This has been my experience when using 5.7 rated rimfire suppressors so I’m just now switching to a 5.56 one to see how it sounds. If it ends up being not much difference I’m just giving up on suppressing this round. |

Yeah, I'm not expecting great performance, just enough to take the edge off, which is why I kind of want to focus more on size and possibly weight (the AM cans look a little heavier). Best aspect of the diminutive 5.7mm is the needed velocity which the longer 9+ inch barrels provide; no intent to really try a go subsonics. ROCK6 |

| I'm considering putting a Huxwrx Flow 9Ti on mine with the direct thread plan-b barrel adapter. Mostly because its so short and light and I just want to cut down on the blast without making it much longer or heavier. |

I have the right sized tapered hub, so it's another option. Originally Posted By TGH456E: I went with an Echo Machine Caracal can. Specifically designed for the 5.7 round. Like it alot. That's one of the few cans specifically for the 5.7. Hmmm... ROCK6 |

interesting, but that's a loooong bitch at almost 8 inches  I'm willing to sacrifice performance a more compact can for this use... ROCK6 |
