A subsonic 9mm is going to probably be somewhere around the territory of a. is "sub-sonic 9mm powerful enough to do the job?" Probably. why not use the one that's slow but 60+% larger? 45 caliber projectile is generally going to be loaded closer to 800-900FPS which is already subsonic - meaning you don't need to artificially handicap the velocity to obtain safe sound levels.īasically you're going to have to use a SLOW projectile. If you slow it down then it's just slow and small. ![]() In order to really 'quiet' the round down you must slow the projectile down below the speed of sound. Breaking the sound barrier creates a very loud crack/pop, of course. The problem with 9mm through a suppressor for self defense purposes is that many/most self defense 9mm loads are supersonic (IE, break the sound barrier) or very close to it. SUBSONIC – 1x Failure to Feed (Flat Point issue), 3x Failures to return to battery I posted a few videos in some of the P365 FB groups to show how quiet it was shooting suppressed as well as the issues the stock RSA had with the cans I own.ġ0x Winchester 147 GR.

Hit and miss results when shooting suppressed.ġ0x Winchester 147 GR. Just looking for first hand knowledge from people that have ran one suppressed. I want to be able to use it for home protection without damaging my ears, and the dogs. Has anyone ran their P365 suppressed? I am looking for something that is short, but still hearing safe. If the P365 is the pistol you want to use then suit yourself, but if "money were no consideration" very few people would organically end up with a suppressed p365 as their home defense weapon of choice. I'm an advocate of doing what ya want and sometimes 'sub-optimal' still is plenty good at getting the job done. But as soon as you slap a 6+ inch suppressor on it, going between 13.3 inches and 11.8 inches isn't going to have much practical difference.Īnd so now you have this honkin' big pistol with a suppressor on the end and you have to hold it up using the teenie tiny grips that the P365 has.īut hey. Going from 7.3 inches(g19) in overall length vs 5.8 (P365) when stuffed in your pants makes a difference. The P365's strong suit is being tiny and even the smallest suppressors are going about double the length of the pistol. Everything from the caliber of the cartridge to the size of the pistol is really going to be working against you. There are a lot of reasons why a P365 is a 'sub-optimal' platform for a suppressor. There is no reason you couldn't run one suppressed, although you might probably need a different weight recoil spring assembly depending on what loads you run through it. ![]()
