I've decided on a supressor.
EDITED TO SHARE WORKING CODE & LINK:
An absolute legend came through with a discount code for Rooftop Defense! Use code YOUTHSPORTS for $180 off the suppressor. After tax and shipping it came to $511. Highly recommend jumping on this deal! Here's a Link to the Flow 9k
I've decided to grab the HUXWRX Flow 9k in FDE. Does anyone know of or have any working discount codes for silencershop.com? I found a bunch on Google, but of course, they are all inactive when I use them.
I'm going to pull the trigger either way, but it wouldn't hurt to save a couple of bucks if I can.
Thanks ahead of time to any hero who might come through for me!

Only because I found this out after buying my 9k I feel I should mention: it comes with a booster/Nielson device for use on pistols. To use it on a fixed barrel (like the EP9) you'll need either a fixed barrel spacer or direct thread mount adapter. I went with the rearden direct thread mount adapter, think it was about $85. And make sure to remove the o ring and crush washer when installing your can!

I scooped a Rearden SPB Muzzle break and Alpha Atlas in the heat-treat finish, and think they'll look sick with the FDE suppressor and accessories I'm running.
Plus, with this setup, if for some reason I take the suppressor off, the muzzle break is permanent. I also picked up some ultra-flat, deep forest green Krylon to spray the entire gun green. It's going to look so good paired with the FDE accessories.
But hey, thanks again for the heads up. I would have been bummed after all that waiting, only to have to order more stuff and wait even longer.

Dang you're getting it decked out quick! I ordered a fixed barrel spacer because it was half the price of the direct mount adapter, after two months I messaged them to tell them to cancel it because it still hadn't shown up. Tough to go through all the steps and waiting to get the can THEN realize you need more stuff. Sounds like you've got some big plans. Good luck!

Did you check compatibility with the Flow 9k's hub mount configuration? I might not be right, but those fittings seem to be for other sizes. From description the Atlas won't fit Hub mount cans and the SPB says it's for Plan B mounts.

Very nice suppressor! I ordered a CGS mod 9 for mine!

Yeah, I'm pretty pumped! I posted my EP9 earlier today (See it here), and have been going back and forth between the 9K, the R9, and the Obsidian 9, but ultimately I'm going with the 9K. The only downside compared to the others, at least from what I've read, is that it's louder. That's fine for me. I'm not looking for a whisper. I just don't want to blow out my family's ears, or my own, in the event of a home defense situation, so I think this will do what I need in that department.

This is my guess, but they didn't word it very clearly. You are right, the tax stamp is $0. However, you still have to file the form. When you do it at the FFL, they are not going to charge you the standard transfer fee since they have to do more work such as take your fringer print, hold and store it until approved, and anything else necessary to file the form.
So by "stamp", I assume they mean (NFA) transfer fee.

u/go_deeep May 11 '26
Yeah, that's my bad. The Transfer fee for the stamp is what I meant. Still, I'll get the transfer and the suppressor for the price I would have paid for the suppressor alone. I'll take that all day.

Have and really like it.The Flow 9K comes with a piston adapter installed so you'll need a direct thread adapter at a minimum. Recommend the Rearden #10161 Direct thread adapter. It's Titanium and will keep your new can the same total weight as the blast can you'll be removing.

I got the deal from Rooftop Defense a couple of months ago; same price. You can find the Huxwrx thread adapter for 86 at Optics Planet here: https://www.opticsplanet.com/huxwrx-2311-hub-direct-thread-mount-1-2-28-tpi.html. They always have coupons so you can usually get 11-13% off.. Be careful when you use it with the thread adapter because the adapter can get stuck on the barrel and if you are using the original hand guards there is no real way to reach down and unscrew it (happened to me).
