discuss one of the biggest pieces of news to hit the suppressor industry in nearly 100 years of the NFA being enacted. Starting January 1st, 2026, as part of the passing of The Big Beautiful Bill, $200 tax stamps on suppressors, SBRs, and SBSs are going to be a thing of the past! This is a huge step towards a freer 2A community in line with the original intent of this all-important Amendment to the US Constitution.

Evan and Austin go over what this means for our customers of Griffin Armament heading into the new year.

In this episode of the Dwell Time Podcast, Lead Engineer, Austin, and Lead Programmer, Jeff, sit down with Rober Soong of MICROMOA LLC, to discuss the original development/invention of the MICROMOA Govnah Gas Block, and the new Griffin Armament Adjustable Gas Block. Griffin's gas block was made possible in part by acquiring two patents from MICROMOA pertaining to the Govnah.

The Griffin Adjustable AR-15 Gas Block provides normal and suppressed operation via rotationally sliding a regulator plate from the Normal position to the Suppressed position. This regulator plate is detented via a 718 inconel spring and ceramic ball bearing ensuring material strength under extreme operating temperatures. There are two 180° opposed sides of the regulator plate, each affording a normal and suppressed setting.

One side of the block is identifiable by two grooves cut on the side of the selector cutout. This allows a shooter to find the side of the disk that works best for an application. Once this initial setup has been determined, a one-click operation configures the rifle from normal to suppressed modes of operation. Griffin Currently supports firearms with Pistol to Rifle length gas systems, and compatibility for conventional or low backpressure suppressors.

Special thanks to Robert Soong of MICROMOA for his part in this project, and for coming out to demonstrate the new gas block with us. We have posted two videos on our YouTube channel showing the ejection pattern performance improvements, as well as a closeup on assembly and usage of the block.

The Griffin Adjustable AR-15 Gas Block is now available on our website, or at your local Griffin dealer!

In this episode of the Dwell Time Podcast, Griffin Armament owner Austin sits down with Inventory Manager, Kade, to discuss Griffin's first 3D printed suppressor: the Optimus 6.

The Optimus 6 is a 6mm bore multi-jet fusion additive manufactured (3D Printed) suppressor optimized for reducing system backpressure over "traditional" suppressors by way of its high-flow baffle design, while maintaining impressive flash and sound reduction. The quad-tine flash hider end cap was painstakingly tuned in conjunction with the low backpressure baffle stack to kill flash at a level almost unseen in other low backpressure suppressors available on the market.

Tune in for an in-depth conversation on Griffin's history and experience with additive manufacturing, and what makes the Optimus 6 silencer stand out amongst the bunch.
