I'm considering buying a Silencerco Osprey to suppress a .45 ACP pistol. I will be using a Colt 1911 with a Stormlake threaded barrel.
My primary purpose for it will be home defense. Less sound and flash make for much improved night vision and situational awareness. My secondary purpose for it would be competition and target shooting.
Concerns/Questions:
It looks awfully cumbersome. Unlike a rimfire pistol with a rimfire suppressor, a 1911 with an Osprey looks very nose heavy and long.
Would a carbine with a suppressor be better suited than a pistol with a suppressor?
Does anyone make a holster for it? I figure across the chest like how people carry .454 Casulls, .500 Magnums, and other big revolvers.
I assume people do buy them and there is a market considering Silencerco made a pistol suppressor BEFORE a rifle suppressor. I think a rifle suppressor makes more sense, but evidently, pistol suppressors are the cat's meow at Silencerco
