Just bought this today. Waiting begins yet again.

I had been moving my YHM Cobra between my two .45s with threaded barrels. Now the Cobra is staying on the ParaOrdnance and the Sig 220 is getting it's own suppressor. The pistol in the pic is the one the Osprey is going on.

Nice, is the square design for added volume? What's the baffle system like?

Us blue collar guys resort to buying 1 .45 suppressor and adapters for every handgun we own. I still need to get a 7.62 suppressor for all my rifles.

Wow, never saw a suppressor based on a rectangle shape before.

I was just reading up on them. Apparently its for added volume and it also allows you to use stock sights.

And easier to holster.

How does it attach? I think the reason most suppressors are round is so that the pitch of the threads where it starts on the clock doesn't matter as once its screwed on, it doesn't matter as its still symetrical in how it lines up on the pistol.

But a square one? How'd they pull that off to get it square/level with the rest of the pistol? Must be some sort of quick detach... the QD likely screws to the barrel, but then maybe a clip to get the suppressor on the QD?

How's the attachment part work?

Nice!
I'm thinking about a 30 cal. can for my next one.

There's some kind of cam apparently. When you screw it on, you release this cam to index it and then lock it in place. I think that's what I read, anyway.

What are you thinking about? I've been pretty happy with my YHM Phantom 7.62. I use it on my 5.56 rifles too with the QD mounts.

...not sure yet. I have a YHM Stainless Mite.
AAC looks good, I have an EVO-9.
