I own an extensive collection of 9mm suppressors but they all are pretty terrible on 'k' type guns with short barrels despite mitigation strategies. I want to try an RBS suppressor that is 3lug capable, made of Ti but ok maybe on steel, no al, is capable of disassembly to clean, hub mount.
Does this exist, and if you have one what is your opinion of it?

I’m looking at the DA Mojave 9 or CAT MOB, but they are both pretty expensive. They aren’t user serviceable, but that doesn’t bother me much since I have a Wolfman and a couple of Ospreys.

Once I said ti I was ready for price. DA has the issues of its not hub, its not serviceable and its DA who I detest after the Sierra issue. I have a number of DA cans so in reality the pseries mount is not a big issue as I own a bunch of the adapters. I don't fully trust CAT as their reputation seems really spotty.
But in any case I appreciate the suggestions. What I would really like is if DA added a little bit of diameter and got hub and did like Huxworx ventum and let you get to the core separately.
Still reviewing my options...

After discussion with my dealer about what we could actually get soon I grimaced, held my nose, and ordered a Mojave 9. I'll let you know how it works hopefully soon...

I've been using a Wolfman on my SP5K without any issues. Are you talking about overgassing? On what kind of shorter barreled models? Direct blowback?

did you change the locking block on your HK? Mine is still unpleasant with a couple of different cans.
In any case the one that is most interesting to me to improve dramatically is my B&T APC9K. Its really bad. Yes its direct blowback.

Yes. I swapped out the 100 degree factory piece with the 80 degree (#28) piece. This is only needed for shooting suppressed with 147gr ammo or heavier, which is just about all I shoot. It works great with this combo, but stovepipes if I switch back to shooting 115gr. That disappears when I put the 100 degree locking piece back in. I've never had any gassy issues either way. I also use Titegroup powder that is very fast burning, too.

A few months ago at a "suppressed 9mm PCC" themed shoot with some friends, I shot a Hux RAD 45 on a CMMG Banshee upper. It was very quiet, very smooth, even with standard 115gr range stuff. For me, it was one of the notable standout setups from the group, which included four or five suppressed B&T's, one of which was an integral SD model.

They make a RAD 9. I do see now that it's not one of the HUB compatible Hux models, so if that's a sticking point, that probably knocks that out of the running.

Earlier this year, I shot a PTR Vent 2 on one of their MP5 clones. It was silly quiet, and super light. Printed Ti, priced accordingly. It's not HUB, but Alpha pattern (1.125×28), so again... not 100% on the mark, but closer I think. Oh, you asked in my other thread for what I thought of the Kaw Valley tri lug stuff once I had some time to mess with it and so far, I'm a fan. It's a lighter grade of steel, whatever it is, but both muzzle devices and the mount have worked 100% and been trouble free. There's your Alpha pattern tri lug option off the top of my head.

The Hux was one of the possibilities but my dealer said unknown leadtime. I might still order one as an alternative, but the indoor match season is approaching and I want this fixed on the APC. The Vent's get great marks, but my experiences with PTR have not been very positive.

Gotcha.

The guns themselves? I've heard of their HK clones being hit and miss. I could be wrong, but I would think a printed Ti can would be harder to fuck up than a stamped kit gun, honestly: it either works or it doesn't and they should know on a test fire (assuming they do that).

Looks like I might be too late but I think B&T has some RBS 9mm cans.


—edited to add—-

Whoops, they are aluminum and pretty sure not HUB.

But there is the PTR Vent 2 which is Ti and RBS.

I love my Resilient RS9. Kind of weird looking, but it grows on you. It's absolutely insanely quiet with the direct thread it comes with. They say swapping that out with a 3 lug affects performance, but not to my ears. I don't get much gas back in my face either from the Scorpion or SP5 I run it on.

Is user serviceable and doesn't add significant weight to the muzzle. Really nice can.

I have several of the B&T cans and they perform fine. This inquiry is because I do not like the sealed al construction and the necessary cleaning protocol.

Let us know how it works out. I think my next purchase will be a very low backpressure pistol caliber can. Not sure if I want a 9mm can, or see what comes out for .45 cans.
