I had to ramp my bolt to get rid of trigger slap. Once I did that, it was a dream. Mine is an SWR QD3K 3-lug can inside a KAC rail and a RRA upper. I have a TROS 3-lug 5 inch barrel. Doing the entire package from AAC would be a good idea. I don't know what to suggest about the 16 inch thing. Mine is full auto. Welding a can on has issues as far as rust and stuff as water forms inside cans when you shoot them.
I have the 9mm upper allready on my RR M-16 right know. This is just another way to add another rifle to my collection with out my wife finding out. So my plains are to somehow attach the can and barrel togeather to be able to but it on both my semi and full auto lowers. This way I dont have to registor the semi Lower as a SBR.
Plans are to cut down the barrel to somewhere around 10 inch, slide a tube over the barrel. The tude will run from the receiver and past the end of the barrel to make up the 16 inchs. Inside the tube is where I will place the baffles. Also the tube will be left open from the end of the barrel back to the receiver, this I was going to use for a chamber for the gas. I also have a couple other ideas that goes along with the project.
I am a do it yourself kind of guy, I dont wont to buy one of the self.
Things I have found shooting other 9mms with a silencer
-Bolt noise is bad. Does anyone know how to cut down bolt noise on a 9mm AR?
-Lots of junk ends up in receiver, anyone know how to cut down on this?
-I need to know the ID of a set of YHM free floating handgaurds so I can try finging a tube that will slide in to them.
My 9mm set up
Old SP1 upper
ASA mag block
25 and 32 round uzi mags
ASA bolt
ASA barrel
ramped bolt
subgun buffer
Upper runs 100%
Looking for any help I can get, I own no silencers have only shot with them a couple times.

Re: Suppressed 9 mm AR15 upper need imput
I would suggest just SBR'ing your lower and doing a LRM M169 setup. For $1275 (I think) you get the upper, bolt, magazine block, charging handle, and AAC rater reducer buffer and spring. Not to mention a sweet shooting, quiet upper to boot. I actually have one sitting at my dealers right now waiting for my form 4 to clear.winston wrote:I am wonting to build my own suppressed 9mm upper for my AR.

By SBR'ing your lower, you will open up so many more possibilities with you AR. I have already started to lay out the plans for a 10.5 shorty for my newly SBR'd lower. I have a Noveske 10.5 CQB and Krinkov Brake on the way.
If you are dead set against the SBR idea, I believe Lee (the L in LRM) is working on a fixed 16inch version of the M169 so you could always just purchase that.
Good luck on what ever you choose, no matter what, you'll end up buying/building more. It's the BRD setting in
