SSS.6.162 - Combat Application Technologies CAT/SC/B1 and the HK P30L (Free Version)

The CAT/SC/B1 (CAT SC) is a lightweight, highly advanced, and modular centerfire pistol silencer that exhibits extreme sound signature suppression performance for both operators and bystanders. The silencer’s combined performance, flow rate, and modularity, represent the most significant advancement in centerfire 9mm pistol suppression in recent history. The CAT SB-SHOCK technology, adapting characteristics from both SURGE BYPASS and DiVerge, results in maximizing performance in relatively small design envelopes; a significant benefit in suppressed handgun applications.

In this review, the CAT SC performance metrics depend upon suppressing a full-size handgun firing a full-power subsonic centerfire pistol cartridge. How would the CAT SC silencer perform on your self-defense handgun, in both long and short configurations?

SSS.6.148 - Combat Application Technologies CAT/MOB/A1 and the Heckler and Koch SP5 9x19mm Subgun (Free Version)

The CAT/MOB/A1 (CAT MOB) is a lightweight and highly advanced 36 caliber submachine gun silencer that exhibits extreme sound signature suppression performance. For its size and weight envelope, the MOB’s performance is even more significant. Notably, the CAT DiVerge technology in the MOB silencer appears to regulate the varied low pressure conditions throughout each stage of the silencer, reducing backpressure while simultaneously achieving maximum signature suppression. The CAT MOB exhibits the most advanced submachine gun suppression performance evaluated by the PEW Science laboratory, to date.

In this review, the CAT MOB performance metrics depend upon suppressing a subsonic centerfire pistol cartridge on a roller-delayed blowback submachine gun. How would the CAT MOB perform on your 9mm pistol caliber carbine (PCC)?

SSS.6.118 - AAC Ti-RANT 9M-HD, 9M, 9 and the HK P30L (Free Version)

The AAC Ti-RANT 9M-HD is preceded in development, design, and distribution by two legacy models; the AAC Ti-RANT 9M (2017) and the original AAC Ti-RANT 9 (circa 2009). At the time of distribution, the original Ti-RANT 9 was colloquially referred to as the “quietest 9mm centerfire pistol silencer” available. The publication of this case study in the Silencer Sound Standard research pedigree, by PEW Science, is intended to recognize the historical significance of the Ti-RANT 9 family of silencers and to provide a state-of-the-art performance evaluation of the models on a modern host firearm.

In this review, all AAC Ti-RANT 9 variant performance metrics depend upon suppressing a full-size handgun firing a full-power subsonic centerfire pistol cartridge. How would any AAC Ti-RANT 9 silencer perform on your self-defense handgun?
