M&P Pro 9mm

AAC Ti-RANT

Storm Lake threaded barrel

Apex DCAEK

Streamlight TLR1

147gr Federal HST +p

 

I need to run these over a chronograph as Federal lists a muzzle velocity of 1050fps out of a 4" barrel. I'm praying they stay subsonic...

 

The front sight is at the same height as the top edge of the can so shooting through the can shouldn't be an issue. Can't wait to do some low/no light drills with this setup.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't the +P rounds be higher pressure and therefore higher FPS and more likely to be supersonic?

Does the can block the flashlight? Why do you want a faster bullet in a bedside gun? Won't that provide too much over-penetration?

I wanted the heaviest HST 9mm bullet moving at the bleeding edge of the transonic barrier. Smaller mass relative to a 10mm or .45 is somewhat compensated for by increased speed.

Nope, doesn't block it at all. Sights line up with the top edge of the can so shooting "through" the can isn't hard. In my opinion, over-penetration is a moot point considering any good defensive round will run the risk of over-penetration.

Man I wish I lived in a free state where I can have cool toys.... Someday hopefully soon. The only silencers NJ wants me to have is on my motorcycle.

Nice, um light!

I strongly dislike you right now....

Take it back!!

I strongly dislike him because I am absolutely JEALOUS AS F***!!!

I would prefer a smaller can if it was mine, but all in all, sweet setup!~

I thought about using a TiRANT-S due to the shorter length however the loss in sound suppression (32 vs 22 db) was too much. Plus, I don't think the shorter version is hearing safe.

Got this out to the range today. Had a couple malfunctions with 115gr BVAC. Put 100rds through it then wiped down the barrel. Put about 100rds of 115gr WWB through it without issue. 100rds of 147gr subs were awesome to shoot without hear protection. The 50rds of 147gr HST +p went supersonic but were easy to shoot without hearing protection.

 

I was consistently shooting low with the can on. Had a couple guys shoot it who had never even seen a suppressor and they had a good time.

Yeah I had a feeling that +P would go supersonic. Any other ammo you could try?

I'm going to try the standard 147gr loading next.

One of the videos from today. The first five rounds are 115gr WWB and the last five rounds are 147gr Federal AE subsonic.

 

I soooooo want one. =P it is a nice home defense setup... would be terrific to have a suppressed firearm especially since shooting indoors.

 

Mine would be an Hk P30L or Hk 45 with a can and a viridian strobe/laser.

No fair

That just oozes pure sex

oh yeah thats what im talkin about!!! awesome!!!

Wow there's a huge difference in the sound from the ammo - and that's just coming out of my laptop's speakers.

I am so jealous right now....

Ty, what's your "other" bedside companion? Not the female kind but the rifle/shotgun kind.

LOL

 

This is the primary:

 

Must be nice living in America where you can get suppressors and all those nice toys.

Wait, no SBR shotgun? Ty, come on bro your better than that!

 

Nice blaster though

Not a fan of scatterguns. I have one but I'd take my SBR over it in a heartbeat in just about any imaginable situation.

Can't disagree with you more on that! But hey, whatever works.
