OCL
4.4
(33)
"The Polo IMHO is quieter than the Omega300 but is heavier. It is built like a tank."
"OCL is where it's at right now"
"OCL Polonium 30, affordable, built like a tank, HUB compatible, awesome warranty."
"OCL polonium K. Get a dedicated rimfire silencer for rimfire guns."
"OCL Polonium. You’re welcome."
"Polonium is a great choice. I’d say another one is the AB A-10 5.56."
"Cheapest good 556 suppressor is OCL Polonium or Polonium k."
"I’d get a polonium for the 556. Great can, durable."
"I have a Ti22 already and it’s phenomenal. So lite, and I don’t notice any FRP out of my MKIV 3” barrel."
"Cannot recommend it enough."

"I like my Omega45K"

"I use the rugged obsidian 45 suppressor for it and it works amazingly."
"Rugged Obsidian 45, works for 9 and 45."
"Rugged obsidian with a tri lug mount is a tank of a can."
"Rugged Obsidian 45"
"Look into the Rugged Obsidian 9 and Rugged Obsidian 45."
"I love it."
"It’s one of the most recommended 45 cans here for good reason."

#5
Diligent Defense
4.2
(16)
"Enticer s or L. $500-600. L is 🤌🏻🤌🏻 with subs and supers"

YHM
4.7
(12)
"One hard use 9mm can, will suppress everything you have listed."
"My go to can is the R9."
"Also the YHM R9 I see a lot of people suggest it and it seems like a very good bang for your buck can."
"YHM R9 (diverse & cost effective - something I recommend to people who aren’t really sure what they want)."

#7
AB
4.7
(7)
"Love my A10 7.62."
"-- 30 Cal (Full Size) - AB Raptor 10"
"Check out ABs Raptor and A-10s"
"AB A-10 (warthog) 5.56 is an amazing duty can for only about $450. Very quiet for its size, HUB compatible, and even includes a flash hider."
"I am waiting for the AB A-10 in 7.62 to come back in stock as I have the 556 version and love it on my 13.7. Gassy, but light and well built."
"AB warthog is going to be the cheapest option I'd go, but they are hard to find. Realistically, an OCL Polonium is going to give you the most for your money and are in stock."
"My AB 10 556 is as quiet as my buddies stribog 9mm can."

#12
Aero
4.0
(5)
"I bought a Lahar 30L for $527. I have absolutely loved it. It's a bit long for pistols, but completely usable. Very quiet and rugged."
"Aero LAHAR-30, incredibly robust and goes for $400 frequently."
"Would recommend it, the OCL polo 30 and aero lahar 30 would also be fine."
"Aero Lahar 30"
"In my opinion, the lahar isn't that great of a can."
#13
B&T
4.0
(5)

"B&T SRBS7.62"
"I'd recommend looking at: B&T SRBS 762."
"B&t actually has the government contract spec suppressors for sale"
#14
Trash Panda
3.8
(5)
"Trash Panda all the way IMO, if you do have other cans."
"I’ve got a trash panda and rugged 360. Both are great."
"Trash Panda is just fine lol, I have one I swap around multiple calibers."
"In my experience, the trash panda is the best across the board for a strictly purpose built 300blk can."
"I have a trash panda. Its a decent suppressor, but doesn't stand out amongst the numerous other 30cal cans."
#15
CAT
4.8
(4)
"CAT SP will be coming this year and it should change the game."

"I'd recommend looking at: Huxwrx Ventum 762."

"Lots of people like the surefire RC2 and OCL polonium"
#18
SICO

"I have the sico switchback and it's awesome."
"Osprey 45"
"I do not recommend osprey micro from SICO"
#19
GSL
5.0
(3)
"If you want quiet, the all-time best MP5 suppressor is the GSL Phoenix."
"The GSL Phoenix is the absolute quietest you can get."
"GSL Phoenix on full size, DA Wolfman on K guns."
#20
Spooky
4.7
(3)
"Spooky is even better due to LH threading but may be harder to find."
"Spooky is the move. Lightweight, short, solid taper, LH threads, made by multiple companies with a bunch of variants and availability."
"In theory the spooky QD system from CAT should be better since it’s left handed threads."
#21
Rearden
4.3
(3)
"Rearden is fantastic and very available."
"I personally like rearden, the tapered threaded QDs seem to have a nice balance of resistance to carbon lock and backing off unintentionally."

#22
Resilient
4.0
(3)
"Resilient Jolene L"
"Resilient Jolene (which my wife is looking at for a pin and weld for the exact same gun as you)"

Advantage Arms
3.0

"My recommendation, coming from trying to suppress the Advantage Arms kit, is if it's a gun where the barrel is not truly 100% fixed, you should get a lighter weight can like an aluminum one to prevent stoppages."
