SSS.6.9 - Research Supplement: MOD9 FS, Obsidian 45, and Trident-9 Further Analysis (Members Only)

The previous Sound Signature Reviews of the CGS MOD9 FS (6.6), Rugged Obsidian 45 (6.7), and SWR Trident-9 (6.8) presented typical sound signatures of the silencers on a full-size 9mm semiautomatic combat handgun.

This members-only research supplement is intended to provide more information to PEW Science members with regard to specific sound signature characteristics of the tested configurations in the aforementioned reviews and to help frame objective loudness comparisons between the three silencers; both in first round pop (FRP) and average sound signature. This supplement is part of ongoing PEW Science small arm weapon system sound signature research.
