Looking for some first hand experiance with the CGS Mod 9 SK.
How does it sound compared to a typical full size can (specifically mounted on a sbr platform)
Ideally if you could compare and contrast it to a known quantity like a Octane 9 from silencerco, that would be ideal.
Seams like its a great deal but would like to know more as to what to expect in performance out of such a small and cheap 9mm can

Re: CGS Mod9 SK
It is rather loud. I will release the review and test data on pewscience.com.

Re: CGS Mod9 SK
Howdy!
I’ve shot both the Mod9 and Mod9SK as well as the Octane 9 2.0 side by side.
Mod9SK is definitely louder than the others, which is obvious, and just barely above hearing safe from a 5” barrel pistol with subsonic 147gr home loads. Outdoors (no overhead roof), the SK wasn’t painful to shoot but wasn’t comfortable like the full size cans. Didn’t use them on a fixed barrel blowback carbine that day, but it would likely give similar performance. I’d say it’s much more of a blast attenuation device with some sound suppression as opposed to a sound suppressor only.
Looks a little cooler than the others, for what that’s worth, but not gonna win any sound contests. The Mod9 full size is a fantastic can for the money tho; highly recommended.
