Mod note: We all like to share when we buy a new can, or multiple cans...as sometimes our friends and family just aren't quite as excited as we are. So, post it up, tell us all...get it off your chest. What did you buy? Tell us where and how much if you want to. Heck, tell us why you chose it over something else if you want to. Tell us the host(s) you plan on using. It's your moment in the spotlight, so be proud...we may be the only ones who actually care and/or understand.
Ordered a Silencerco Octane 9 and an AAC SDN-6 from the new Silencer Shop website. I bought the stamps from them too. |

Already had the 9 & 45, plus the Octane 9 & 45. Found a deal I couldn't pass up on the 40 version without a piston (already have several 9/16-24 around here). The SiCo pistol collection is complete, unless I decide I want the K versions at some point. Also finally bought an Omega. Planning on selling the ASR mount and included muzzle device, as well as the muzzle device I get when I register. I'll keep the direct thread mount (and probably pick up a 1/2-28 as well). But, the reason I finally bought one is DM is going to make me a YHM adapter that screws into it...or at least we think it'll work.

Well I will join in here.
I just bought a couple from the silencer shop yesterday. I purchased the Revolution 9 for my HK MP5K three lug and the Griffin Hunter for a .308 bolt gun using the tapered mount. Since the bolt gun is not going to be used in competition and not rapid fired, it should work for my purposes. Now the long wait for the approval. |

I have been working a lot of overtime lately. I know is going to end soon so I have been trying to knock down my want list. I have averaged a new suppressor every two weeks for the last 4 pay days. So far I have a YHM M2 QD .556, a Spectre II, a Warlock II and a Octane 45 HD all pending. This upcoming payday I am going to have to break the trend and try to get a CZ Scorpion. I want to SBR it. When I bought my Octane, I chose the 18mm Scorpion mount in anticipation of this purchase. I am excited to see these start rolling in. Want to get an Omega after the Scorpion. All four of these suppressors were bought from Tarheel State Firearms. Scott makes the process too easy for me to not compulsively buy.

Currently waiting approval on my octane 45 HD in FDE that SS was offering. I bought on around the end of may from SS, hope they will still do the direct mail once it finally gets approved. This is my first suppressor purchase and second NFA item.
 Gonna use it with my FNP 45 Tac. Since it was my first I was undecided whether to get the octane or osprey...would have LOVED to get the osprey but the fact that the octane can be disassembled by the end user was a big plus. Had SiCO still offered the FDE osprey, I would have gotten that so it would match my pistol without a doubt in my mind.  Also thinking of getting into pistol carbines and thought the octane would look slicker since it's round.

I purchased a specwar k in May from a dealer in the Detroit area through silencerco's speq program. As far as I can tell, they are the only speq dealer in Michigan. They got the suppressor a week ago. Now I am just waiting to get the form 4 from them so I can sign it and send it off. This is my first center its rifle suppressor. I've had an element 2 since February and a tirant 9 since May.

Just picked up my Osprey 9mm to complete the family.
I just sent in my paper form4 for a Gemtech Mist. Don't have a host decided as of yet, but I have plenty of time to decide. Just sent in a paper form1 to SBR my LaRue stripped lower, and have a 12" piston LMT MRP CQB upper in my buddy's safe. Before it went into his safe, I installed a BE Meyers 249 Saker flash hider, and I don't even have a Saker yet. Waiting on my SOT to get one in so I can start the Form4. Plus I have coming a Sightron SII Big Sky 4-16x42 scope, a Boyd's Pro Varmint stock, and in hand a Specter II can, and a Kidd single stage trigger for a rifle that Bud's going to ship next week after my funds clear. Magnum Research MLR22ATUT with the factory threaded barrel. Brand new version with the threaded barrel. God, It's nice to be single again.....

Just trying to decide if I need the Octane & Osprey K cans. I remember you saying that you'd get an Osprey in 40 if you found a deal. I started with the 40 Osprey, as my first centerfire can from SS back when they were brand new to selling game, and put my name on a list for a 45 Osprey. This was before SiCo bought SWR. I did consider them but I liked the Osprey cans below sight line design. Since I never owned any 9mm guns, didn't see the need to purchase a 9mm Osprey. After several years of brow beating from my shooting buddy, I broke down an got a Sig P226 in that mouse caliber. So now I have a reason to buy another can. (AS if I really need a reason to but another suppressor) So I completed the Osprey family of full size cans. I don't have anything from the Octane family I buy suppressors for sound suppression, so the "K" stuff does nothing for me. For the record: My reference of the 9mm being a mouse caliber is mine and mine alone. So let's not get into a debate over this. Save that for another thread. |
