Quick F4 turn around times have me considering getting a pistol can, primarily for my Flux Raider (could also see time on other P320). I know nothing about pistol cans and am more interested in a good deal vs best performance.
Looking at SS, almost everything is OOS or backordered so I know I'll be waiting. What's the best bang for buck recommendation these days. ETA: only need to suppress 9mm. I don't own any 45 nor will I be purchasing one. |

Dedicated for a chassis system, I’d likely go as short as possible or as low back pressure as possible.
I use 9mm and 22lr in a Glock frame with a Recover 20/20 stock and a few other stocks. There’s far less trash blowing up in my face running a short suppressor or a modular suppressor in short configuration. Longer and quieter cans used on a chassis aren’t terrible, but it does seem to take everything dirty about shooting a suppressed pistol and put it right next to your face. |

What's the best bang for buck recommendation these days. ETA: only need to suppress 9mm. I don't own any 45 nor will I be purchasing one. Close to your face a .45 can on 9mm might be lower blowback and quieter (or no louder) to shooter. Pistol cans are over-valued for what they do. I didn’t say over-priced. The booster adds cost. So best deal might actually be a versatile can (getting value for dollar on features / function, not lowest price for minimal performance). In 9mm I’d be tempted to try Ecco’s very lightweight boosterless can. Don’t recall model. ETA: Ecco Machine Canine or TLX are the two models light enough they may run boosterless. |

I've looked at those but I'm trying to stick with SS for ease of process. |

I bought one and waiting for it to form 3 to my dealer. But from my research it is very highly recommended, rated. Warranty is great. Modular is a plus for me. Even comes with a booster. |

Meaning you can buy the suppressor from any dealer, have them ship it to your dealer, then buy a tax stamp from SS (Its 5 bucks extra...205) and use that to transfer the suppressor to you. You dont have to buy the suppressor from SS. |

You dont have to buy the suppressor from SS. I did that once when buying from hanshon and my FFL charged a "add to SS inventory" fee. Was $75 or some bs. Maybe I need to call around. |

The Flux Raider specifically, has issues with most cans. You'd want to get a very lightweight boosterless can for it. ECCO has one but don't remember the name, the F4 from AB Suppressor, there are a few others too.

It's doable but just might take some tinkering. |

The Obsidian 9 is a great can, I have 2. For your use I wouldn’t recommend it due to gas in the face mentioned above.
I have a Flux Defense braced Glock and I couldn’t even get through a mag without being gassed out using my Obsidian 9.  You probably want a can with low back pressure like the Mojave 9. |

The rev, res, and bushwhacker .36 are low backpressure. I don’t have experience with the flux. I believe I saw someone bring one in at work but I didn’t pay a lot of attention to it as I was busy with work.
