Buying my first 2 suppressor's
I am currently in the market to purchase 2 suppressor's. I need some suggestions on what to look at. I want to get these submitted before the rule Change in July . The first one will be used on a CZ Scorpion SBR. This SBR has a 18x1mm threaded barrel not the standard threading.
The second one will be used on a 300Blk SBR with a 9" barrel. So any suggestions and or comments are welcome. Thanks |

Do you plan on shooting 300 blackout supersonic ammo or just subsonic ammo?

that would depend on what Ammo I can find at the time. So I would say both sub and super.

Plenty of cans out there that can do multiple calibers. If you were going subs only on the .300bo i would suggest the Octane 45. I have one and with the 9mm end cap its actually quieter than the Octane 9. Its rated for .45acp, 10mm, 40S&W, 9mm, and .300bo sub only.

I was looking at the following 4 cans.
For the CZ Scorpion I was looking at getting the GemTech GM-45. That way it would also be usable on my 1911 pistols. For the 300blk I was looking at the AAC 762-SDN-6, AAC Cyclone and the GemTech GMT-300blk. |

Ive got a few cans that you mention so heres my take
I Think the SWR Octane 45 is a better can for the pistol calibers. Just MORE mounting options. I LOVE mine I have both a SDN-6 and a GMT300blk. The SDN-6 is overkill on a blackout, but it is QUIET. You pay for that level of performance with a long HEAVY can. That forward weight is what drove me to get the GMT300blk can. I have not shot a lot thru the GMT can, maybe 100 rounds, it is louder with both subs and supers but i dont notice the weight up front. I was willing to make that trade-off So, if you want MAX reduction in sound... Go SDN-6 (also can use it on 223, 308) If weight forward is not ok with you... Go GMT and live with the reduced sound |

I just got my Silecerco Omega (7.62/ 30 cal) out of jail. It's extremely quiet on 5.56 and can't wait to test it out on 300 AAC. It is extremely lite in weight to, so you might want to maybe include that in your 7.62 options. I LOVE IT!!!!

I love my AAC SDN-6, but if I was buying a 30 cal can right now I'd probably go with the Omega. As for the 9mm can, you can't go wrong with the Octane. It's quiet, durable, and there are a ton of mounting options, including an 18x1 fixed mount for the Scorpion.
