Putting everything in motion to get an AAC Ti-RANT 9S
« on: February 14, 2013, 10:00:46 pm »
Dealer showed me one and I do believe that is what I am getting as my "One major gun item per year" thing this year. It's a 9mm suppressor that is meant to be run a little wet but is nice and fairly compact. The nice thing about this one is it can be taken apart for cleaning and service  so it'll serve as a .22 suppressor too.

Now to find a threaded bbl for my M&P 9mm. Also planning on getting a 9mm Colt AR when all this nuttiness settles down.

I don't THINK I'll ever have to face down routers in the streets.

I should hope not. Mobs of rogue woodworking tools would suck to repel.

    As one who just took possesion of his TiRant9, (no 'S') I can say that I'm glad I didn't go cheap.  The quality is apparent, and the Class III dealer told me that they weigh about half of what steel suppressors do.  AACs are expensive, but I feel that it was worth it.

    One thing to note, is that the disassembly tool is not included, and must be purchased seperately. :shrug

    I'm a big believer in buy quality or go home.

    I am another happy AAC owner, though mine is a rifle can. I haven't needed it yet, but I frequently see their customer service in the form of questions (or even complaints) on other forums and AAC employees who are members offer to take care of it via PM.

    One thing to note, is that the disassembly tool is not included, and must be purchased seperately.

    This is a minor complaint, but like high-end cars, everything is an extra when it comes to cans. I was a little bummed when I bought my $1,000 rifle can and had to shell out another $100 for a mount, which wasn't included. But after the can and the stamp, that mount was easy on the wallet. And $100-175 per gun (the .308 mounts are more expensive for some reason; either that or the brakes are more than the flash hiders. not sure :shrug ) is a lot easier than a grand per can. So far, including the stamp and 3 mounts, I've got about $1600 in it to suppress three different rifles. Pretty good, I'd say.

    I may even pick up a rifle can soon too.

    I just wanted a pistol can first...

    What made you go with a wet can as a first can?

    Keep the rubber side down, and your powder dry!

    Compactness for one and to me a wet can isnt a big deal (if you have to you can spit in it or pour a little water in it for the media but I plan to use wire pulling gel like most)
