Recommend a 9mm pistol can

[RWT]

Please recommend a 9mm pistol can. I have reviewed the thread on the 9mm carbines, however they are different operating systems. Considering this as I may practice more if I can reduce the report. Even with double ear pro my tinnitus is terrible after shooting my pistols.

Requirements.
Don’t want to add a RMR yet
Don’t want to change sights yet
Want to cycle with 147’s
Functional suppression is the goal

IF I need to update sights and RMR to obtain max suppression I am willing to do so.

Pistol suppressors do not work like suppressors on rifles. You aren’t going to be practicing anything with a pistol can. Not only that, but your list of wants is functionally not going to happen.

So, you don’t recommend them at all?

For killing sleeping opossums- sure. For anything else, they aren’t functional. They make the pistol the size of an MP5k, they make recoil/sight tracking awful, you can’t use regular sights, etc, etc.

Thank you. Seriously. This helps considerably. I would have spent a silly amount of time and $ chasing my tail.

I very much appreciate your help. As much $ as I have spent following your recommendations I’ve become a better shooter because of it. I learned considerably more than reading random “expert opinions” on the internet. If you ever publish a book it will be on my shelf.
Now I have to figure out my grip on the 1911’s. Have to feed hay tomorrow so I should have a little time to verify the adjustment.

No problem.




The best you can do now, is a “suppressor” that takes out the muzzle blast and massive concussion, and yet is small and light enough to use like a regular pistol. But it isn’t hearing safe by itself.

Not the same as a 9mm but running a rugged mustang on my 22/45 (22lr) and very happy with it. Sights are fine and functions perfect.

Is there a model you would consider? Even lowering the concussion is fine. I don’t expect hearing safe, just enough suppression to lessen the bang.

The only suppressed pistol I’ve shot are 22lr’s. They are great for running hogs off a feeder when you are bow hunting. Much cheaper as I don’t have to watch $40 worth of arrow and broad-head run away and get trashed.

Also following! I have a springfield hellcat pro, love the pistol but it would be so fun for home defense to throw a can on it!
