![]() ![]() Picking the Centurion apart more, we see it has stainless steel baffles instead of titanium. ![]() That’s a pretty good bargain on the surface until you realize it is only rated for 9mm. Some 9mm silencers, like the Liberty Suppressors Centurion are just under $650 before tax stamp and various transfer fees. In this case, we are after a feature-rich suppressor that offers a good combination of price point and user advantages. Certainly, price is an important factor, but a simple price comparison will give you the cheapest 9mm suppressor, and that’s not what we’re looking for here. Of course, if we are looking for the best 9mm suppressor for the money, we must look beyond just the best budget suppressor. However, the best budget 9mm suppressor can be identified mostly by price point. Therefore “cheap” in terms of quality is out of the equation here. Is there such a thing as a suppressor that’s simply “too cheap?” Probably, but fortunately, there aren’t any that we’re aware of that are so poorly made on the market as to justify rejecting them. Categoryīest 9mm Suppressor for the Money: BANISH 45 Suffice it to say, what may be the single most important factor other than price is the one that is hardest to pin down.Īs we mentioned, we’ve also got our top choices for suppressor hosts and ammo choices, so those are on the list below, too. Choosing a handgun suppressor based on how quiet it is, though, can be problematic, and that’s something we will touch on in a minute. We can categorically state the cost of a given suppressor or the overall dimensions of a 9mm suppressor. Of these three variables, two are pretty rigid. How much is it, how compact is it, and how quiet is it? There are three main criteria most people use when choosing the best 9mm suppressor. ![]() Use the links below to skip ahead: AN OVERVIEW OF THE BEST 9MM SUPPRESSORS, HOSTS, AND AMMO In other words, while we won’t tell you what the single best 9mm suppressor is, we will give you some objective data to help you decide what the best 9mm suppressor is FOR YOU – as well as our top three picks for the best 9mm suppressors on the market right now, as well as our best choice for a suppressor host and type of subsonic ammo. Some people value price point, others favor extremes in performance, while others still have a long laundry list of features they consider important. Not only because 9mm suppressors are in common use, but because there is no one objective criterion for what is the best 9mm suppressor. Thanks again for pitching in your two cents.The best 9mm suppressor is a topic that has led to a lot of heated debate. Once I sort out the reliable loads it's going to remain in the house near my bed most of the time. Does that mean I'm potentially damaging the slide by firing overpressure? This will end up being more of a novelty rather than shooting suppressed all the time. Imaoldfart's second picture carried Walther's recommendation that a separate RSA be used when firing suppressed. The heaviest defensive rounds I have are the 147 gr, so will make sure those cycle as well next time out. If the Hush doesn't cycle reliably I'll contact Walther or Springco about a new RSA. I will also try the threaded barrel out on two older pistols that are above that round count, a PPQ M1 and the 99c. I will work on breaking in the RSA in the new pistol and see what happens. We just got a little carried away was all, about five mags worth.Īnd thanks to all for the information and advice. Will be interesting to see how that performs.Ĭlick to expand.Thanks for the warning, had read that some time back but had forgotten. I kicked myself for not throwing in the P99c to see how that spring would react, though there will be plenty of time to experiment. I was duly impressed that it cycled without a hitch no matter which ammo!Īnyhow, should I expect that the cycling of the heavier 9mm will improve as the P99 breaks in, or do I need to get a lighter recoil spring? If the latter, what weight would it be? 22s to cycle without HV rounds, so doubted it would cycle the pistol unsuppressed let alone with the Osprey. Also threw in the one box of CCI ammo I had, only to realize that it was subsonic. The Federal Champion HV rounds cycled great, mag after mag. I also brought out my P22 to see how it would do, not having high expectations. On the whole, happy the 147 gr worked, though there was a noticeable difference with the 165 gr. It was only about every third shot or so, and seemed that if there was still smoke in the suppressor it would cycle better than if it was the first shot, but definitely not reliable. Shifted to Freedom's 165 gr Hush ammo and started getting FTEs. I have been using heaver grain bullets, so began with a mag of 147 gr reloads from Freedom Munitions cycled through without any problems. ![]()
