I guarantee you if I had a mil to spend on guns I would have better stuff in my collection, like a Colt Monitor or an FG42 or a custom Mauser 98 safari rifle. I would absolutely buy an FK Brno Field Pistol like he has, because I really love my FK Brno PSD and would love to own the Field Pistol. That's about the only gun I saw of his that gave me the fizz. Oh, and I would absolutely own an M1 Thompson. A real transferable one.

who is this meant for lmao. Its too gaudy for the H&H Purdey W-R or Boss & co crowd (who could easily afford this) and too expensive for every one else.

to be completely fair i had a deposit on it until i was emailed the full price. if it was $10-$20k i'd get it to join a few others i have of silly fun guns, but not at $100k. $100k here and $100k there, soon enough you're starting to talk real money for a functional art piece. i would actually pay the price of a bitcoin plus $10k for meme value, which would be about $123k. but not without any btc at all.

very sad now. i wanted it next to my cabot 1911.

One day I'll own the forbidden 9mm mauser....
 
I'm potentially on the market for a 9mm suppressor, does anyone have any particular suggestions?

My basic requirements would be one that's compatible with both fixed and tilting barrels (basically every model I looked at the other day had this, but it's definitely something I want), 300 Blackout compatibility, and then a nice-to-have would be some level of modularity to the baffles. Doesn't need to be 100% customizable like the models with each individual baffle being removable but being able to swap between 6" and 10" would be nice. This is mostly what I'm hoping to hear opinions on, if modular suppressors are too much of a compromise over a sealed model to be worth it

I got excited for a minute when I googled modular 9mm suppressor and the Osprey 9 2.0 showed up as the first result since I like the boxy design and the rimfire version of the Osprey has the baffle-by-baffle modularity without the ugliness of a lot of the other ones but the only modularity it has is being able to swap between fixed and tilting barrels, otherwise it's completely sealed. Also I think it would probably interfere with any light longer than the barrel, not just blocking the beam but physically colliding with the light itself, so not ideal for my primary plans anyway (mostly running on a glock clone)

Don't get the Osprey. It's pretty outdated and while looks cool, there are better options. Espececially if you want to shoot 300BO.

Sealed cans are better IMO. They are often lighter. Don't really need to take baffles out to clean (they work better dirty). and if you do need to clean in the future, cleaners like "breakthrough suppressor cleaner" work amazing without any scrubbing.

And don't get stuck on modularity. While is sounds cool, most people eventually stick to one size. Over the years I now prefer smaller form factor vs maximum suppression; just to take the edge off.

Rugged Obsidian 9
-Modular
-Built like a tank but only technically rated for subsonic 300 blackout.
-Good company, warranty
-Looks kind of dumb on rifles/PCCs.

Sico Omega 9k (my favorite can)
-Simple
-Made from 17-4 Stainless
-Will handle supersonic 300 blackout.
-Works great as a PCC can
-They have a new titanium version called a "Spectre" but I wouldn't run supersonic 300 blackout through it often. Titanium doesn't like getting hot.

Otter creek lithium 9
-Extremely lightweight.
-Titanium, so you don't want to get it too hot with 300BO supers. Can handle subsonic all day.
-Company and owner is great

CAT street crack
-New 3d printed "flow through" hotness
-Less gassy than traditional supressors
-They have a modular version but its hard to find.
-Not really rated for 300 supers.
-Expensive

YHM R9
-Cheap
-Built like a tank and can handle stuff like 556.
-Nothing fancy.
-Fairly heavy
 
Just a cautionary tale of how hard they try to fuck you in these blue states.

I travel to one such state on behalf of work on a regular basis, so I've invested in a non-resident concealed carry license. The amount to get this license isn't a trivial sum, and I can see it being a reason low income people never have a means to defend themselves. In order to refresh the fucking thing on an annual basis, you need to provide a new payment 3 months prior to the license expiring. If you're a day late, you need to re-apply from the start. If payment bounces or goes missing, you need to re-apply from the start. "The start" means paying as much as $300 for a scam firearms training class from an "accredited" location (there's about 5 in the whole state) where some putrid gutter-beast explains to you what the hammer on a pistol is for five hours.

I receive an email from the jackos I buy my licenses from telling me that, because they haven't received payment, my existing concealed carry will be void. This is a week after my current one is set to expire. I have a return receipt for the renewal form, so there's no doubt they receive that. Then I have the receipt for a check and online record that it was cashed. All of this was sent 3 months prior, as I've been doing this for a few years now and schedule it as regularly as dentist checkups. I provide the email with all of this information and politely ask them to double-check their records. For the next month I don't receive any word back. When I call them, I'm told "we are working on this" and am hung up on.

Remember that if I were to theoretically visit the state in question with my concealed carry (no valid license) and somebody found it, let alone needed to use it, the penalty would be about three to five years in prison. This was the case for about five months; nearly half a year. After the third call in three months in they just let it ring out. I leave a message on their machine figuring that's just one more record that I've been trying to do things properly, but the fine police of (blue state) are dragging their feet so hard that it's functionally just a gun ban. Despite doing this for a couple of years, I'm beginning to wonder why I do it at all.

I finally a phone call from some other deputy confirming everything is in order and they've received all the necessary information. I ask why this took so long and the officer gets irate. I'm told verbatim "watch your tone with me" and told the license is being mailed that afternoon. It's another month before it arrives... I receive it this morning. I open up the envelope and find that the date on the license reads the original month I sent the form in.

Someone clearly printed out my renewed license, let it rot for half a year, then finally mailed it it to me. Which means I effectively paid money for a full year license, and received one I can only use for a couple of months. Which means I'll have to do all of this over again, leaving me without any sort of license for another half a year most likely.

I have never been happier to live in a state without these munted fuck-off gun laws. My true state of residence offers such a license and I paid like $50 for it, valid for a decade, reckoning I have something to point at if any future application in a worse state is denied ("They trust me so why don't you?")

It might not be your cup of tea if you were planning on using it with .300blk supers but I've had a pretty decent experience with my Huxwrx Cash9k. There is a bigger brother to it called the Rad9 which does get you that modularity to switch between a longer can and a k-can.
In my mind the ability to clean the baffles, especially for pistol and rimfire suppressors, is kind of important due to the amount of fouling they're going to see. That hurts volume inside the can which is a pretty large factor in terms of how well it suppresses.

HelpingNoone hit on the rest of the decent ones, I haven't had experience with anything from CAT or Otter Creek but I've heard nothing but great things from them.

I love my Cash9k too. I have the Rad9 which in short config is the same thing.

Though I think they discontinued it for a new Flow 9k Ti which is why I didn't mention it.

If you are wanting a rimfire can, buy a dedicated one. Not worth compromising on suppressors to get a non sealed can.

Yeah, I have a rimfire can rated for full auto 5.7x28 that's quiet enough for my purposes already, so I'm set for rimfire unless some hot new physics defying tech manages to drop. I did see one recently that was also rated for up to three rounds a minute of 5.56 which was enough to pique my interest but I'd rather have a dedicated big-boy rifle can for supersonic rifle rounds

Is there any major benefit for this on pistols? I've only ever seen people run them on rifles. I guess I don't really know exactly what it means, the main benefit I've seen people mention was that it has less backpressure, but if it spits less trash back at you/inside the gun too that sounds nice.

I don't have a .300bo just yet, I finally decided to bite the bullet and the upper I wanted was discontinued lol. Not super interested in supers, but even then I mostly just want it as a stop-gap/backup until I get a dedicated 30cal rifle can in the future. I don't get to do much rifle shooting (beyond .22lr) atm so it's lowest on my priority list

I'm glad you mentioned this one, I was going to ask about it because I've been eyeballing their entire product line. The only thing I'm worried about are baffle strikes, but I don't really know what the risks of those actually look like. How much is inevitability and how much is user error?

I don't have thousands of rounds on mine but the baffles are machines to lock together and everything stays pretty well centered any time I've spot checked it on a gun. The worst issue I had with that was actually an out of square aftermarket mount, no full strike but it did graze and shift from rubbing the endcap. It's why you should always spend the cash on a check rod. It's $60-80 for confidence that you won't damage $600 of can.

Any of the options people mentioned should serve you pretty well then. I'd also suggest looking at pew science, they have decibel comparisons between anything you might end up narrowing it down to if that matters a lot to you.

Finally picked up something ive had on the list for years, cant wait to lose the feeling in my hand blasting it
 
Hand stop for my Vector arrived today and I got it mounted. Feels nice and I like the reassurance of not having my hand slip off the handguard, especially when the suppressor gets hot.

More of "high-quality" "9mm" paki ammo production. This time we get to see the complete case forming chain, too.


In their defense, Pakistan might be the best place to survive an apocalypse event assuming they don't run out of food, the dudes can fabricate almost anything with the most barebone machinery.
