r/suppressors

I’m thinking about getting a 9mm can so I can shoot 9mm, 300 blackout and 7.62x39 through it. Is it better to just get a dedicated 30cal can for the 300blk and 7.62?

I understand that 9mm has a bigger bore than the 7.62 rounds but I’m not sure if there’s a noticeable difference in noice reduction with a slightly bigger bore size

I'm buying my first suppressor, an Echocore Sector Compact. I've read enough about how hot suppressors get so have been looking for a pouch that I can use to remove it from the rifle then drop it into my range bag without worrying about things melting or burning.

Wondering if there's a consensus on the best one or if there are several to choose from based on cost, size, melt resistance, molle attachments and whatever else is considered necessary.

The Echocore is 5 inches long and 1.75 inches in diameter. I've found a few on Amazon but wanted to check here first before pulling the trigger (little pun there). TIA.

The other day I shot an entire box of 500 in just the time it took to reload my magazines.

Should I be taking a break? What is your guys thoughts on this topic?

Okay so obviously there’s still a lot of confusion on concrete Do’s and Dont’s

If I am a Texas resident, stationed in North Carolina on active duty orders. And I purchase a suppressor in Texas with just a background check can i legally bring that to North Carolina? Suppressors are still legal in NC however I wouldn’t purchase it there. I’ve purchased multiples handguns and rifles in Texas and brought them up no problem. However obviously the suppressor situation is a tad different

Thank you for any inputs 🙏🙏

I’m struggling with a suppressor decision and could use some input.

Last week I ordered a Huxwrx FLOW Range 36 Ti for my AR-15 on my gun store’s recommendation. After looking into it more, since I’m not really planning on switching guns (although the multi-cal option is nice), it seems like the FLOW 556 Ti is the better choice for pure 5.56 use.

I went back and asked if I could switch and pay the difference. The dealer said that was fine, which is great. However, he also told me he’s shot both side-by-side and that the Range 36 actually sounded quieter to him on 5.56 than the 556 Ti. He described the Range 36 as more of a low boom versus the 556 Ti having more of a high crack.

Now I’m not sure what to do.

Does anyone have experience with both of these cans on 5.56, or any insights that could help? This will be my first suppressor and I want the most effective option for my rifle.

Does anyone know of stores in Alabama selling suppressors with 4473, I only know of two but want options. My main shops are too scared to go ahead with it.

Yeah, that's a long AF thread title but I couldn't think of a way to shorten it and have it still make sense.

I need to replace the A2 Birdcage on an 11.5" 5.56 SBR to set it up for a suppressor.

A friend-of-a-friend offered me a NIB uninstalled, unfired 1/2x28 LPM Eclipse for stoopid cheap.

Per LPM, even the 1/2x28 version has a .30 caliber bore.

Am I asking for trouble / baffle strike hell running something with that slightly oversized bore on a 5.56/.223 gun with a 5.56/.223 can?

If it matters, the can will either be a B&T Print XH RBS SC Ti or a Griffin Armament HUB HRT-5K AM on a Rearden Atlas Gen 2 or a Comstock Armory LPA adapter.

**PLEASE** do not turn this into a debate over the cans themselves, why one or the other sucks, what I "should" have bought instead, etc etc etc... I will not engage and will shut the thread down if it goes that way. And I fucking **HATE** that I even have to add this. 🙄

Looking at cans and need the hive to decide for me. I’m sure I can’t go wrong, but is there anything I’m missing? Thanks!
