SSS.6.91 - Resilient Suppressors RS9 and the Heckler and Koch SP5K-PDW 9x19mm PDW Subgun

The Resilient Suppressors RS9 is a compact and lightweight submachinegun silencer that exhibits extremely high suppression performance at the shooter’s ear, for its size. The silencer possesses a unique performance trait of increased overall performance with higher muzzle pressure; a characteristic allowing higher performance on shorter-barreled host weapons. This performance trait is atypical of many silencers.

In this review, the Resilient Suppressors RS9 performance metrics depend upon suppressing a subsonic centerfire pistol cartridge on a roller-delayed blowback submachinegun personal defense weapon (PDW). How would the Resilient Suppressors RS9 perform on your compact PDW 9mm pistol caliber carbine (PCC)?

Bolt-action weapons allow for the elimination of variables to study pure sound signature suppression phenomena. PEW Science is continuing bolt-action and automatic rifle weapon testing, analysis, and research. The purpose of this Public Research Supplement is to present a first-look at muzzle blast phenomenology for a new addition to the published host weapon systems in the Standard; the so-called “pistol caliber carbine,” (PCC), or submachinegun, chambered in 9x19mm NATO.
