My Obsidian has the same numbers are yours and doesn't have the arrow head on the module as well and mine was purchased from the silencer shop on January 6.
I would love to see the pictures comparing the two as I'm going to be using it onmy scorpion with a three lug adapter when my form 1 gets approved anytime now.

Really liking the versatility of the Obsidian with the Silencerco mounts and pistons.  Here are some pics with the Scorpion with an HKParts 3-Lug Adapter and direct thread using an Octane Direct Thread Adapter:

Took some pics comparing how the Rugged 3-Lug Mount sits in the Omega 9k.  It seems that the Rugged 3-Lug Mount will sit farther away from the Omega 9k's first baffle compared with the Obsidian.  I have not yet put rounds through the Rugged 3-Lug Adapter/Omega 9K...but fit is really nice and it works on ALL my 3-Lug adapters unlike the GA 3-Lug mount(I think I'm gonna sell the GA-Lug..still new in package).  I'm going to put a few round through the combo and see if there are any issues....if no issues..I'll purchase another Rugged 3-Lug Mount for the Omega 9k.

Pics don't come through at all using an iPad.  UPDATE: whatever you did, pics are now visible in your post on my iPad.

When I saw mine at the SOT I was pissed and called Rugged, they said I could send it in once my stamp clears to have it fully cerakoted. My take, they rammed them out the door because of the approaching 41P and decided that was the step they could eliminate and then deal with complaints after the fact. They should've never sent the fully cerakoted ones out for the reviewers.

I'll have to send them an email.

It's funny seeing one that was ordered immediately after they went up for sale not looking like the review models sent out to the YouTubers. I'm looking forward to using the can, but getting one that wasn't cerakoted was a bummer. I'm glad to see they're making it right.

Yeah, not the end of the world. I have no doubt they'll take care of it and it is a kick ass can. it will be a long time for my stamp so I'll know for sure what they're doing to correct the issue.

They only have their own 3 lug mount.  Have to either buy a barrel with the 3 lug adapter machined on or buy the adapter in the correct thread pitch for your barrel.

Have you "run" the gun yet?
I had my optic pretty far forward initially and ended up moving it back because it was in the way of doing the "HK Slap" to charge the gun. Wondering if your optic is in a good spot?

Gel rest looking gun by the way, the Obsidian is making me jealous
Link Posted: 10/5/2016 7:29:17 PM EDT
[#18]
yes I have shot the gun and use the bolt release instead of the "HK slap".  If you are into the slap then it may have to move it back like you state.
I could do without the lock back function because the bolt release will not work with the release all the way back and locked.

Obsidian short config fits nicely on the TROS 3-Lug barrel..kinda looks like a TiRant:

Link Posted: 10/8/2016 6:26:23 PM EDT
[#20]
Finally got to shoot the Obsidian yesterday with the MPX.  Long config is just a tad quieter than a TiRant 45.  The short config has a deeper tone(no slap sound) and a tad quieter compared with the Omega 9K.  The short config with the Rugged 3-Lug Mount is about 0.50" longer than the Omega 9K with the Silencerco 3-Lug mount...but a tad quieter and a deeper tone.  Gas blowback on the MPX is non-existent in the long config and much lower than the Omega 9K in the short config.  I'm really...really liking the Obsidian on the MPX.

Below are some pics of the Obsidian with other 3-Lug short cans.  Hoping that my pics show up....hosting pics on google photos since google discontinued picasa and I'm still getting used to getting the appropriate photo links.

Your pics are showing up for me now, they haven't been the last few days. Obsidian looks awesome, but the Omega 9K with the Rugged/Griffin 3-lug would be shorter than the Tirant 9S with 3-lug.

I hear ya.  I have the GA 3-Lug mount but I prefer the Rugged 3-Lug Mount in the Omega 9K.  I have not yet shot that combo...maybe the next range session.  Below is a check fit of the Omega 9K with the Rugged 3-Lug mount..and yeah...it is VERY short:

Aside from the cost..why not used a fixed mount...it will also be a little shorter.

I would probably buy that,  if it were in stock

Help me understand ( this is my first pistol can ).  I can simply swap that (above)  out with the piston Housing,  and not need a spacer ? - correct?

Rugged fixed mounts are out of stock everywhere I've looked. Osprey spacers are plentiful.

That opens up the question of the Osprey/Octane fixed mounts being compatible but those are in short supply as well.

Although I'd generally prefer the direct response from Rugged, NFAReview said the opposite. I have a SiCo Osprey/Octane spacer coming and will test it.


OK I just personally checked and verified a few things for you guys.

1. The SiCo fixed spacer does work. I mounted it on a gun and pulled on it, there is no rattle or movement. It fit like a glove, and was the same size as the spring it replaced.
2. The SiCo fixed adaptor (replaces the piston & spring) fits like a glove too.
3. The SiCo Harvester 5/8x24 flush fixed mount fits perfectly. This also drops the OAL by a solid 1/4" over option 1 & 2.
3. Griffin Armament 3-lug adaptor does fit. You compress the spring down and push while threading it into the can body. Fit perfect. It did have some rotational movement once on the 3-lug barrel but no up or down wobble. It should be good to go. It felt fine.

All that being said, I don't like hodge podge parts on my guns and cans but it should hold you over till Rugged can catch up on production and you can support them by buying theirs as well. Also I would check with them about warranty issues but Rugged is a pretty kickass company so I don't see them screwing you over because you had a brain fart.

Hope that helps!

Both of these points are in direct contrast to information that I got from Rugged about 10 weeks ago.  However, that would make it even more important to get confirmation directly from them about both Octane spacers and eventual (or not) Rugged spacers.

I do not have or used Hkparts adaptor but can honestly attest that lock up between my GA and the Obsidian mount are beyond tight. That spring that comes with Rugged is so stiff and when compared to my Tirant mount on same GA adaptor is like it is a fixed or welded suppressor on barrel....very impressed.

I have an HK parts 3 lug adapter on my Scorpion and it does fit snuggle.  As everyone stated the spring is very stiff in the Rugged 3 lug mount.  It takes effort to pull it down to rotate.  My as a hair (read very tiny) of rotational play but nothing I would consider obsessive or will cause a buffle strike.  I have close to 700 rounds with it on my scorpion using wolf 115, blazer 124, lawman 147gr, gold dot 147gr, federal hst 147 gr.
