Looking to round out my NFA collection before it gets harder to do in June and I plan on getting a 22 can and a pistol can. Already have a Form 1'd 30-cal rifle can, and the Form 1 is in the work for a SBR.
That being said, I've kept coming back to SilencerCo's offerings for the following reasons:
Sparrow - Clam-shell inner tube for easier cleaning. My rifle can is hard enough to get the baffles out of, and I can only imagine messing with the results from .22's. Bonus points for being stainless (aside from the outer tube) so I can tumble with pins to clean. Downsides I read about are more pronounced first round pop and generally not being the quietest .22 can out there. Local dealer quoted $450 and has on hand.
Osprey 45: Large internal volume, less sight interference, can swap pistons out for 9mm/.40 down the line. Downsides are aluminum and not user-serviceable. I hear SilencerCo has great support if the can fills up with junk though. Local dealer quoted $725 and has on hand.
Any other suggestions or thoughts? He stocks the following manufacturers:
Advanced Armament Corp
Gem Tech
Silencerco
SWR
Surefire
Yankee Hill
Tactical Solutions
Huntertown Arms
Liberty
