Do it.

It's awesome with a Griffin or Rugged 3-lug mount.

It's completely equal in sound to my Octane .45 at the shooter's ear. Bystanders say the Octane .45 is very slightly quieter to their ear.

Haven't really tried different ammo.

It's my favorite silencer, not to mention it's THE can to use on an MP5K-PDW.

Ugh, every time I see a picture of an omega 9K on a MP5K, I keep regretting that I ordered an Octane45 as my first centerfire pistol can. I told myself I wasn't going to add any more stamps to my queue until I got one back, but you guys make this hard.

Yeah...the only thing that gives me pause is that I already have a Griffin Revo9 that  I use in the K configuration.  Trying to justify it in my head that I can dedicate the 9k to the MKE and the use the Revo9 with my pistols.

Anyone have experience with both the 9k and the Revo9?  How do they compare?

I have a Revo9 that I have run in the K config on my MP5... I was underwhelmed by the performance and went back to the full size configuration. I understand the 9k to perform like a full size can, so I guess the numbers and tone would be much better than the Revo9.

My dealer had a 9k in stock that I passed on, would have been too easy but snooze and lose I guess

Posted over in the MK18 thread... some pretty sick shots of a 416 10 inch and 14.5 inch...

Sidenote, looks like the guy on the left is running a laurue LT101 riser for his XPS3 and magnifier... until now ive only seen the Wilcox riser set ups... both raise the optics 5/8 of an inch as I understand it... Maybe Augee can chime in with how he likes the Wilcox...

Also, Augee, if you read this, do you think running an EXPS3 on top of a 5/8 inch riser would be ridiculously high? I know the XPS height with a 5/8 inch riser is a sweet spot for most... Thanks!

Wilcox riser comes in both .410" and 5/8" heights, but the .410" is more common.  

EXPS on a 5/8" riser is pretty high on an HK, though during the brief time I used one like that, I liked it--but then again, I actually like red dots on carry handles, too, I like the tall sights, but a little lower will give you a little more contact while still keeping your head (and head-mounted kit) clear, letting you use NODs, and maintaining good situational awareness.  It's pretty perfect on a standard AR upper, though, the EXPS is about .26"-7mm taller than the XPS, HK receiver is between 1/4-3/8" taller than an AR upper.

I switched to the A2 stock, still need to test fire it but think I will like it.  Also plan on switching the RMR for a T1.

I remember that place...

I did not own any HK anything while I lived down there, though.  Nowadays when I tell people I used to live in Charleston, I have to specify--"The real one, in South Carolina,"

I handled some G36s on my first deployment that some Spanish soldiers were issued. Not wild about the ergos and am partial to ARs, but damn it if they aren't cooler than school... have loved them since I was a kid nerding out on Rainbow Six: Eagle Watch... well done, sir. Thanks for sharing!

No. The gun is an HK MR556 base. Barrel was cut down, reprofiled, rethreaded, de-tabbed, and nitrided. Aluminum parts were reanodized and receivers were remarked. Tanodized Wilcox kit, EOTech XPS3, and magnifier were all hard to get/acquired via private party sales/strikes of luck. It wasn't cheap, quick, or easy...but it was well worth it, IMO. It's a great piece.
