So, I ended up making a can (form1) and did a few test cycles today with cci suppressor rated ammo (950fps I think?). Anyway, definitely quieter with the can on vs not but... I dunno,e expected way more. 5.5" barrel into 7" can (35mm OD). You could shoot this all day of course with no ears on, but it's just not doing it for me.

What is currently the quietest can sailing currently? I original was going to try something from the FTN line but ended up going down this rabbit hole of making my own LOL. I mean, it did work so I'm not going to be super hard on myself...just didn't work well enough for what I'm looking for.

I wonder how much you can mitigate that with a printed receiver and a Proto Barrel. More plastic, less metal, quieter action?

Yeah, I'm sure if the receiver was printed it would cut the noise down quite a lot.
