    Shooting 9mm through .45 suppressor opinions

    Well I sent off two different suppressor types to Jeff at LivetoShoot to see what he could get me.

    I wanted the YHM Wraith XL QD but he says he cant get it. The other one I asked him about is the YHM .45 Cobra M2. I know you can shoot 9mm through a .45 can, and even .40 through it...but is it really worth to buy it if it won't suppress it that well?

    This is mainly for my 9mm DDLES SBR. I wanted a super quiet 9mm carbine and occasionally put it on my Glock 22 with G17 conversion kit.

    Should I try to get a different 9mm can or go ahead and have the versatility of a .45 can?

    I tried my hardest to get an AAC eco-9 or evo...but they are no longer being manufactured and I can't find any for a decent price.

    TIA

    I cant give any advice on shooting what through what as I haven't done it, but Silenced America always (atleast before Friday) has tons of everything in stock and at probably the best prices nation wide. They may be worth a look.

      It will be fine. Usually suppressing overbore only has a minimal disadvantage. But, if you really want a 9mm then get one. I however would get a .45 can so I can suppress everything I own with 1 can.

        Thanks CJ, I just didn't know if a lot of DB will be lost because it is overbored. I like the idea of shooting three calibers with one can.

        I am pretty sure that despite it being a .45 can, it cannot handle rifle calibers unless it's something low pressure like .300 BLK right?

          It's all about volume, but yes that's correct. A 9mm can will suppress .300blk subsonic as well, just like a sparrow will suppress a subsonic .223. You can youtube ".300blk Osprey" and hear a .45 silencerco osprey on a .300 blk subsonic if you want.

          .45 can on 9mm

            Looks like the next purchases are going to be a 22lr can, 45acp can and a 762 can

              That's the best array to get. It covers all your bases.

                you guys think cans will be banned? I was hoping to jump on the group buy bandwagon but it never happened.

                  They're already NFA. I doubt they get restricted further.

                    Probably not, they are NFA items and the last ban they were immune.

                      So you think they will continue to produce them and allow us to contiune, business as usual?

                          Reminds me, I need to get in touch with Jeff and get some money put down on my Arbiter and mounts.

                          I have shot .300blk through my Gemtech Tundra. No problems with the can. I do think that either my model 1 barrel or my thread adapter are not 100% concentric as I had very, very light bullet rubs at the suppressor's muzzle. Enough that it was throwing the round off too.

                            Just remember while they won't be banned, they'll be considered a evil feature and wont have many uses on what would be post ban guns.

                              There is already a huge misconseption about suppressors even in the pro-gun culture. Some ranges won't even let you shoot them. I guess they think that anyone who owns a suppressor thinks they are a hitman or something. I just like to shoot my .22lr in the house without disturbing the dogs or hurting my hearing.
