Default Omega 9k $420

That's a great price, includes a $100 3 lug mount.

https://armsunlimited.com/silencerco...tri-lug-mount/

If you're not familiar with these, they are intended for 9mm subgun/PCC/MP5 type guns. They can also handle Blackout subs, and maybe supers too. I can't remember seeing them under 500 bucks before, and that's without the 3 lug.

My guess is some agency ordered a bunch of these, maybe the IRS for their new agents. But then the order got canceled. I'd get one myself, but I already have stuff that can perform that role.

That's a pretty darn good deal. I was thinking this past week about getting a Century Arms AP5. That suppressor would be perfect for it.
I just need to figure out if I want the 8.9"-barrel AP5, or the 5.75" barreled AP5-P that is like the MP5K version.

The short one has a muzzle flush with the sight thing, no threads on the end. Makes your decision easy.

BTW, PSA has it on sale for $999.

I was thinking of these ones. I can't find one for $999.00 from PSA. Do you have a link by chance?

Those are expensive ones, $1500+. The short ones that are $900 are these:



These are somewhat bigger, the same size as the original MP5, but the barebones ones still come with a 3 lug.



https://palmettostatearmory.com/cent...hg6034a-n.html

Use the code "CENTURY" like it says, for $300 off.

If you want optics without using a claw mount, the Pic rail is 50 bucks. I've read some complaints about it though.

edit: After watching this youtube, I found out that the one above that you posted is:
AP5-P

The $900 one in this post is:
AP5-M

The $999 one in this post is:
AP5

That's a great can for P90/PS90 as well. As noted, perfect for MP5K clones.

Man, this is a great deal esp, w the tri-lug mount. I'm very tempted for a dedicated tri-lug can setup. Still waiting on 3 other stamps!!

BTW, on that AP5-P mentioned above, I think I read somewhere that the handguard at the front is too close to the 3 lug, and some cans are impossible to put on w/out bubba-butchering the handguard. You can still use the threads, but the whole purpose of the clone is to use the 3 lug.

Here's what it looks like from my AP5-P. Can confirm it's really close/tight fit, but can't verify/test as I'm still waiting on my 9mm can! May have to switch to a different hand guard

Yeah, scroll up to the MrGunsnGear youtube I posted. He has a can on it in the pic. He switched to a Magpul handguard I think. This could be the reason why.

I pinged my local AZ FFL and we got a group buy going. Ended up being $400 each. He said even at $420, that was $90 below his wholesale. Good deal for a dedicated tri-lug setup!

Did you get the story behind them and why they're so cheap?

Is the 3 lug mount an adapter, or is it an integral part of the suppressor? Would I be able to mount this on an SP5 with a 3-lug mount, and then use it on a 300 BLK pistol with a threaded barrel?

Nope, my FFL guessed its probably clearing out for excess inventory + year-end.

It's a 3 lug adapter that's included with this. So should be able to do what you described.

Except they are bulk packed, not with retail packaging. Also, SilencerCo doesn't sell them with the 3 lug mount. You have to buy it separately. That's what made me think it was originally part of an LE/military buy that got canceled.

BTW, if you have one of the K format guns, the SB Tactical brace on sale at PSA MAY fit.

Thanks to sigstroker posting about that can, I went ahead an ordered one. I also ordered an AP5 and picked that up yesterday. The suppressor should be here after the 1st, then the long wait begins.

My Omega 9K suppressor showed up at my FFL yesterday. It is a good-looking unit and I think it will go perfect with my new AP5. I think I am really going to like the tri-lug mount set up that it comes with too. We did the E-file form 4 on it yesterday as well. Now for the long wait.

Nice that your dealer lets you play with it. Where are the pics with it on your AP5 and you going pew pew?

Edit: Hey, that looks like retail packaging. Wonder why the ad said it was bulk packed.

I really thought about taking my AP5 with me to get some great gun porn, but I left in a hurry and forgot.
It did come in the regular box with tool and stickers. Maybe they offered bulk packaging if you bought multiples.
