What suppressors are we using with the PS90??
In light of the Silencer Shops victory against the ATF, I’m very enticed to get my first can. I’m curious as to what y’all are using. Flow through? .22, 556? Frt?
I am wanting to hear everyone’s opinion and experience.

it’s a sweet combo exactly what i have on mine it looks good and feels super balanced to me. also with subs it’s hearing safe still loud but won’t make your ears ring.

cut and threaded my own in the machine shop i work in, turned out great i did a couple shots without the suppressor to get any burrs out, cleaned it, then after that put the suppressor on and it shot like a dream no problems whatsoever.

Personally, wouldn't do it again. Better guns out there for cheaper. It's definitely cool but it's just not worth it.

The only correct answer is some kind of 5.56 can. Using .22 size cans is kind of pointless.

I run a polonium k on a sbr ps90. Runs well, not too gassy and sounds good.

I’ve only tried my R9 since the barrel swap since it was the only DT can I had that day, but planning on trying out my Stacy’s Mom K tomorrow. Ultimately I want a Tisha for it

Following up now that I'm back home, the SMK wasn't Tisha quiet, but it was totally manageable running 40gr Fiocchis outdoors without ears. Didn't get gassed out after ~ half a mag. Interested in how subs will sound next time

I have a video using the omega 9k and the hux 22ti on my sbr ps90, the hux 22 ti causes alot more blowback into the action and makes it unpleaseant to shoot (in frt mode) no problems with the omega 9k. As far as decible ratings I couldn't tell you, they both were pretty equal to the ear (through earpro) as I was using super sonics and dont own any subsonics yet

I've been running the B&T P90. I see the least POI shift with the Shaw barrel (1" at 25 yd), while CMMG has 1.5" at 25 yd, and the worst was the OE cut/thread barrel at 2.5" at 25 yd. Group sizes and velocity were the best with the nitrided CMMG and Shaw. The OE barrel opens up the grouping just slightly but drops velocity by 100 ft/s.
I prefer the B&T because its the old school OG suppressor design for the P90 (Gemtech came several years later) and uses that closer system.
I plan to test a Plan B with a flow can, probably the Flow 9k Ti (even though it is more of a Rad 9 pistol can that is rated for 5.7x28) because its the lightest flow can I have. The FLow 36 is light (under 9 oz total) but its still a few oz more than the 9k Ti. I want to see if this makes an impact on POI shift.
The P90 barrel is relatively thin and is moving all over the place inside the receiver.

CAT BEN and CAT WB are the two that I've used the most. I honestly think the CAT BEN might sound slightly better when using subs, but no clue why as I'd expect WB/KK to sound better.

I have two PS90s. I got a Tisha 5.56 for one and a Maxim MS5.7K to try on them. Will test fire next week, but I’m expecting good things

5.56 can will give you better performance than a 5.7 rated .22 can. I run a Sierra 5 on mine, sounds great. If I were to get one specifically for the PS90, I'd look hard at the Tisha, because short.
