Quote History Quoted:
Sorry to take a tangent, but cruise why you consider shooting a suppressed AR to be more enjoyable than shooting a suppressed hand gun? I have a Glock 17 that I sometimes shoot with a Ti-Rant 9 and find it to be very enjoyable and surprisingly quiet with sub sonic ammo. I just got an Omega about a week ago and shot it on my AR-15 this weekend and it was fun, but I don't it was quite as much fun as shooting my suppressed hand gun. I'm wondering if I;m doing something wrong or if shooting my AR suppressed is going to be that much better after tuning the adjustable gas block for shooting suppressed.
I think shooting a suppressed handgun is a lot of fun and I'm impressed with how quiet a suppressed Glock is after reading online that they aren't the quietest host. I ended up Ti-Rant 9 because I picked it up when they were really cheap. If I was buying right now I'd probably go for the Griffin Rev-9. I think it would fit your situation well with being able to shoot it in the full size configuration for fun to be really quiet or in the K configuration to be more compact. It also seems to be priced pretty well for how good it is.

My advice would be to shoot a silenced G19 before you buy a silencer for it. For me, shooting a suppressed AR-15 is *much* more enjoyable than shooting a suppressed handgun.

Not too much of a tangent, the OP may find it helpful as well.
1. Handguns are fun because they're small, light, quick, pointable. With a suppressor that's longer than the host weapon hanging off the front, it goes from driving a sports car to driving a bus.
2. Suppressed Glocks spit a bunch of unburnt powder and crap back in my face to a degree that it was actually dangerous. Thankfully I only shoot with eye protection.
3. Handguns sacrifice some reliability with a suppressor attached.
4. Rifles are better for home defense anyway.
Basically, suppressors take everything that sucks about shooting a rifle and makes it better: Way less noise, recoil, and flash. Suppressors take everything that's fun about shooting a handun and makes it suck.
Just my experience. Some people here feel the same about suppressed handguns, some don't. That's why I recommend to anyone to shoot a suppressed handgun before they drop ~$800 on something they can't really sell, and won't find out until after the tax stamp clears.
