A Diplomatic Security Service LinkedIn post displayed an issue carbine carrying what looks like a Radical Defense CS5-MOD1 Compact Suppressor fitted with a custom-length ModTac cover. DSS policy bars agents from using personal weapons, so the observed setup is identified as the outcome of a recent purchase of a new carbine suppressor.

DSS special agents protected visiting foreign dignitaries in Atlanta over the weekend during the G20 Foreign Ministers’ Meeting and coordinated those operations with partner law enforcement agencies. The same service is due to provide coverage in Miami in December for the G20 Leaders’ Summit.
