Suggestions on best option?
I'm leaning towards the SilencerCo Omega 45K. It will be used for both pistol and rifle.
Pros:
Compact
Light
One of the quietest
FA Rated
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

No experience with the Omega 45K but I have the Octane 45k and not very happy with it. But after doing a bunch of research I think pistol suppressors are kind of novelty and unless you get a huge long one with lots of displacement they’re not really hearing safe.

I have the Omega 9K that I use on a few pistols and an SBR. Pretty quiet. The .45 application will just be a plinker. No specific reason to have other that I want one.

I've actually heard the Omega 9K is pretty dang good even on 300BLK supers. Maybe it's just the Octane 45K that sucks LOL.

I have a Rugged Obsidian 45. Really like it. You can change its length from full size to a compact in seconds. Very handy when length is an issue. I’m not the biggest fan of using cans on pistols. They are unwieldy and cumbersome. Main reason I got it was for all my threaded pistols and is safe to use on most of my center fire rifles. 350 Legend 45-70 etc.

I'm not an authority on suppressors, since this was my first one, but so far I'm enjoying it. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2024/11/full-48636-436592-449148395_2180487678987526_7153404590372119220_n.jpg)
