I'd snag it at that price. I love my M version. I just picked up a plan B to use on my 9mm rifle. Quiet and not as nose heavy as my Obsidian.

Quote HistoryQuoted: I'd snag it at that price. I snagged one last year for close to that price (non-M), and got all the pistons I'd ever need. It's a great can.   Attached FileThis is my Ti-Rant 9S with Triad (3-lug) adapter. |

They're a good performing, lightweight can. Just one caveat; make dang sure your alignment is good. The super thin aluminum K baffles don't tolerate even a slight baffle strike, and with AAC defunct, you have no warranty, so would be looking at an out-of-pocket recore if you didn't want an expensive, federally regulated paperweight.

I have a Tirant 9 and 45m. Both are deviated to PCCs. Really good sounding cans. Would be severely tempted at $299.

Yeah I'd get it at that price. It is a nice, quiet pistol suppressor. As long as you know the limitations on cleaning materials since it has some aluminum baffles it is worth that price.

Only caveat for me would be that if something goes wrong with the can you're SOL as AAC is long gone. So you'd be out the cost of the can + $200 for the stamp.

They wouldn't have a Tirant 45 for that price, would they??
PM me if they do, I'll buy it. |

They don’t have a 45. If they did, I would have already purchased it.
Hopefully the 9 is still there tomorrow. No customer support is my only hesitation |

Have a .45 that I bought for about that price several years back, along with pistons. It’s a phenomenal can and makes me sad that AAC is gone. Some of the older can (Octane, Osprey, TiRant and Gemtech Multimounts) hold up remarkably well in terms or suppressor.

I paid $449 for the can and a piston. The $200 credit covered a Triad 3-lug adapter. IIRC they were also available without a piston for around $400. Hard to believe that was almost seven years ago. OP: I'm tempted to ask where they are so I can buy a second one. |

Yeah, I got that same "pay the tax" rebate credit, which I used on a Gessle trigger for an AR and a nice t-shirt. Good times.
I own the 45, 9, and 9s, and have never had any issues with them. Great cans. I do say to take them apart and lube all the threads before you fire it. They're often bone dry from the factory - even worse now that they've been sitting around for years. Dry threads plus carbon and a heat / cool cycle is not a good combo for being able to take it apart later. |

I couldn’t break the end cap loose at gun store.
So I searched to see what others did about it. I saw some people claim they boiled the can in water then placed the end cap wrench/adapter in vise. Then held and twisted can to get caps off. Once I take possession I’ll be sure to fluff and buff. Any suggestions for grease or oil? |

Any suggestions for grease or oil? In general, oil and heat help with threads, so I'd try some combo of those. Use a penetrating lube on the threads, see if that works. Try lubing it from both ends - maybe the oil will get to where it needs to get to from the inside out as well as outside in. Also if you can heat the end of it, it'll make it easier to take out. A heat gun is what you need - hot air dryers I don't think would have enough heat to really work. Strap wrench to hold the can, maybe put the end cap tool in a set of vice grips for extra leverage. You can also fire some rounds out of it, which will really heat it up, at the risk of carbon working its way into the threads and negating the benefits of the heat. |

Hey KitBuilder,
How does the shorty Ti-Rant 9 sound on the MP5 with the Triad adapter? SilentMike |

Quote HistoryQuoted: How does the shorty Ti-Rant 9 sound on the MP5 with the Triad adapter? Better than I thought it would. It actually impressed me! I only have a full-size Ti-Rant 45 to compare it to (on the Triad/MP5), but it's probably 80ish % as good as the full-size 45 when both are fired dry, and around 95% as good when both are fired wet. (There's nothing scientific about these numbers; it's just the best way I can think to describe it.) Makes me want to try a full-size Ti-Rant 9 on there. Have you seen a published dB comparison anywhere? The shorty heats up faster (and therefore goes back to dry performance faster) than the full-size, but for the tradeoff in compactness, I think it's totally worth it for confined spaces. It doesn't bother me to run either one of them dry the whole time. It's a world of difference from the performance comparison between the M4-2000 and the Mini-4 on <14.5" 5.56mm barrels. (The Mini-4 not even coming close until one reaches or exceeds 14.5") |

Thanks for the insights on the Ti-Rant 9 S on the MP5!
The Mini-4 has been a head-shaker of a product for me for years. Way back, pre-H&K IAR, the Marine Corps wanted a small can they could use on their 20" M16 variants (Riflemen All!) to just take the edge off. Surefire had made a little can for them, so we took the M4-2000 variant of the day (with the vented stack from the 416-SD. The Bin-Laden can!), and deleted 3 baffles and two spacers and shortened the tube accordingly. Viola! The Mini-4 was born! On a 20" gun, it's surprisingly pleasant. On a 14.5" or 16" commercial gun, depending on how old you are and how jacked up your hearing is, it's not bad. On a 12.5" or (God forbid) a 10" or shorter gun. What? What did you say? What? Look at me when you talk to me! Yeah, like that. I think 99% of the Mini-4's sold wound up on super short guns. "It's a small gun! I need a small suppressor!" This hypothesis has been born out by looking at the hosts the Dead Air Sandman K winds up on. Thanks for the inspiration to trot down memory lane! SilentMike |

1 of my Mini 4's sits on my ARX100 SBR, in an emergency it's quiet enough to take the edge off and at the range generic soft foam or Surefire plugs are plenty to make shooting comfortable. I wish you guys had made a Mini 7...
