5.56 suppressor on a PS90 SBR???

What do I need to know? Should I not do it? Are 5.56 suppressors too heavy to allow the barrel to move correctly? Will I get lots of blown cases out the ejection port as a result? Am I better off using a 5.56 mini vs full size? Will my stock crack and break? If so, how long can I expect it to last?

Or should I ignore the internet rumors because they suppress fine with 5.56 suppressors?!?

I'm using an Omega on mine (.30 cal) with a 5.56 end cap.

Not that I've shot it a ton but so far so good. No malfunctions no excessive blow back. Can't speak for longevity but I don't think it will cause an issue.

It kinda sounds like an unsuppressed .22 rifle.

I ran a Nitro 30 on mine without issue.

I've been using a Griffin M4SDK on mine for a couple of years now. Works great, no issues so far with maybe 500-ish rounds through it.

My favorite, out of what I have, is my Octane 45 with Griffin 22 endcap. Still pretty light, very minimal blowback and good overall suppression.

The Saker 556K works great:

I've used all sorts but the mask is surprisingly quiet. Before that I was using a super heavy tac16 5.56 can and never had a problem with it.

I have an Eadrom on mine which is a 5.5" 5.56 can and it works flawlessly.

I use a gemtech quicksand with the ps90 quickmount flash hider. WOrks great, YUGe, but works great.

Gemtech P90 flash hider is the way to go. They don't make them anymore but you can find them. I put a WTB here a few months ago and got one within a week.

Waiting on the tax stamp for my Gemtech G5-Titanium.
