The Return of Mike Pappas! - Shark Coast Podcast #60

Описание: In Episode 60 of the Shark Coast Podcast, the crew sits down with Mike Pappas, founder of Dead Air Armament, for a candid, wide-ranging conversation covering suppressor innovation, industry history, and what the future holds for the NFA world. Mike breaks down Dead Air’s origins, the revolutionary impact of products like the Sparrow, Mask, and Sandman, and how additive manufacturing is reshaping suppressor design from the ground up.

The discussion dives into the anticipated removal of the suppressor tax stamp, what that could mean for demand and market stability, and how companies are positioning themselves for rapid change. Along the way, Mike shares personal stories—from fixing beat-up Buicks and driving to SHOT Show, to maintaining privacy in an increasingly online industry—offering a rare look at the human side of a major firearms brand.

With insights on regulatory pressure, forced reset triggers, industry secrecy, upcoming Dead Air launches, and the importance of serviceable, purpose-driven design, this episode blends technical knowledge with humor and real-world perspective. Whether you’re a suppressor owner, industry insider, or just suppressor-curious, Episode 60 delivers a deep dive into where the market has been—and where it’s headed next.
