Other than YHM and Wilson Combat, who else makes a light weight Ti can (under 17 oz)?  

I'm looking to get one to run on all my AR's - (6.8, 300 BLKout, 5.56, 9mm)

ETA - also looking for something with a QD mount.

Gemtech Quicksand fits the bill. I have the thread version (sandstorm) and I like it a lot.

Gemtech Sandstorm (thread-on) and Quicksand (QD).

The Sandstorm I know is 13.3 ounces.

Also the SAS Arbiter and Reaper are even less. I just ordered an SAS Arbiter direct thread-on last week. I believe it comes in at 12.4 ounces. The QD is up to 14-something. The Reaper is shorter by 2" and comes in at 10-something ounces I think.

ETA: Also as already pointed out, you might not want to try shooting 9mm out of your 7.62 can.

Hooper Ordance femur and femur S look like they are going to be very nice.

Another vote for the Quicksand.  Great can.  Fast attach method is great.  Have the HVT, G5 and G5-t.  I love that they are all interchangeable with each other (HVT & Quicksand work in sub caliber roll on G5 mounts).  Makes shooting with friends and family enjoyable since suppressed shooting > unsuppressed shooting.

thanks for the replies!  

Also - I'll make sure the 9mm does not get shot through the can! lol  I got a little carried away...

Liberty Victory or TBAC 30P-1 should fit the bill
