Description
Most rimfire suppressors are light. The Anechoic PipSqueak 22 is in another category entirely. At 1.5 ounces, this thing weighs less than a Ruger Mark IV magazine, and at 3.5 inches long with a 1.1 inch diameter, it barely changes the profile of whatever you thread it onto. Hang it on a lightweight .22 pistol or a trim little rifle and the gun still balances like there is nothing on the muzzle at all. That is the whole point of this can, and Anechoic nailed it.
What Makes the PipSqueak 22 So Light
The recipe is aerospace-grade 7075-T6 aluminum paired with Grade 5 titanium, wrapped in a black Cerakote finish. The titanium thread insert is a smart touch, since it resists carbon lock and thread galling over the long haul, which matters on a can that will spend its life caked in rimfire fouling. The faceted exterior looks sharp too, a nice change from the plain round tubes that dominate the rimfire shelf. It is essentially a shortened version of Anechoic's AnechoX 22, so the design has proven bones behind it.
Feeding the PipSqueak
The fixed 1/2×28 thread pattern fits nearly every threaded rimfire barrel out there, and the .224 inch maximum bore clearance means it handles .22 Short, .22 LR, .22 WMR, and .17 HMR. It is even full-auto rated up to 100 rounds of .22 LR and rapid-fire rated to 25 rounds of .22 Mag, which is more abuse tolerance than most people will ever throw at a rimfire can. Just keep in mind it is strictly a rimfire suppressor and not rated for .223 or 5.56.
A Fun Can for Serious Plinking
Whether you are teaching a new shooter, thinning out squirrels, or just burning through a brick of ammo on a Saturday, the PipSqueak 22 makes rimfire shooting quieter and more enjoyable without adding bulk. Small can, big grin.

Frequently Asked Questions
What calibers can I shoot through the Anechoic PipSqueak 22?
The PipSqueak 22 handles .22 Short, .22 LR, .22 WMR, and .17 HMR, with a maximum bullet diameter of .224 inch. It is a dedicated rimfire can, so it is not rated for .223 or 5.56. That flexibility covers just about every popular rimfire rifle and pistol out there.
Will the PipSqueak 22 fit my threaded .22 pistol or rifle?
Almost certainly, as long as your barrel has the standard 1/2×28 thread pitch. That is the most common rimfire thread pattern on the market, so guns like the Ruger 10/22 with a threaded barrel, Mark IV, S&W Victory, and most threaded bolt guns will thread right on. The mount is a fixed direct thread with a titanium insert that resists carbon lock.
How much weight does the PipSqueak 22 add to my gun?
Barely any. At roughly 1.5 ounces, it weighs less than most .22 pistol magazines, so your gun keeps its natural balance even on a lightweight host. If muzzle-heavy handling has kept you away from suppressed rimfire shooting, this can solves that problem.
Can I run the PipSqueak 22 hard during rapid fire?
It is full-auto rated up to 100 rounds of .22 LR and rapid-fire rated to 25 rounds of .22 Mag, which is plenty for high-volume plinking. The manufacturer does advise reducing round counts with shorter barrels and keeping the suppressor under 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Give it a breather between fast strings and it will serve you well.
