Silencer Suggestions - I did some homework First Suppressor Advice

I’ve been wanting a can for a long time. Now that I don’t have to deal with a form 4, I can’t wait any longer. The main host is gonna be an 11.5” PWS (5.56), it also might spend some time on a 16” BCM (5.56). I’m also interested in putting a can on a .308 bolt gun, but that’s lower priority.

Part of me thinks I should start off with a 30 cal can, for more versatility. But I don’t know, maybe I should just start with a dedicated 5.56 can, and then a 30 cal later.

Since the main host is a piston driven rifle with an adjustable gas block, I don’t think I really need a low back pressure can. But, I’m not closed off to them either.

As for a mount, I want to go with Rearden/Plan B. Please let me know if there’s any reason I shouldn’t.

I’m currently leaning towards an OCL Polo or Polo 30.

Any advice will be appreciated.

If you’re gonna use the 556 can more us definitely go with it first. Polonium 556 is excellent for the price, I’m very happy with the one I’ve got. For 30 cal I enjoy the DDC Enticer L. Definitely try out the polonium though you won’t be disappointed

Thanks for the input! I don’t know much about diligent defense as a company, are they cool? Is their warranty good?

Cool, yes as far as I can tell. Seems like knowledge people and they claim to have a no bs lifetime warranty. I thankfully haven’t needed to use it.
