If you’ve ever run a suppressor on a rifle that wasn’t set up for it, you know the pain points fast. The muzzle is threaded, sure, but the barrel is too long, the balance goes weird, and now your “handy” rifle feels like you’re carrying a canoe paddle through the brush. Some rifles also make mounting a can feel like an afterthought, with awkward clearances and hardware choices that force you into workarounds.
The 2025 crop has a different vibe. More makers are building rifles with suppressor use in mind: shorter barrels, common thread patterns, and features that help the rifle stay manageable once the suppressor is installed. None of this turns you into a better shot on its own, but it does remove friction. When the setup is easy, you practice more, you hunt with less blast, and you spend less time fighting your gear.
Winchester XPR SR
You want a hunting rifle that’s ready for a can without turning into a flagpole. The XPR SR is built around that idea: a shorter 20-inch barrel, factory threading, and a setup meant to wear a suppressor or a brake without drama. That matters when you’re carrying it all day and then trying to settle in on a shot without extra length fighting you or snagging on brush.
Winchester tagged it as a SHOT Show Special for 2025, and the key feature is clear: the barrel is threaded for an optional suppressor, with common thread sizes across most chamberings and a shorter barrel to help balance the added length. Add your can, confirm your zero, and you’re not stuck reinventing the rifle to make it work suppressed.
Savage 110 Pro Pursuit Rifle
A suppressor-ready rifle isn’t much use if the rest of the package hates bad weather. The 110 Pro Pursuit Rifle was built with real field use in mind, pairing a corrosion-resistant barreled action with a muzzle that’s already set up for a can. That means less worrying about rust, less babying your rifle, and more time focusing on the hunt when the forecast turns ugly.
Savage lists it as new for 2025, and the details matter: a 20-inch Proof Research carbon-fiber-wrapped barrel threaded 5/8×24, plus an Omniport muzzle brake. You can run it braked, swap to a suppressor, and keep overall length in a workable range. With a 20 MOA rail and a hunting-weight build, it’s a modern big-game rig that’s ready on day one.
Christensen Arms Evoke
Lightweight rifles can get obnoxious fast when you thread on a suppressor, especially if the rifle wasn’t designed around that extra weight out front. The Evoke is aimed at hunters who want a trim rifle that still plays nicely with a can, instead of turning into a nose-heavy chore after the first range session. It’s the kind of rifle you can carry all day and still like shooting.
Outdoor Life noted the Evoke’s suppressor-ready 5/8×24 threaded muzzle as part of what makes it a practical new rifle pick. That’s the feature that keeps life easy: screw on the suppressor you already own, keep your barrel length reasonable, and get the blast reduction you want without needing custom work. Add a thread protector when the can is off and you’re set.
Christensen Arms Evoke Precision
Some rifles feel great on a sling, then get frustrating the moment you start shooting prone with a can and a bipod. The Evoke Precision leans the other direction: more support for positional shooting, more stability, and a barrel setup that’s meant to live with a suppressor attached. If you like stretching things out across a cut bean field, that approach feels familiar fast in real wind.
Shooting Illustrated lists the Evoke Precision as part of the new-for-2025 lineup and notes its suppressor-ready barrel. The point is straightforward: you get factory threading and a system designed to run suppressed without strange compromises. You mount the can, verify your dope, and spend your time on wind calls and trigger work, not on hardware drama or improvised adapters.
Browning X-Bolt 2 All Purpose
A suppressor adds length and weight, so the rifle needs to carry and shoot well once that can is installed. The X-Bolt 2 All Purpose is built around a heavy sporter barrel that’s already threaded, which keeps you from having to choose between a modern muzzle and a rifle you actually like to hunt with. It also gives you a barrel profile that won’t feel whippy when you start practicing in longer strings.
In Shooting Illustrated’s roundup of new rifles for 2025, the All Purpose is described with a threaded 5/8-24 muzzle. That’s a big deal when you want to run a suppressor, then swap to a brake without a gunsmith visit. You get a rifle that can handle day-to-day hunting, but it’s still prepared for suppressed range work and real practice.
Mossberg Patriot Carbine
Suppressors are great, but nobody wants a long, awkward rifle in tight cover or in and out of a truck. The Patriot Carbine is designed to stay compact, which is exactly what you want when the muzzle is going to grow by several inches the moment you thread on a can. A short bolt gun that points fast is easier to live with, and it’s easier to keep on target for quick follow-up shots.
Mossberg introduced the Patriot Carbine as a new-for-2025 option, and the company makes the intent obvious: this is a shorter, suppressor-ready bolt gun built around factory muzzle threads. It’s the kind of rifle that keeps handling familiar even after you add a suppressor. For hogs in thick stuff or a farm rifle that gets carried a lot, the size and threading are the whole point.
Mossberg MVP Patrol Professional
The MVP Patrol has always been aimed at practical use, and the Professional version leans harder into that role. A rifle that’s going to ride behind a truck seat or get carried around the property needs to accept a suppressor without fuss. It also needs to stay handy, because a long rifle is a pain in real life when you’re stepping over gates, brush, and tool piles.
American Rifleman’s look at Mossberg’s 2025 updates describes the MVP Patrol Professional with a threaded barrel and a thread protector. That’s the suppressor-ready detail you want on a working rifle: direct mounting, no extra machining, and threads that stay protected when the can is off. Add your suppressor, confirm function, and the rifle stays in its lane as a practical, carry-a-lot tool.
Smith & Wesson Model 1854 Stealth Hunter
Lever guns and suppressors used to feel like two separate worlds. The Stealth Hunter version of the Model 1854 is proof that’s changing, and it’s aimed at the hunter who wants a handy, fast rifle that doesn’t hammer everyone’s ears on a quick shot in the timber. It also fits the way a lot of people hunt now: close-to-mid ranges, fast opportunities, and plenty of walking.
American Rifleman notes the Stealth Hunter’s short barrel is threaded for suppressor use, which is the key feature here. A lever gun with factory threads lets you tame blast while keeping the rifle compact enough to move through brush. Run it suppressed for hogs, deer, or property work, and you end up with a lever gun that feels current without losing what makes the platform fun to shoot.
Bushmaster V-Radicator
A suppressor-friendly semi-auto needs more than a threaded muzzle. It needs a layout that keeps the rifle controllable and comfortable once you add weight at the front, and it needs components that are meant to work together instead of being a random parts build. When the can goes on, you notice balance and heat control more than most people expect.
Shooting Illustrated lists the V-Radicator in its new-for-2025 rifles and highlights a threaded barrel among the features. That factory threading is step one for running a can, and it keeps you out of the “send it to a smith” loop. Set it up with your suppressor, confirm function with the ammo you stockpile, and keep the rifle in a practical configuration you can actually train with.
Primary Weapons Systems MK118 MOD 2
If you shoot suppressed on a regular basis, gas control becomes the difference between a pleasant rifle and a dirty, overgassed mess. The MK118 MOD 2 is built with that reality in mind, aiming for a setup that can run with a suppressor without beating you up or choking on fouling. It’s the kind of rifle you can shoot hard without feeling like you’re eating blowback all afternoon.
Shooting Illustrated points out that PWS includes a gas block you can tune on this new-for-2025 rifle. That’s the feature that matters once the suppressor stays on the muzzle for most of your shooting. You tune the gas to your can, keep recoil behavior steadier, and cut down on the extra mess that makes suppressed sessions feel rough. The result is a rifle designed to live suppressed, not a rifle that merely tolerates it.
Henry Lever Action Supreme
Suppressors and lever guns pair well when the rifle is built for it, especially in cartridges that were already meant to run quiet. The Lever Action Supreme stands out because it brings a modern, suppressor-ready mindset to a platform that normally gets treated as a nostalgia piece. You get lever-gun handling, but the rifle is set up for modern muzzle devices without you having to chase aftermarket barrels.
Shooting Illustrated’s 2025 roundup notes the rifle has a threaded barrel and mentions chamberings like 300 Blackout. That combination makes sense for anyone who wants a quiet, handy hunting rifle for deer inside woods ranges, or for hogs and coyotes where blast control matters. With factory threads, you mount your suppressor and go, and the rifle still carries like a lever gun should.
Savage Revel DLX
The best suppressor hosts are often rimfires, because the payoff is immediate and the cost per trigger pull stays low. The Revel DLX fits that role well: light, easy to carry, and built to accept a suppressor without any extra work. It’s also the type of rifle you can hand to a new shooter without them getting beat up by noise or recoil.
Shooting Illustrated lists the Revel DLX among the new rifles for 2025 and notes its threaded muzzle. That one detail changes how often the rifle gets used, because a suppressed rimfire is the kind of gun you grab for everything. Add a can, pick ammo it likes, and you end up practicing more because the rifle is quieter and more comfortable for long strings and quick follow-up shots.
Franklin Armory F22 Rifle
A rimfire that’s suppressor-ready is a training shortcut. You get the same trigger time and the same sight work, but you do it with less noise and less flinch. The F22 Rifle leans into that purpose and keeps the setup straightforward so you spend your time shooting instead of wrenching. That matters when you’re trying to stack reps, not chase gear.
Shooting Illustrated includes the F22 Rifle in its 2025 list and mentions a threaded barrel paired with a thread protector. That’s exactly what you want in a rimfire that will bounce between range days and pest control. Run it with the suppressor for quiet practice, then cap the threads and keep it clean when you’re carrying it around the property or tossing it in a truck.
Fightlite Herring Model 2024
A wood-stocked semi-auto can still be suppressor-ready, and that’s part of what makes the Herring interesting. It gives you classic handling, but it also keeps pace with modern expectations like factory muzzle threads. That means you can run it suppressed without turning a traditional-looking rifle into a custom shop experiment. You end up with a rifle that feels familiar while shooting in a more controlled, repeatable way overall.
Shooting Illustrated’s new-for-2025 coverage notes the Herring Model 2024 includes a threaded barrel. With a suppressor mounted, you get less blast and a calmer shooting experience, especially for repetitive range work. It’s a reminder that suppressor-friendly design doesn’t have to look aggressive to be practical. The feature that matters is still the same: factory threads that work.
Winchester Xpert Suppressor Ready
A suppressor-ready rimfire is one of the easiest ways to get serious practice in without beating up your ears or your wallet. The Xpert Suppressor Ready is built around that idea, giving you a lightweight bolt gun with factory threading and a thread protector to keep things tidy when the suppressor is off. It’s also a smart setup for small game, where a quieter rifle is easier to hunt with.
Winchester lists the Xpert SR with a 1/2×28 threaded muzzle and a knurled thread protector, ready for an optional suppressor. That makes it an easy host for common rimfire cans whether you’re shooting on a small range or working around a farm. Quiet rifles get used more, and that’s the honest advantage. You shoot more rounds, learn more, and do it with less noise and less fuss.
