With all these fast approvals I feel like I need to buy something but I sort of feel like I have all my bases covered.
Currently have: 22 can - DA Mask Dedicated heavy use 556 - RC2 556 for clone/precision - OCM5 300 blk/7.62 Nato - DA Nomad 30 Pistol/PCC - DA Wolfman The only thing I could think of would be a dedicated pistol can for up to 45 ACP but I barely shoot anything more than 9mm in handguns, only 45s are 1911s which I have no interest in suppressing. Anything I’m missing? |

I’m almost finished getting dedicated cans for every gun I have that’s shot suppressed 75%+ of the time. Maybe go that route?

I'm at the same place you are.
I have Rex Mod X 338 Rex Mod X 308 Surge X 308 Polonium 556 Obsidian 9 Oculus 22 I realize I don't have any lite weight cans. I'm at my dealer now picking up a few that just got approved and looking at lite weight cans. Maybe in the Ti flavor. ETA: Just bought a Scythe Ti black. |

The Wolfman is awesome (I have 2) but a bit thicc for a handgun. What about the new Spectre 9? Not a lot in the wild at the moment but it might be worth keeping an eye on. I have an Omega 9k but still might snag one.

I'm behind. I've only a few
45 Osprey AAC SDN-6 that I'm taking out of storage now that mounts and service is available SOCOM762 I'm waiting on my Obsidian 9 and MOD9 to get released. The Obsidian is going to live on my MPX with a tri-lug mostly I'm also waiting on the SOCOM556-RC2 to come back in stock, the price point for the RC3 doesn't do it for me |

I’d grab a pistol can, a 9mm one. Get a 45 can later if you ever change your mind and want to suppress 45s.

Truth… I was young and dumb when I started buying cans and I’m currently 0/3 on being happy with my suppressor purchases. Although ECCO Machine did an excellent job on making 2/3 at least somewhat useable. |

I was considering a .45 suppressor also but the same as you figured I’d never shoot .45 except out of 1911 pistols so I didn’t give it another thought.
Until, I decided I needed a .45 ACP PCC in my life and then jumped on a Rugged Obsidian 45. Just sent the ATF Form 4 yesterday, hopefully I win the fast approval lottery since hopefully I’ll have my CMMG Dissent .45 by the weekend. |

One rimfire can doesn't seem like enough.

With the quick F4 processing times I felt like I needed to get something before the wait times normalize back to 1 year waits.
I have all my calibers covered from .22 x3, 9mm (pistol and PCC cans), .45, 5.56 and .30 cal. But I shoot my .22s and PCCs more often and figured I’d get another .22 or 9mm can. Something unique like an integrated barrel and suppressor but all the ones I was interested in were OOS. On an impulse, I ended up buying a B&T RBS SQD Compact for no reason other than I’ve wanted to try out B&T suppressors. Did I need another 9mm suppressor? No, but I wanted one. My advice is suppress everything and if you don’t have a can to cover them. Then buy one if it’s in your means. |

Hmm, if it were me....
22 cal - Rugged Mustang. Light is right. 556 - Griffin Explorr. Light is right. Eco flow is a go. Do you need hard use? Seriously here, not "But but SHTF and aliens" 30 cal - Scythe Ti. Light is...See a pattern? Or a Explorr 30 because eco flow is...Well, you know. Pistol - Fly9 or Ecco TLX. Light...Oh fergetit! If you went Fly45 you also open up all the fun big bore shit too....44 mag, 45 cal, 45-70 etc. |

YHM R9 for .35 cal
Then you need to buy a .35 cal gun. Agree on more rimfire and a light 762 can. |

I think a better question is, “Who has the suppressor I want in stock?”

This It’s a brutal game, I’m now hanging out with systems that are 18-22oz looking at all these Scythe and Explorr and Lux guys with jealous eyes End state of the rifle is more important than pure weight, IMO. Neutral or stock heavy rifles get heavier cans to bring the weight where I like it, muzzle heavier rifles get light cans to keep from getting too muzzle heavy. It's good to have choices. |

Anything I’m missing? One is none and two is one, or something like that. You need to double up on what you have. I mean god forbid what happens if you get a baffle strike in one of your cans? Looking at your lineup, you weakest point is your .30 cal cans for 7.62 (wolfman does nice on .300 BLK) So I really think you need another one of them. |
