Any advice on components for this build would be greatly appreciated.

My biggest questions are around suppressor choice, reliability, and especially blowback/gas to the face. For those of you actually running suppressed Raider 365s, what combinations have proven reliable and comfortable to shoot?

I carry a P365 and normally run Federal Premium HST 147gr JHP, so that’s the defensive ammo I’ll be using in this build as well.

Already purchased

• Flux Raider 365 Aluminum – Black
• Flux Forward Optic Mount
• Flux Side Folding Arm – Long Arm w/ SBR Endplate

Still deciding

Threaded barrel:

• ShaloTek 3.7" threaded barrel
• True Precision 6.5" threaded barrel
• SIG OEM threaded barrel
• Other recommendations?

Slide:

• SIG OEM P365XL
• ShaloTek XL-length non-comp
• True Precision XL-length
• Norsso
• Other recommendations?

Suppressor:

• SAW Shiv 9
• HUXWRX Flow 9K Ti
• SilencerCo Spectre 9
• Other cans I should seriously consider?

Light:

• Streamlight TLR-7 Sub
• SureFire XR1 / XR2
• SureFire X300 Ultra/Turbo
• Streamlight TLR-1 HL
• Other recommendations?

What I'm really trying to figure out

If you were building this from scratch today, what slide + barrel + suppressor combination would you choose for the best balance of:

1. Reliability
2. Minimal blowback/gas to the face
3. Reasonable overall size/weight
4. Good suppression
5. Long-term durability

I'd especially appreciate feedback from people who have actually run these combinations on the Raider 365, rather than general pistol-suppressor recommendations.

Also interested in whether the 3.7" vs. 6.5" barrel makes a meaningful difference on the Raider when suppressed, and whether anyone has had reliable results with the longer barrel/slide setups.

Thanks!
