So, I am finally able and ready to take the plunge and get into the suppressor game. I have been reading several forum posts here in preparation, and it sounds like my local Class 3 dealer is going to walk me through the entire paperwork and stamp process which is excellent. So I am confident in that part of it. However, I have just about zero clue on which suppressor I should get.
A few months ago I purchased two muzzle devices (SureFire SF3P-556's) because I was dead-set I was going with a SureFire suppressor. Well, as the time nears closer I am conflicted. Two on sale right now have caught my eye, the SOCOM-SB 556 QD, and the SOCOM-RC 556 QD.
There is a $20 difference in the two currently, so I am splitting hairs, but this might be the only suppressor I buy for quite a while and I want to make sure I am going to buy something that lasts.
Which ever I choose will be mainly on my MK18 build I am working on, as well as an 11.5" BCM pistol, and possibly my Tavor or DD RECCE. The purpose will be home defense exclusively at this time. I want to mitigate the blast as much as possible indoors, even though with the 5.56 it will never be hearing safe, I completely understand that.
In M4's professional opinion, would these be good options? Or should I keep save up and look elsewhere? Or are there factors or questions I am missing, or not asking?
