After years of internal debate, I'm finally going to get a suppressor. Looking for some advice on which one to get and what I was looking at so far. I would like it to be:
-Multi caliber (namely 300 Blackout/.308, 5.56, and 9mm pistol)
-Light weight (around 15 oz, give or take 2 oz)
-Easy to maintain/clean
-Around $1000 or less

The primary gun it'll be for is my 300 blackout AR pistol, but would like the ability to put it on some of my other guns if I want. The top 3 I was looking at are SilencerCo's Hybrid, Griffin Armament's Paladin (Alpha), and Griffin Armament's Optimus. These three seemed to meet what I'm looking for, except I'm not sure if you can fully take apart the Hybrid like the other two for complete cleaning. I'm leaning towards Griffin Armament, but everywhere I look is backordered for who knows how long. Anybody have good/bad experiences with any of these three? What other choices are there? Thanks!
