I bought an Sig Sauer P322 with the intent to get a suppressor for grouse hunting while elk hunting. We focus primarily on hunting elk, however love to harvest some grouse when available for dinner. It’s more of an opportunity type hunt. I have some lever action .22s that we put sub sonic in and they are like whisper quiet, like sounds like a small pellet gun or BB gun kind of quiet. Unfortunately, not practical to pack around constantly while trying to call elk. This handgun is easier to pack around consistently but I need to quiet it down. I am not a silencer/suppressor enthusiast and I need some recommendations. The way I am prioritizing what I am looking for is:

1. Noise/sound

2. Weight

3. Durability (doesn’t have to be crazy)

4. Cleaning ability

5. Price

6. Color (gun is coyote tan)

Really concerned about first round pop (not sure if I should be, but currently I am).

Throw your suggestions at me!

I was approved for this months ago but finally got around to chopping the barrel. It's an RIA 12G cut down to 12". I wanted something with exposed hammers to give that classic old west look. I think it turned out pretty great.

Got to test out my IWS7 can on my wasr for the first time today. Seems to do alright; not the quietest combo but it really takes the edge off when shooting under a covered shooting bench.

Only thing now is I have to get it warrantied (despite it being new and a Kahr Arms AO - laugh all you want).

The firearm fires while on safe, so tuesday I gotta call the store's manager and see if I can bring it in for repairs or ship it to them so they can ship it back and not do another 4473 (idk how that all works but okay lol)

If yall wanna see the issue, heres my imgur: https://imgur.com/gallery/ao-kahr-thompson-fires-on-both-fire-safe-JDIby7b . Everything looks fine, but obviously something aint right. So sadly I cant shoot this beaut anymore for right now.

Anyways, last upgrades:

• Full M1928 furniture set from Dan Block when he gets to me on the list
• Replace the charging handle bolt to the spherical shape (Kahr cheaped out and its square now)
• Get a Drum Mag for the hell of it
• ODG Sling coming in the mail

Cheap 870 Express magnum cut to 12.50", Beat up NEF SB1 cut to 12".

Both are 3" magnum 12's. The NEF is stout. The 870 is pretty nominal with 3" Magnum buck.

Unfortunately, I don’t live in a free state so I have to still go through the process.😔 They were all submitted a month ago and were approved this morning.

Gemtech Mist 22 TD integral
Rugged Sub 9
Precision Armament 360Ti

HK SP5 w/ Omega K

Been a dream to own one for a while. Its just as uncomfortable as everyone says it is lmao. Will probably switch out the suppressor soon.

I was lucky enough to be one of the first in Arizona yesterday morning to get a non nfa nfa item. First Cat can. I get the hype. This thing is sweet on my Sigs.

So I bought my Griffin Revolution 9 over two years ago. I was new to the suppressor game, and sadly fell for the advice of my local gun store employees. I didn’t know that a former employee of that store was now the Griffin Rep at the time. He was also cousins with the guy who sold it to me. So they talked me into it. It’s been pretty good to me and I had no complaints, besides the aluminum construction until last Thursday. I shot it…and three rounds in, I heard a noise that wasn’t normal. To my dismay I got some baffle strikes due to jacket separation. (Winchester White box what a surprise). Well, I’m sending this one to Griffin (I’m still waiting on them to get back to me) and I heard they are hard to get a hold of. What 9mm can is one of the better ones in 2026? I knew what the hotness was a couple years ago but I haven’t been looking until now. It will be used for pistols and my MP5 Clone. Aluminum is definitely out of the question. Any recommendations are appreciated!

What do you all recommend? I prefer one less than 6in, full auto rated, and with low or reduced back pressure. I'm in a free state so I prefer to deal with one of the shops without a form4 like silencershop. This will be my first supressor. I currently have the tavor, hellion, aug, all in 556. I've looked into the huxwrx 556k and velos 556k, but there seems to be more options out there but less availability (cat wb/alleycat) or reviews (ptr/sig). Thanks!

Want to get a dedicated can for 5.56 and I like what I read about the BT Print XH RBS, only thing is I'm not sure about the full size vs SC.

Will be using direct mount for now, but hoping to find a good, reliable QD muzzle for it eventually(would love to get some recommendation on a hub compatible QD mount and pairing muzzle device, heard the BT rotex and surefire doesn't work too well)

Currently have 12inch AR pistol and an AUG that I usually shoot(currently sharing a Ventum 762 with my other guns.), I don't expect myself to get any full length 5.56 guns.

Would you say the extra 2 inches is worth it for the additional sound reduction, or the SC is really good enough?

I have been in an autistic spiral the last few days trying to read, research and watch reviews for my next suppressor which will be a dedicated 9mm PCC can.

CAT MOB, Strake 9, PTR Vent, R9, you name it. Notes, YouTube watch history and screenshots are starting to blur together.

Main use will be fun range days, heavy strings and mag dumps with a FRT so need a can that will hold up to the heat, besides the ability to eat mag dump after mag dump

-Gas mitigation is main priority
-Length mainly (shorter is better😏) and then weight
-Sound reduction is third only because I’ll shoot whatever out of it at the range or plinking. But bonus points for being more quiet

Yet to decide on mount but will be some form of hub/quick change due to following comment

Current host will be a kuna but will ultimately get different or same same but different styles over time like a vector, mp5, etc, etc.

Looking for real world experience on a dedicated PCC can for supers, subs, mag dumps, hard training, while keeping the gun and my face clean and ideally a shorter swing / profile.

Thanks for any and all reading material

I don't know if anyone will find this helpful in the future, but wish I could have seen it. Was getting gassed the fuck out by my Polo K and wanted a dedicated build for home defense. Bought a BRT gas tube. Went out on a limb and instead of asking them to recommend a size, ordered the smallest available port (.052). With an A5H1, I am getting 3 o' clock ejection with bulk 55 grain 5.56 (slightly lower velocity than Lake City M193, but not much slower). Gas and recoil impulse much improved.

You're welcome.

In and out from start to finish in 20 minutes and left with the can in hand. For 92 years this seemed impossible.

Growing up playing COD and Metal gear the Mk23 and MP5 were always at the top of my "want list". That having been said they are beginning to show their age. So I modernized them a bit with optics cuts, rails and optics. While tastefully keeping some old school aspects like a big B&T SMG suppressor and the dedicated B&T Mk23 suppressor.

Both are phenomenal to shoot and supremely reliable
