***EDIT - 5 min after posting this question, I saw a thread on page 2 of this section where someone basically asked the same thing ... - Well, I guess I got one of the last ones.

LGS called and my Ti-rant 9 gets out of jail as soon as I get there... But, is it already obsolete and discontinued?

Just surfed the SS site and it no longer appears available in the list of pistol cans, product search turns up every AAC item except it; and now, checking AAC's site, there's the "M" and the "S", but the standard model is nowhere to be found!

So, did I miss a discontinuation announcement or is there another reason for the apparent unavailability?

The standard Ti-RANT 9 was discontinued about 2 years ago. It is a fantastic silencer and regarded as one of the best ever made for 9mm applications. That said the 9M is the replacement and is modular also tool less but sounds the same at the original. Both are very good silencers.
