Got the stamp for my 5.56 can and now I would like to get one for my 9mm Glock. Is there any one can that is real popular? I am looking in the $600 range. I did like the units that have the dual configuration. |

Ghost M or Obsidian or 1) Obsidian 45 2) Griffin Revolution (gen 3) 45 3) Ghost M I'm leaving the TiRant off specifically because the parent company is bankrupt after nearly a decade of defecating on every manufacturer they acquired. I also left SilencerCo off the list even though I own the Octane 45 and like it (after a few modifications). Why buy a .45 suppressor? Because less back pressure and greater expansion area. Also, if you ever decide to shoot 300 Blackout, 45 ACP, 10mm, 44 Magnum, etc., you are set. The actual diameter of the hole is not as important as you might think. |

What would you recommend Silencerco do to make the Octane 45 better? A modular design is the most obvious aspect their competitors have going for them, as well as self aligning baffles. And I agree the large bore works well on sub-calibers and affords a degree of safety against baffle strikes on crappy threaded hosts, or with new shooters who don't always check for the can backing off.

I tend to go the other way and prefer a dedicated solution in regards to caliber. That and the modular 9mm silencers offer a near "micro" [4.8-6"] configuration in addition to their full length. The .45 cans simply don't offer that. My top 3 list if I had nothing and were buying today for a 9mm handgun as my only concern? Obsidian 9 Tirant 9M Griffin Rev 9 |

I went with the revo 9 after looking at the options, still waiting on the ATF so I can’t say if it’s good yet.
Currently own a octane 45 for pistol, and wanted a modular can to try. |

I personally don't want to punish the child because of the parent's actions, but am curious: What modifications did you do to the Octane 45? As for the Octane 45, I cut a notch for an AR-15 spanner wrench so that I can cinch the can down a bit and remove it easier. Also allows me to remove the piston housing during cleaning and drop it in the tumbler with the baffles, piston, and spring. Also have 3D printed end cap tool and baffle alignment rod and homemade fixed barrel spacer. So, technically only one mod: the notch. |

Well, yes, but that's not the only reason to buy a SERVICEABLE suppressor from a company that is not dying. Consider the weight penalty between the Omega 9K and, for instance, the Obsidian or Revolution in their K configuration. Don't go by quoted weights, either, because SiCo publishes their weight without the mounting system. It doesn't work that way. Lead and carbon layers deposited by low-pressure loads do not get 'blown out' by high pressure loads. The reason rifle cans don't get filled is that you are exclusively shooting high-pressure loads. Once it's there, it's there. I'm not saying that it's not a good can, just sealed. It has its niche, but the OP also was asking about 9mm cans for a Glock, not .300 BLK cans that can double as 9mm cans. Omega 9k: 9.01 oz Obsidian 45 short: 11.19 oz TiRant 9s: 6.2 oz @OP I really like the TiRant 9s...not a Glock...but hoping you get the idea regarding the size:

Thanks for all the helpful info. I ordered a Rugged Obsidian 9. The size and price, modular design and your inputs and some youtube reviews made the selection easy. The nice thing is that I can always buy another one for the collection.
Does anyone have a preferred place to buy some Glock threaded barrels. |

My Ti-Rant 9M works well on both my Glock and Scorpion pistols.
It’s light weight and has very good sound suppression in both the short and long configuration.
