What can for an AR 9mm?

General silencer discussion. If you want to talk about a specific silenced rifle or pistol, it is best to do that in the rifle or pistol section for that brand.

What are some good options for cans to go on the end of a SBR AR 9mm?

Swr octane, AAC Ti-rant, and Liberty mystic/infiniti are the ones I would be looking at. The ti-rant is out if you want 3-lug

Ti-Rant9 is quiet, user serviceable, light, FA rated, fits under a hand guard, and someone will make a 3 lug for it sooner or later if that's important to you.

Sounds great on a 22 rifle if you don't already have a 22 can, and since it's cleanable you don't have to worry about it.

Trident9 will be discontinued this year.

There are not many current 3-lug options. If you are willing to do thread on for the time being, the AAC Ti-RANT and SWR/SilencerCo Octane are the way to go.

The SWR Octane9 HD is the next can I'm purchasing. It will be specifically for my 9mm SBR using a 3-lug mount.

Have had a 3 lug mount on order for the Octane-9 for months. Not available yet. Have no idea when they will ship.

I am using a Gemtech Multimount on my AR pistol.

Since my 9mm barrel has an odd thread (1/2" x 36tpi) I bought a Gemtech mount in that thread and have it torqued on, semi-permanently. Then I just unscrew the can from the mount to take it off, and use other mounts for other guns.
Shoot softly, and carry a big clip.

I'm sure you know this, but that's not an odd thread, that's the standard thread for 9mm ARs. Done to prevent threading on a 5.56 hider/etc and trying to shoot 9mm through it.

Man I love the looks of the Mk9 has anyone ever tested the DB reduction on the Mk9? I have only heard it has a great low tone sound to it and being a older design I wonder how it compares to some of the newer 9mm models out there from ACC,Gemtech, and SWR. I read on a few forums where several guys are using Mk9's on 300 whisper/300blk rifles firing subsonics with good results.

MK9K is a great subgun can.

If you want to go with a really loooooooooooooow tone, go with an original Mk9 as on "Pornstar".
