I've been looking at these for a while. Seems like too good of a deal to pass up. But the one thing holding me back is what appears to be too short of a barrel to put a suppressor on. The rails on all models look like it will protrude just past the threads prohibiting screwing a can on it. My current pistol ca is the osprey 9, which cannot do tri-lug. Is there an extension that you can get to extend it enough to thread on directly ?

It looks like the threads are not flush with the handguard....rendering my osprey 9 a no go.

Could get the 8.5” that has the fake can and un thread the can & get a shorter handguard. I’d call foxtrot mike / FM product... I’m sure they would take care of ya

How well did it run suppressed? I don't suppose you got much gas in the face since it's side charging. It looks like a standard blowback operation and makes me wonder what sound levels are like.

I’ll prob run it w/ suppressor in the 3rd or 4th part. Going to use my buddy’s silencerco next time he can hit the range with me.
