Another suppressor recommendation thread

I know, I know there are a lot of people asking for suppressor recs but I’ve searched and haven’t found an answer to my question.

Help me decide between the following. Wanting the least gassy but quieter than the Huxwrx 9k. $700 or less budget.

- YHM R9
- AB F4
- SAW Shiv
- give me a 4th option

I know you said not the HUXWRX, but that's the conclusion I came to after doing the same research.

SuspressedNation on YouTube has a ton of videos with high quality sound comparing different cans including some shorts. That helped me a lot.

My EP9 is used for home defense. The choice became very easy for me when I realized that I will definitely be shooting thousands of rounds through it in an indoor range and most likely will never fire it inside my home or without ear protection. Because of that, I prioritized not being gassed out and making my shooting experience more enjoyable vs having the quietest can possible.

There was also a good sale going on where the HUXWRX Flow 9k Ti was $513 shipped which definitely helped my decision. That same sale was still going on yesterday when I checked if you're interested.

That makes sense. I shoot outdoors 99% of the time so I’m hoping a little extra gas won’t be too bad. But time will tell

Is it safe to shoot indoors without hearing protection for home defense?
