Questions i had were tuning and wear.
Just curious what to watch out for when suppressing a PCC??
What are the wear parts? is it ejectors or the bolt itself?
Does it need to be tuned? i imagine no but i just want to be sure.

Don’t worry too much about wear. If it uses a 5.56 length buffer with no spacer, the bolt catch may eventually break, or beat up its spot in the lower. But a stack of quarters, a spacer, or a 9mm-specific or A5 buffer will solve that. You may end up with one for tuning with your silencer, anyway. The cheapest solution with tuning function would be a stainless steel spacer between the bolt and buffer, if it has a 5.56-length buffer.
The bolt itself is very difficult to wear out or break.
It may run reliably with the can without tuning. Adding reciprocating mass will reduce port pop to a degree, if needed. Straight blowback guns are sensitive to backpressure.
On the topic of tuning, stay away from internal trilug adapters, such as Silencerco’s.
