    With their quote system, I've read this is 426. I've purchased from them in the past.

    It's crazy what 20 bucks will make you do....
    Was gonna buy one anyway. Got the one I wanted, not forced to accept another model.Feel like i made out compared to gunjokers $30 shipping and untold till you checkout fees and BS. Cheaper than the unknown "backorder" at silencer shop too. Total was less than the list price there.

    Welcome to the ATF e-forms black hole. It's actually better than it used to be believe it or not, but it's still a very clunky system. At least the wait times are a fraction of what they used to be, so once you get through the whole process you're not typically waiting another year before you can take it home.

    Thanks. Can is also rated for 22 hornet? Don't think I've ever seen one.

    Welcome to the dark side! LOL
    Yep. I can see how it could. Don't really think I'll need one for other calibers. Maybe a .30 cal one, lol.
    ** A&M only charges $30. Fyi.
    Also saw an 8 inch charger there for a very reasonable $$. Non take down.

    Random question: Will this add any back pressure? Would be nice to run cheap ammo in the P17 again. Optic added weight to the slide and the cheap stuff won't run now.

    A "can" can cause back pressure problems with semi-auto rifles. My Rossi RS22 22lr runs great suppressed. My Rossi RS22 22WMR will not feed the next round suppressed.

    A suppressor on a bolt or other manually cycled action, no problems.

    My 22 handguns work fine with a suppressor with standard or high velocity ammo.

    I had a squib round in my TX22 shooting Winchester subsonic ammo.

    I just bought a Bergara BMR 22lr to play with suppressed.

    I have 4 suppressors, 2 are rimfire, one is 30 cal rated and one is 45 rated up to 45-70.

    Thanks. Hopefully won't have any issues with my 22 mag cmr30.
    What rimfire cans?
    Did the squib round clear the barrel?

    I have a Hydra and a Sig in 22lr.

    If a round squibs, by definition it did not clear the barrel. Fortunately I realized the funny "pop" and unburnt powder on my hands was indicative of a problem.

    I had to drive the bullet out with a brass dowel and a hammer.

    My 30 and 45 cans ate both Rugged brand.
