My understanding is a lot of semi auto pistols just don't run right with suppressors.

Here is an article that tested some suppressor ready 1911s. Half didn't work right.

Thanks so much again! Yeah, if the can affects the blowback and causes cycle failures that's not a good thing. I''ll have to be careful with that. Also the thing about lifting the sights.

While I personally can't have them here in NJ. Although, I'll be one of the name plaintiffs in the lawsuit we're filing. That a story for another day. I have shot many in my career.
Since I'm running optics my firearm have been outfitted with suppressor height sights. I also already have threaded barrels on on them.
They are 9mm. Will have to get subsonic rounds.

Perfect round for it. I do have a Glock 21 that i wouldn't mind suppressing either.
