Currently, the blackside is supposed to be OK. AAC is reportedly coming out with a new 45 can that will actually quiet down the 45.

yea, I'd wait to see what AAC comes up with. Most people are surprised how loud .45 suppressors really are.

I wouldn't buy it again. Not that it's terribly bad, I was just spoiled on .22 quiet.

Thanks! it's a Colt Combat Elite I've been working on over the years.

My brother shoots a Kimber Stainless II with a Gemtech. It sounds like a paintball gun.
