Thinking about getting a 40 or 45 ACP carbine suppressor host. Any suggestions?

Full auto Mac 10/45?

jjoker16 · Aug 17, 2015

.45 ar or a distant 2nd, just right carbine. Full auto Mac is probably cooler and way more fun though.

Justright Carbine or Kriss Vector. Both are a blast to shoot.

If you're on a budget, get the Justright... inexpensive and takes all AR furniture, Glock Mags, and is fully ambidextrous.

I like the way you think. Unfortunately, I've got sub $1k budget. For those who've used the JRC, how do you like it? Any issues, especially suppressed?

I haven't fired it suppressed, but the JRC is a solid workhorse. Runs through ammo without issue. I replaced the rail on it just because I didn't like the mini rail that it comes with and slapped some sights on it. Great weapon that carries out the plan of the day and the price is right.

How about the TNW aero rifle? Just came across that one.

Kriss is a HORRIBLE suppressor host, the bolt does not have enough mass or delay and tends to give you splatter and bad ejection port noise.

JRC or Beretta CX4 for the money are very hard to beat and handle well.

HogHunter1203 · Aug 17, 2015

eMGunslinger, I was hoping you might show up. Just saw the IA video on your integral 45 AR. What are the chances of getting an integral barrel for a JRC?

noob · Aug 17, 2015

Any reason you don't want to go 9mm? I think there are more options in your price range in that field.... My 9mm AR cycles subs just fine.

HogHunter1203 · Aug 17, 2015

I have a sub2k 9mm and like it a lot. Considering a JRC so I can get the caliber conversion. Is there an pistol cartridge AR option that allows for caliber changes?

My first thought was transferable Mac too, but if that isn't an option, maybe a MasterPiece Arms semi in carbine or SBR format. For a stock/parts for the latter, US Machinegun has compatible ones. Beyond that, I've seen suppressed Marlin Camp-45s that look like fun. Cheers.

kingfhb · Aug 18, 2015

The Kriss rifle converted to an SBR with the pistol barrel (not recommended... it's expensive, if you can find the barrel, and it has to be done by a professional. I would suggest cutting down the rifle barrel and having it threaded) runs solid with the Osprey suppressor and Kriss's recommended Defiance HPS 4GSK. Most 230g ammo will run quiet and nicely though the Vector Suppressed, however, American Eagle Suppressed .45ACP ammo is optimal. To date and thousands of rounds later... not one problem noted with regards to noise or splatter.

Suppress it.

I always thought the delisle carbines were pretty cool. Granted they are an integral but if there was something like it minus the integrated suppressor that would be perfect. If you aren't stuck on 45 acp could look into a 45 colt handi rifle. Another option would be a lever action in either 44 mag or 45 colt. I have a marlin 1894C in 357 mag that I got threaded for a silencer. Super quiet with 38 specials.

Now that's speaking my language. When I first got the bug for another host, I wanted to do 45 LC, but couldn't find much info on them don't really feel like threading a vaquero or my Henry. A suppressed marlin sounds like a good idea. Does the suppressor interfere with the tube magazine?

I guess a Thompson would be a little much...

No it doesn't. I have heard that sometimes the tube has to be shortened a little bit so that it doesn't interfere with the silencer but don't think that was the case on mine.

I'm waiting on my stamp for my .45LC SBR mare's leg. I chose to use a chiappa 1892. I chose it because it looks REALLY easy to shorten the mag tube and then have the barrel threaded. The front sight is also integrated into the barrel clamp/band so it is easy to change out. I'm going to use an Osprey for it. I also chose the 1892 instead of a henry because i didnt want to have to unscrew the can every time i needed to reload.

Quarter circle 10 has AR lowers that utilizes glock magazines. Small and large frame glocks. I'm waiting on their 10mm bolt and barrel. They're also on the way with side charging uppers.

I'm going to leave this here....
