@TacticalMedic DA Wolfman.
You will not be disappointed!

 

Second this. This is the set up I’m waiting on now. My DA wolfman has been in limbo for just over 12 months now. My buddy’s was approved a couple of weeks ago and we submitted the same day. Hopefully soon 🤞🏻

 

looking around at the various suppressors and want to utilize the existing 3 lug mount on the SP5 specifically.

i have several suppressors currently but all use the 1/2 x 28 TPI piston.

i ran across the Rugged Obsidian 9 that has the 3 lug mount option available. has anybody went this route yet?

also looked at the Surefire Ryder 9 with the 3 lug mount as well.

if not, what are you using that you like?

I recently bought the SF Ryder 9 MP5, but it’s in jail atm. I bought it because the mounting system was designed around the mp5 platform. They seem to be hard to find though.

 

they are hard to find. that was the first one i wanted and im on a BO list currently buts its been a couple months now with no news. thats why i started looking at others.

 

You have a lot of options to choose from no matter which can you end up going with. The rugged platform is the same as Sico so you can use either of the tri lug mounts on both platforms. However the rugged tri lug mount doesn’t sit as secure as the Sico tri lug mount. There is a little bit of wiggle from my experience. The Sico mount definitely does not have any wiggle if at all.

 

good to know, thanks. i'm a SiCo fan myself and have several of their various models.

 

For reference so you get an idea of how close it sits on the gun.

First pic is the Rugged mount.
Next is the Sico mount.

 

thanks for talking the time to take pics and show me.

 

I ended up getting an Obsidian 45 to use with my UMP and SP5. Both have tri-lug so its easy to swap between hosts with the can. Might be a direction to consider.

 

I used an Obsidian 45 with the Rugged 3-lug on my Z-5RS, and it worked fine. I’ve since swapped to a Wolfman for my 9mm subguns.

 

I have a 3-lug adapter on an AAC Evolution 9 that I’ve been using on a subgun for years. I love the 3-lug attachment.

 

I'm gonna have to say Wolfman on this one.

 

Quietbore 9mm form 1 kit and a Creative Arms tri lug adapter. Works perfect on my SP5, and CZ S2 Scorpion I SBR'ed.

 

Might you consider just getting a 3 lug adapter to replace the piston adapter for one of your current suppressors?

 

my two 9mm suppressors are Advanced Armament (AAC) and they still haven't quite caught up since they were bought from remington after the fire sale. i believe my best bet is going to be a new suppressor with a 3 lug but thats why i am asking here what others have done.

 

Works good. Wolfman.

 

GLS Phoenix for full sized MP5s, Wolfman for K. Most of the others reference here are pistol cans and just don't have the volume of the Phoenix or Wolfman.

 

I agree, if buying a new can dedicated to a subgun, those are great. I just brought up the adapter w/pistol can because it can be a good option if you 1) already have a pistol can that is compatible with a 3-lug adapter, or 2) want a flexible "one can to rule them all" option instead of buying multiple cans.

FWIW, the volume (both displacement volume and noise volume) has never been an issue with mine. Lots of quiet mag dumps through it over the years with no issues whatsoever.

 

@gsyoung54 You know
Your MP5's

 

I'm officially old and was around when we could get NFA guns cheap, now an 07/02 and run a small shop mostly for public safety and my own... uhm, learning.

 

Omega 36m is a stout unit. Lots of options. Run it short or long.
Great reviews. Been eyeing one for a bit.

 

MOD9 SK.

 

Did my research, wolfman in jail, 4 months and counting. Silencer shop.

 

Follow up to my post (#19) MKE (new import) AP5 with MKE flash hider attached

 

I chose the GSL Phoenix for the performance and that old school sub gun look. If I didn't go old school for my SP5 and PDW I think I would've gone with the Wolfman. Seems like it's a great performer and the modularity would be nice if you have a full size and k model.

 

DA Wolfman is what I use on my SP5 with the 3 lug from Dead Air. Works great!

 

Yes I run a three lug only way to go in my opinion. You can remove your can from one to next in seconds and zero is impacted at all I run a Gem Tech 9 and 150 grain bullets and no ears required. I really like the three lug...
I think three lug is the only way go in my opinion. You can remove the can and move it to a different gun with no impact issues at all. I run a GemTech 9 and with 150 grain no ears required but recommended. I wish I could run a three lug on more guns it's a great locking method.

 

I would vote Wolfman, you will not be disappointed.

I took my nephew out with a friend of his from school (right before they both graduated from the Naval Academy and his friend is training to be a SEAL). We all fired around a hundred or so rounds through the SP5-Wolfman config. and after we were done, my nephew turn to me and said "that was the coolest thing that I have ever done."

 

I have the SICO new 3 lug low profile adapter and use it with my hybrid. It is pricy but nice

 

thanks for all the suggestions. i got notification this morning that the Surefire Ryder MP5 came back in stock so i went with that one. it will likely be dedicated to my SP5 due to the 3 lug but i will probably pick up a few 3 lug adapters for other firearms just in case i like it over my existing 9mm cans.

 

got the call today to come and pick up my Surefire Ryder 9-MP5 suppressor. brought it home and will hopefully try it out this weekend if the weather cooperates.

 

The B&T RQD FS and Compact are similar to the Surefire Ryder-9 MP5, both use a 3-lug and ratchet system to secure it. B&T also just released their RBS SQD suppressor, (reduced backpressure system) (super quick detach) where it pops on and off the 3 lug using cams to lock in place.
Other Good Choices to consider:
Omega 9k - Great compact and very quiet can. You can buy a 3-lug adapter.
Dead Air Wolfman - you'll get a FS and compact with one suppressor, the FS is stupid quiet and the compact is really quiet too
YHM R9 - Great compact and versatile can that can shoot multiple calipers. Can swap in a 3-lug adapter

 

To piggyback on this thread, does anyone know if the Ryder 9 MP5 will work with the Surefire weaponlight forends? I’ve heard the Omega 9k with the old style adapter will work, but I’m looking for additional options.
