When you fire up Palmetto State Armory’s website, you know you’re going to find just about every firearm and accessory under the sun – exciting in-house builds included.
The retailer recently started selling suppressors, too. Now, they’re selling their own. Early signs suggest this is going to be one heck of a good buy.

At launch time, 5.56 NATO is the only cartridge option. I’d be shocked if others weren’t hot on its heels.
The Sabre BT5 comes in two sizes: 7.1 inches and 6.3 inches (both with a 1.73-inch diameter). You can choose from black or flat dark earth.
The 3D-printed helical design uses durable Inconel and aims to optimize sound suppression, minimize backpressure, and reduce visible flash signature.
It features standard HUB threading and ships with a Plan B flash hider so you have everything you need for installation.
The BT5 comes to us from the Sabre line. That’s PSA’s up-spec family of products, which includes feature-rich builds like the Sabre Dagger, Sabre-15, and Sabre AR-10 we reviewed.
And where does the BT5 name come from? This suppressor is a partnership with B&T, a company known for top-tier firearms and suppressors fit for special operations units around the world.
That’s a very promising sign because B&T cans rock.
Palmetto State Armory lists an MSRP of $799.99 for the Sabre BT5. It’s sold through Capitol Armory, so you can get your suppressor shipped to your door for free.
