The seller mentioned that this barrel requires a lightweight suppressor, like titanium.
My question is will this barrel function with an octane 45 can?

Many thanks.

Probably not. I was not under the impression that any can would function well on a px4 since the barrel rotates. Other pistols with rotating barrels have required special, frame-mounted silencers.

Thanks Conqueror.
The seller contacted me and said it was a no go with his octane 9.

What titanium options exist?

Virtually no suppressor will work with a rotating barrel.  Even if the can does function (and the Octane may) it will loosen or tighten the can depending on if it's left or right-hand thread.  Further, it can and usually will throw the booster teeth out of whack.  All-around bad idea. It is a self-loosening design. Finding another host is the best way to go about it. But don't take my word for it.  Here's a word from the manufacturer:  http://youtu.be/eIMTVLUBo6s
