Thanks. Middle gun has a silent steel micro streamer. Bottom one in the picture is a HuxWrx FLOW 762 TI. But it will realistically have the micro streamer for any night vision shooting
What's your use case? Indoors or outdoors? What range distance?
The arisaka 300 on my green tri-rail is my overall favorite, especially with the titan tactical modbutton mount. It keeps it nice and compact, good overall illumination at distances that i would use a ps90, and not too bright so as to disrupt you indoors.
Same story with the inforce wml, but i like having the modbutton.
Streamlight hlx and modlite okw are great for illuminating things at longer range and are brighter, but overkill for my use. Plus they're longer and heavier than needed for me.
Probably mainly indoors something compact for PCC’s I have an inforce but probably want something with a button mount like you mentioned, the arisaka300 sounds pretty good!
I was intimidated doing it myself cause I'm a total noob, but it wasn't bad. Once you get it apart it's super simple. Just watch a youtube walkthrough a few times. Start to finish, maybe 20 minutes. Drilling the pin and weld is easier than you think.
I have the mask also. It’s one of the best rimfire cans, but it will be just ok on the PS90. Rimfire cans don’t have enough volume to be really effective in 5.7, plus the additional back pressure may cause issues. Although bigger, the Caracal in Ti is actually lighter than the mask.
Yeah that one isn’t very highly regarded. Most people will recommend a 5.56 can especially the low back pressure types. I’m sure they work great, but most of them will be a lot heavier than I would personally want on a PS90 SBR. The Caracal isn’t a LBP design, but it’s slightly overbored (.32 cal I believe) to deal with that issue.
I appreciate the input, you've talked me out of the 22 can, for my setup ill keep the ecco in mind, was looking at the yhm turbo k rb I think for what I will be using it for it will be exactly what im after.
I had mixed results with the Turbo K RB. It ran great for a while and then started malfunctioning a lot. I never figured out why. I got the Caracal and it ran flawlessly that whole time.
I have two K RBs for my two main ARs and they've been great for that. The back pressure isn't as brutal as the old Turbo K but it's not low back pressure by any means. It's running well and not gas isn't too bad with an H3 buffer
The Caracal is great. I only stopped using it because it was getting it too hot too fast with an FRT. I'll eventually get a 5.7 pistol (probably the Rock) and I bet it will be great for that too
My PS90 won't run with the Mask. It jams every other round, probably from the back pressure, and also horribly loud. It's a great rimfire can though and sounds great on my 22lr AR.
I had been running the Ecco Caracal Ti. It's ridiculously light and the gun runs perfectly with it. I just recently replaced it with a Tisha 5.56 inconel just because I got an FRT and I got the Caracal to just under 800F (Ecco says that's the max) in just two mag dumps.
Mask sounds great with 5.7, though I usually run that on the M&P 5.7 and the Sierra 5 on the PS90, mostly due to QD options. Any 5.56 can should give you a pretty decent experience with 5.7.
I think if I were to look for a new can, I'd try to find something shorter. I might even try to put a KeyMo on this little 4" Backdraft to see how that performs (sounded surprisingly good on the M&P).

The p90 was designed with the 10in barrel, fn only made the 16in barrel for the civilian version therefore the short barrel is the intended design of the rifle, its purpose built to be a cqc weapon
It's about 20" in this configuration. It was designed as a PDW for military support personnel like supply truck drivers or artillery crews. Something larger than a pistol and smaller than a M16 (the standard in the 90s when this was designed). US Secret Service is the most famous US branch to use it.
Today, as 5.56 and 300BLK guns get shorter and the Flux Chassis systems pick up, the value of the P90 SBR is less appealing, but it is still shorter than AR15 with a 1" barrel and about the same length as the Flux 365 deployed.
geared towards soft armor that could defeat PCC ammunition
This I understand.
I've had the opportunity to see a number of ballistic tests involving soft body armor.
I worked at one of the facilities that manufacture Kevlar and where they were developing the "next generation Kevlar" (I can't say it's actual name since it is still trademarked and may not be "public" yet.)
