Handgun Gear: Best 9mm Suppressor Choices (2022)

Updated 10/18/2022 Even if you aren’t familiar with the caliber, chances are you already have one. It is not difficult to see why it is so prominent. It is easy to shoot, can be used for self-defense, and may only be eclipsed by the.22LR in terms of ammunition economy. It can also be suppressed. The right can and your pistol, or pistol caliber carbine for the matter, is as stealthy in the centerfire world as it gets. The question is, however, how do you choose the right 9mm suppressor for you? When shopping for accessories that are potentially as expensive as your pistol, there are a few things you should consider. These are: Size: What size accessory do you need? Will you need something small and portable for your shooting needs? We’ll show you some of the most popular suppressors on the market today. These 12 9mm suppressor options are more than capable of handling your nine. The ModX-9 was introduced at the 2019 SHOT Show to great fanfare and excitement from shooters about the company’s new suppressor strategy. The ModX-9 finally made its debut at the 2019 SHOT Show to great fanfare. Sig is known for producing the most compact, lightweight, and efficient modular cans on market. The ModX-9’s features are thanks to advanced manufacturing. The 3D-printed titanium device boasts a perfect fit and function. The 9mm suppressor measures 7.75 inches in total and weighs in at 8 ounces. It can be reduced to 3.25 inches by using the blast baffle and end caps, making it a compact 5-ounce package. Shooters can adjust it to their needs with eight total baffles. It can be adjusted to any size bullet, regardless of its size. This makes the suppressor compatible for carbines and sub-guns, which don’t require the reciprocation of the whole booster assembly. The ModX-9’s last point is that it can be used with carbines and sub guns, where the reciprocation of the entire booster assembly is not required. dB full configurationMSRP $925YHM 9mm Sidewinder The majority of suppressors retail for just shy of $1,000, which is often more expensive than the guns they are destined to silence. This is what makes the Sidewinder so unique. The 9mm suppress is priced at less than $600 at most outlets and delivers a refreshing shooter’s experience. It does suffer from first-round pop, as is the case with many monos. This is due to the larger chamber volume. Once settled in, shooters can expect a generous noise reduction of around 36 dB –more when it is wet. There is a tradeoff between price and performance. The Sidewinder weighs in at just over 10 ounces. This is a lot for a pistol-specific product. Many people think the Sidewinder is a better PPC option. However, those who believe the suppressor is perfect to use with a carbine will find that it is purely a direct attachment affair. It’s not a major drawback, but it does make it slower to switch over to quick-attach systems. There are three thread options for the YHM 9mm sidewinder: 1/2’’-28, 1/2’’-36, and metric13.5x1LH.YHM 9mm sidewinder specifications:Caliber 9mm/.300 BlackoutWeight 10.2 ouncesLength 7.8 inchesDiameter 1.375 inchesMaterials : Aluminum/Stainless steelFinish : Hardcoat AnoizedAttachment : 1/2’’-28, 1/2’’-36, metric 13.5×13.5×13.5×13.5×13.5x1LHAverage decibels13.5×13.5x1LH. dB full configurationMSRP $745Gemtech Lunar9Modularity is becoming the norm in suppressors. Why not? You can drop the coin and jump the hoops. It’s a good idea to have versatility baked into the can. Gemtech’s latest offering is configurable, which is why it is so surprising to no one. The Lunar 9 can be run in two lengths, 4.7 inches or 7.7 inches, and both are extremely lightweight with a 10 ounce top end. This makes it a great tool for tactical and pleasure shooting. This is just the beginning. Gemtech’s Multi-Mount system makes it even easier to use the 9mm suppressor with a variety of mounting systems, including three-lug, direct thread, and others. The Lunar 9 is able to reduce noise, regardless of the size of the gun. It can reduce a pistol’s noise level to 120 dB in its full configuration. The mid-130s will be reduced. It’s not quite powerful enough to be used without plugs but it is still comfortable. Compatible with GM-9 mountsAverage decibels: 129 (approx. dB full configurationMSRP $654CGS MOD-9It doesn’t matter if we’re talking handguns and precision optics, finding the right balance is always a challenge. Suppressors can be just as difficult, but CGS has done a great job in finding a middle ground with its MOD 9. The 9mm suppressor is lightweight, durable, and noise-reduction friendly. CGS has a great option with its MOD 9. This should be a manageable size, even if you don’t kick in doors for a living. CGS has cooked up a quiet suppressor–mouse-sneeze quiet. This will vary depending on barrel length and ammo, but most 9mms with a 4-inch fire tube should generate between 113 to 120 dB with a MOD-9 attached. The main component of the build is aluminum, which includes the suppressor’s 6 baffle stacks and tube. It weighs in at a lightweight 10 ounces. The piston assembly is also impressive with a 12-point rotational adjustment for impact shift. The Rugged Suppressors Obsidian 45 is rated for.45 ACP and can handle heavyweights such as.450 Bushmaster or.45-70 Government, or.458 SOCOM, provided the barrel length is appropriate. The Obsidian is a versatile weapon that can be used with a variety of calibers. Modular: The Obsidian can be tailored to your firearm and application by being available in an 8.7-inch full configuration or a 6.7-inch K configuration. This allows you to choose the lengths that are best suited for your gun or rifle. The suppressor is fully-auto rated for all pistol calibers as well as.300 blackout and can do a lot to your gun’s report. It can reduce a 9mm pistol’s report to 123.7dB dry at full length. It features a non-slotted design piston, which reduces gas blowback from handguns. It is made of durable aircraft-grade aluminum tubes and stainless steel baffles. This is a true jack-of-all-trades.Rugged Suppressors Obsidian 45 Specs:Caliber: 9mm/.45 ACPWeight: 10.7-12.8 ouncesLength: 6.7-8.6 inchesDiameter: 1.37 inchesMaterials: Aluminum tube, stainless steel bafflesFinish: Hard Coat Anodized and CerokoteAttachment: .578×28 PistonAverage Decibels: 123.7dB full configurationMSRP: $875Dead Air Odessa-9Sound suppression, for obvious reasons, is what headlines suppressor innovation. What about the little things that make cans more useful and practical for a wider range of shooters? These are the features that Dead Air focused on and it was a great success with the Odessa-9. Although the design may not seem like much, it is compatible with almost all pistol stock sights. The modular design of the 9mm suppressor means that it can adapt to any application. If noise suppression is important, you can use all 11 baffles to run the Odessa or just one to reduce the gun’s report. It will still do its job even if you run out of ammunition. Four baffles keep subsonic ammunition at or close to safe hearing levels. The 10-ounce suppressor reduces subsonic 9mm ammunition to 122dB at full length. The Odessa-9 suppressor reduces subsonic 9mm ammo to around 122dB. Sig Sauer is the best when it comes to firearms, accessories, and firearms. The SRD9 is a great example of this. The 9mm suppressor can be used as a serviceable tool. The device is made with Grade 9 titanium tubes and high-nickel alloy stainless steel baffles. It weighs in at just 9 ounces. The SRD9 reduces the 9mm’s report to approximately 128dB when dry. The suppressor is fully-autorated and compatible with all popular pistol calibers, including 9mm,.40 S&W, and.45 ACP. It comes with both an m13.5x1LH and a 1/2×28 pistons, allowing it to mount on any gun regardless of its origin. The SRD9 is a great option for anyone looking to save money and still get professional performance. The 9mm suppressor is still very effective in its job. It is a great tool for reducing noise and providing the best shooting experience. It has more internal volume, which allows gases to expand and thus provides better noise reduction. A 9mm report has a 127dB reduction, which is dynamite. Its off-center design allows it to stay out of your sight image, which in turn allows you to keep your stock sights. The device is extremely lightweight and made of aluminum tube, baffles, a blast baffle, and stainless steel blast. The device is extremely lightweight, has excellent noise reduction capabilities, and is easy to use. Not every suppressor for 9mm can be used with handguns. AR specialists CMMG know this well. Jumping into the noise reduction game this past year, the company tailored the pistol-caliber members of its DefCan line for sub-guns and AR pistols, rifles and carbines.Unmistakably, the DefCan 9 looks the part. Although it is extremely slim (1.38 inches), the DefCan 9 is quite long – as long as they are on this list. Even if it could fit in your pistol, it would be too small at 10.25 inches. It’s a different story with an AR-pistol, SBR, or long-gun. The extra length to dissipate gasses does a number for a gun’s reports, cutting it down 32dB on average. The suppressor weighs only 10 ounces, which is similar to adding lighting options to the front of a rail. The aluminum construction makes the unit light and gives it some desirable thermal properties. Each of the seven M-style baffles has a squared port at the aperture. This design point improves noise reduction by directing gas particles laterally within the tube. The suppressor is sealed and therefore not accessible to the user. It is not possible to clean the suppressor without it being sealed. The 9mm is also a popular choice. The Omega 9K, which is at the cheaper end of the market for suppressors, is not a waste of money. The Omega 9K is light and compact, and does what it was intended to do: keep your noisy guns under control. The suppressor will still be visible, but it won’t hinder your ability to compete in agility-related shooting activities. The Omega K is lightweight at 7.2 ounces. The extremely hard and abrasion-resistant alloy is well-known for its wear resistance. It can withstand long shooting sessions as much as any external punishment. However, the suppressor’s noise reduction performance is not as good as longer options. SilencerCo estimates that a 9mm equipped with an Omega emits 131.5dB and provides 28.5dB noise reduction. It is not the best, but it is still a good size. The Revolution 9 can be customized to meet your needs. The 9mm suppressor is modular in design. It comes in two versions: full length and what Griffin Armament calls its “K” version. The Rev 9 is 3-inches shorter with the latter arrangement. This makes it a more versatile unit that can be used as a nightstand gun, or for other purposes. The Rev 9 has plenty of sound suppression. The Rev 9’s 7.6-inch suppressor cuts 34dB off a 9mm report by using booster housing and all eight baffles. The Rev 9’s smaller “K” configuration has three less baffles, but still provides a respectable 32dB noise suppression. As you might expect, the suppressor is a little heavier at 11.2 ounces in full length. The Rev 9 is slightly heavier at 11.2 ounces at full length. However, the “K” configuration reduces that weight to 9.7 ounces. Target grids and bullseye sizes can be downloaded in MOA. This is a great option for long-range shooting.
