http://www.capitolarmory.com/silencerco-omega-9k-suppressor.html Anyone come across this yet? SilencerCo's latest offering, the Omega 9K will be available in early 2016. The Omega 9K is an ultra short 9mm and 300BLK suppressor and is the best performing 9mm suppressor under 5 inches. It is full-auto rated for both supersonic and subsonic ammunition. The Omega 9K comes with a piston and adapter for use on browning type actions (pistols). It is compatible with existing Omega / Harvester Big Bore direct thread mounts and a 3-lug mount will be available as well. FEATURES:

Damn it, just when I thought I was doing good. Another one to add to the wish list. Its about time they came out with a short 9mm can.

This has me interested, but what are the decibel readings on 9mm subsonic through the octane 45? That was my first choice until I saw this.

I hope "a 3 lug mount will be available as well" means it is compatible with the current octane 3lug

There were a couple of speculation threads earlier, but nice to see it being formally announced.
 Did I miss when SiCo announced their new stuff? SilencerCo Omega 9? The mount compatibility is a little WTF in my book. The Octane and Harvester mounts are compatible but not with the Omega / Harvester Big Bore. So I'm not sure if they're coming out with a whole new 3-lug mount and a new piston endcap or if the ad copy is wrong. |

At first they said that but then said it was harvester/octane mounts. |

Interesting. The 3-lug mount looks like it adds 1.5", so it's not really that short as a 3-lug can.

If the dB ratings on the website are with 147s then this is killer. Either way, it's still impressive. I'll be getting one. I see it listed in the distributor system. Of course 0 available. |

But if it accepts the current octane 3lug of which I have a spare on the shelf, it will be a strong contender for purchase. |

Whyyy is SilencerCo still sticking with a 3 lug that's 1/3rd the length of the can? Looks pretty cool otherwise, but I'm surprised it's not lighter.

There was some initial misinformation out there. It does use OCTANE thread mounts. (And technically is for sale now, it just comes with a Dakota Tactical reverse stretch)

glad to see companies finally offering more compact cans. only questions here is, will SiCo pleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee make it with a micro-uzi nut? 
(before someone points out that this won't be offered since there is no real market, i know. it's why my micro is still can-less.) |

So..this is a 6.2" (4.7" + ~1.5" 3-lug) long sealed 9mm/300blk 3-lug can...correct?
Or...a really nice and short 4.7"direct thread 9mm/300blk can....hmmm...... For comparison, the Tirant 9s with the AAC 3-lug mount is about 5.03125" OAL...but the 9s probably wont suppress as well as this Omega 9K. |

SO glad I held off and didn't buy the 9S earlier this year when I wanted a micro 9mm. Can't wait for this to be released... I'm in regardless of msrp.
My only question is why SiCo. chose the Omega 9K instead of an Octane 9K... guessing the specs/reduction were better and or cost? |

On the material. My understanding is titanium based on the weight, but don't quote me on that. There's still very limited information from SilencerCo even available to us. It's a bit tricky since it's a Summit launch as opposed to strictly the Omega 9 launch. |

On price, don't worry too much about that just yet. MSRP is $865.
The price hasn't been set yet, and of course we'll have it under MSRP when it actually goes up for sale. At this time, it's more a product description since it only comes with the Dakota Tactical package. If you really, really, REALLY want the Omega 9k and to start the paperwork today, they're $5,495.00. Just put in the order comments "I don't want the MP5 it comes with, just give that to Joshua." Seriously though, it won't be $865 when they actually go up for sale. |

Nearly 1.5" diameter. That might help to explain the claimed db rating given the short length.
On the other hand, how well it will work with suppressor sights on a pistol? |

Interesting. The 3-lug mount looks like it adds 1.5", so it's not really that short as a 3-lug can. If it adds 1.5, that would make it identical to the length of the 3 lug configured Optimus can which also metered ~125 with 147 subsonic on an MP5 and is user servicable and full 17-4 in that configuration. The SICO product would be lighter for about 10,000 rounds until it picked up enough lead to be identical in weight. |

There are no baffle welds for the first 1.25" or so of the can so the booster should slide right in. |

It would be extremely shady to word it that way if it was only rated for full-auto supersonic and subsonic in 9mm but not .300BLK. It seems to me that the second sentence applies to the first sentence, otherwise it would need to say that it's rated for "X" with 9mm and "Y" with .300BLK. |

I would really like to see a 9mm Suppressor with an ASR Mount and Flash Hider bored and threaded for 9mm barrels. Basically a 9mm Specwar, but user serviceable. It'd be too heavy for pistols, but would be perfect for a 9mm or 300Blackout AR.
