I have 2500.00 or so to spend on cans. Thinking of a .45 Osprey and an Omega at the moment, but I am open to suggestions.

I would like to get three. Any suggestions for 3 suppressors that would cover 9mm to .45 and 5.56 to .308 and still be in the 2500.00 range? Is it possible? This would include the 600.00 for the man. I would do 3 caliber specific cans if need be, 9mm, QD 5.56  and 7.62x51.

Looking for one pistol silencer and 2 rifle silencers.

What rifle hosts? What applications? Any full auto?

Sure you don't want to add a rimfire can to the mix?

Have you considered .45, .30, and .22?  In addition to covering all your bases ( plus .22, which you do want, even if you don't know it yet), its also probably the only way you are going to get 3 cans for 1900 bucks without going cheap on them.  I mean, 700 for an Osprey, 850 for an Omega, leaves 350 for either a good .22 or a crap 5.56.

Saker 762, Octane 45 or Griffin Revo 45 or Tirant 45, Spectre II.

You will want a rimfire, my Savage Mk FVSR, well, I think it has become my favorite.

I'd recommend adding a rimfire can as has already been mentioned.  I also think you should take a critical look at how much .308 and .45ACP you shoot, if you shoot a ton of .45 & .308 maybe the big cans make sense, but if you shoot mostly 9mm & 5.56 I'd go with dedicated 9mm & 5.56 cans.  Buying a .308 & .45 cans and shooting mostly 9mm & 5.56 is kinda silly, you end up with excessively large cans that are louder for no reason.

If you do dedicated, the, Specwar 556 or 556k and save money for a great can, Octane 9 or Revo 9, and Spectre II.

And my recommendations would be either a Surefire SOCOM RC (currently $799 at arms unlimited), Osprey 9 (shortest, quietist and lightest can needing minimal maintenance, allowing pistol sights to be more usable, also allowing you to see if you can is coming loose which is probably the main cause of baffle strikes on pistol cans) and either a Spectre ii, Dead Air Mask or Surefire Ryder 22s.

It might be worth giving look to the Surefire Ryder 9, Griffin Armament Revolution 9, Griffin Recce 5 (the mod 3 is stupid quiet, back pressure decreased and they added s low pro flash hider, looks like a winner) and the Saker 556/K.

I agree with the centerfire rifle cans but would disagree with the pistol caliber cans.




Take the Griffin Revo 9 vs 45

Both are 1.375" in diameter

the Revo 9 is 7.6" and 11.2 ounces

the Revo 45 is 8.2" and 12 ounces




that's only a little more than half an inch longer and less than an ounce heavier.




Take the Silencerco Octane 9 vs 45

Both are 1.375" in diameter

the Octane 9 is 7.5" and 10.8 ounces

the Octane 45 is 8.5" and 12.1 ounces




a little larger difference but just an inch and a little more than an ounce heavier.




about the same difference between an Osprey 9 and Osprey 45 as well







So for just an inch and an ounce, you gain the capability of shooting .45, .40 and 9 through one suppressor.

While I really do appreciate that missing inch for the 9 can over the 45, I will concede your point on size and weight that it is subtle.  What is significant however is the difference in sound reduction between shooting 9mm through a 9 can and 9 through a 45 can.

Yes 5.56 SBRs 10.5, 12.5 piston, and 14.5, as well as 16's. No full auto

Application would be range use and ISIS A-Holes or Chinese paratroops if the need arises.

Mount compatibility would be convenient.

ETA: I own 0 rim fires, my interest in them is kinda meh.

I just went thru this.

I almost went the one can fits all and decided against it.  I figure I am spending a lot of money for sound suppression...the way to really achieve that is thru dedicated cans.  I want to be able to shoot without ear protection and no one I talked to would guarantee that with 9mm thru a .45 can.

I went with the AAC Ti Rant 9 and 45 because everyone I talked to says the 45 is hearing safe.

As for my SBR BLKout I am definite leaning towards the TB Ultra 9cb for a dedicated .30 caliber.  I think you can still get the Ti Ran 9 for about 500 or less and the Ti Rant 45 is available a couple of places for a little over 600.  The TB Ultra 9 is running about 1K.

I just don't know of any do-it-all cans that really can do-it-all.

Omega, Specwar K 556 and an Octane 45 to keep it in the Silencerco family.




$875 for the Omega, $550 for the Specwar K and $665 for the Octane (using CA prices) puts you at ~$2K for the suppressors, maybe around $2750 with transfer fees and stamps...
