Okay I've changed my mind and have come to appreciate the Omega 9k.

I appreciate the shorter length & lighter weight.

What also helped push me into the "fan" corner is I found it's hearing safe on my Beretta M21A .25! Yea, a little big for the M21A, but it works great!

Works well on my Beretta Cheetah .32's and VZ61, too, when using milder loadings.
