I looking to start to dip my toes into suppressor land. I have a P10-F and I love. I looked online and see there are a couple vendors selling barrels, but they are not cheap, which if fine as long as it's a good host. Anyone running a suppressor on their handgun? |

No suppressor on mine, just a comp. The OEM barrel isn't terribly expensive. https://shop.cz-usa.com/cz-p-10-f-threaded-barrel-9mm-sr.html Griffin's is similarly priced https://griffinarmament.com/shop/cz-p-10f-threaded-1-2x28-with-micro-carry-comp/ It may be cheaper to sell your P-10F and buy a new one. I got my P-10F optics ready suppressor ready for $425 shipped. |

I suppress my P-10C, my P-07, and P-01, among a bunch of other handguns. The P-10 is just an OK host, but I greatly prefer suppressing hammer fired guns. I think the hammer slows down the slide a little because it has to cock it back every cycle. This seems to make the hammer guns a little quieter and spit less crap in your face. |

I’ve got a suppressed 10c and it sounds and runs fine. Does spit at you a bit though, however I’m not sure if it’s the action or the can that’s causing it. Most likely both. It’s a 15 year old AAC Ti-Rant. It’s not prohibitive to shoot or anything, and I really enjoy it with 147 gr. rounds. Attached File |

My P07 and P01 don't. I think it's because generally striker guns have faster slides. It's opening the action quicker, allowing more junk out of the ejection port rather than out the front through the suppressor. On a hammer fired gun, the hammer spring adds a little more resistance, slowing the slide just a bit and allowing more time for the gas pressure to escape out through the suppressor. That's my theory anyway. Experimenting with my guns and suppressors of various manufacturers it seems to mostly hold up. |
| I think your logic is sound. I just wonder if the carbon discharge is coming from the ejection port or the gap between the backplate and the frame. Not that it matters one way or the other. And you have impeccable taste in cans my friend! 👍 |

The hammer definitely helps delay the slide, and not having the recoil spring and striker spring working in opposition helps with reliability. I recently took a friend shooting and with my Octane 9 and no earpro he swore you could fire that just 20 feet away and he wouldn't be able to tell it was a gun. |
