 What happened to SMALL suppressors?

I few years ago Gemtech, AAC and others all made very compact wet 9mm cans that would cycle on anything. Now, they seem to be extinct. I would like one of the micro cans for my GLOCK 19 but I can't find anything similar. I have no interest in using a huge can with recoil booster on my compact, light weight pistol.

Take a look at Thompson Machine. They are making some really small 9mm cans that I hear good things about.

The Tirant S is compact. You will almost certainly need to shoot it wet though.

I was going to mention the Ti-RANT 9S & Tundra SV - but someone beat me to it.

I will say that most customers are specifically looking for the "quietest" can they can get for their money. Most people who want the compact versions already have at least one or two pistol suppressors and now want something a bit more compact. The same is true of the "mini" rifle suppressors.
