I bought the ghost and got the mask for free. That was such a great deal.
Dude… I heard about that deal back in the day but I wasn’t on this suppressor groove at the time 😏
Lucky 🍀🤙👊🏻
That's how I got my ghost and mask. Great silencer shop deal
👍
@@CalebDowning I was just getting into myself and glad I jumped on the deal.
Question. Is DA410 gonna work with this suppressor as a direct fixed barrel mount on beretta M9 in 22lr. The thread pitch is 1/2×28.This way, you wouldn't need the piston or spacer.
Awesome thorough video! Thanks, Caleb !
Glad you enjoyed it Dominic 👊🏻
Im still waiting on my ghost but i got it for basically 2 ACPs, FNX-45 and a MCX rattler blackout subsonic
Mine sits on CMMG 10mm Banshee w/ 8.5" barrel. Works very well.
Nice 👍
Sig Sauer includes two pistol pistons in with their suppressors and a direct thread I believe. Which all manufacturers did that! How smart of them. 😂
That would be convenient 👌
Only downside is that it’s make the cost go up a little.
I enjoyed your Sierra 5 review/overview enough to sub and come back for some older vids, then watched this one and finally learned the perfect way to describe what a piston does on tilt-barrel guns: it temporarily detaches the can from the gun so it can cycle through all the extra weight (or words to that effect).
Then you pulled out Griffin Cam-LOK and I was all 🤯🤯🤯 as I’ve been systemizing my P320 collection on Cam-LOK, first my twin SiCo Osprey 45s and now a Wolfman and a Bushwhacker.
You’re a totally different style but I’ll put you right along Alabama Arsenal as my favorite silencer guntubers. Keep ‘em comin’!
Well dang, I’m flattered man 👊🏻 Thanks for the encouragement!
I’m always glad to help and it’s awesome to hear when y’all get something out of the videos 👍
Thanks I remember being able to tell the difference in sound on ur 9 mm comparison video sounded good
Ya buddy 👊🏻
Good video Caleb! Wished you lived closer so we could get together and compare the Ghost to my Nautilus.
The cgs nautilus was on my short list . Do they still produce it?
@@bobborlog1677 It's still available at Silencer Shop.
Hey Richard,
If you are ever plan a trip to AK be sure to bring your can and we’ll make it happen 😃 It would be cool to hook up with folks and do “in-person” can comparisons 🤔 That’s a good idea…
Another solid review like always! Just hit the year mark on my wait for my Wolfman. And at about 4 months wait so far for my Sandman S.
Thanks John 👊🏻
Sounds like your getting close ⌛️🤞
I feel your pain John. I waited 371 days for my Wolfman on paper, and have been waiting 221 days on my Nomad-L e form 🤦🏻♂️
@@trendy_d2103 Its brutal lol
I use my ghost for an ar45 and a 45 colt handi rifle. It does good on the 357 38 handi as well. In the short mode it's perfect on my g42 in 380acp .
Ooo, I haven’t thought about putting it on a 380… please say you tried it with the wipe 😃 I’ll bet that’s sound really slick.
Was at the end of 2018, buy a dead air get a ghost for 399. First two cans i bought.
Dude, that’s awesome! 👊🏻
Lucky dog 😎
You said it's better than some and worse than others...what do you recommend for a 45 FNX Tactical specifically for home defense? Never carried. Only taken out at bedtime and returned in the morning? Do you have a best rec?
The quietest option in my opinion is the Dead Air Primal. They thing works super well on my 45 1911.
The SilencerCo Omega 45k is pretty close to the performance of the Ghost and is a solid choice.
The Ghost itself is pretty light weight and does a good job at cutting the noise down even in the short configuration.
So it’s hard to pick one perfect can. It would be a toss between the Ghost and Omega 45K for me. The Primal is a clear winner in the sound department but it’s longer, thicker, and heavier 🤷♂️
You snagged a question I was going to ask. 😉 Just passed 250 days on waiting for my Ghost M for my 45 FNX Tactical.
@@AndyCigarsi bought one jan 2022 and also have a FNX 45. I Still dont have mine. Long story short. The dealer i used sold his place with the address and he had to transfer it out of his possession into another dealers possession. At the new dealer my form had a birthplace error and it wasn’t resolved for a couple months. Now its ready to submit and their access to the ATF site is down.
@@fee2lee sorry to hear. It took 8 months to get it. Nice to shoot, is trippy how it quiets 45 down to sound like an air rifle. I thought I’d want another one for rifles…but I do not find it worth the extra $200, hassle and waiting. Rather buy a new gun, ammo or some training. Good luck. 👍🏻
How would you compare this to your Odessa? I know they are two different bore diameters, but knowing what you know now would you still buy both, or rather have one over the other? Btw, I look forward to your Saturday posts hoping they will be about silencers. They are definitely an addiction!!
Hey man! First off, I’m glad you are enjoying the channel(not just saying that).
So like you mentioned, those are two very different cans. I would say the Odessa makes for a very nice 9mm only, dedicated can. I could see it as a good option for a “bedside gun” option when you run it at about half length and just want to take the edge off. Also if you wanted to to conceal the can or even carry it in a pocket then the Odessa would be a great option.
The Ghost is gonna sound better in general. And, given it’s size and mounting options, the Ghost will be suitable for quite a few more calibers than the Odessa.
To answer your question though, yes. I would still buy both. I’m also an addict, so it doesn’t take much for me to want another can. If I had to only have one then it’d be the Ghost. I’ll simply get more use out of the Ghost over the Odessa.
Thanks… this helps! I have been wanting a dedicated pistol can. So I have been waffling on the Odessa and possibly the CGS Mod9. Hopefully that video is in the works soon 😎
Glad to help man 👊🏻
I am working on reviewing the Mod9SK 😉
Yes!
😎🤙
Can I run a 10mm through it?
If you watch the video you’ll see me demo that 😉
So if you don't have a 45, but you do have suppressor height sights, would you still recommend the Ghost over the Wolfman or the Odessa? Also considering the Obsidians and CGS Mod9 FS for a FN509t. It sounds like both the Ghost and Mod9 use aluminum baffles on the front to help with balance, cost, etc.
I don’t have the Mod9 FS but I do have the SK and it sounds good for it’s size. The Wolfman is going to sound better than the Ghost in 9mm and depending on your suppressor height sights, you could still use them with the Wolfman. The Odessa is a good can if you want to take the edge off and how have any sight obstruction at all.
I had a hard time finding .578x28 piston for my FN FNX TAC 45 PISTOL finding one for my glock was easy to find
Ya those can be a little more obscure to find 🤔
Did you find one?
Was that a spammer wrench you used to take the booster assembly off? If so where did you get it from? Just got my 45M yesterday. Also bought the Griffin Cam-lok.
I got those wrenches with other cans that I’ve gotten from Dead Air. I believe you can also use a standard AR armorer wrench as well.
@@CalebDowning thank you. I looked on the DA site and saw 2 of the wrench’s but I’ll try the armorer wrench as well.
@Steeda04SVT Some armorer wrenches work and some don’t but it’s worth trying out what you have. Getting the actual DA wrenches is definitely nice and comes in handy quite often for me.
I liked how your video focused on fit and function and set up over how many decibels it takes off. More often than not, a suppressor is going to reduce the sound from your shots, but I really just need to know if I can run it on what I have or not. This video definitely helped my decision making process.
Awesome man, thanks sharing that. I don’t have a decibel reader and so I don’t even go over much of the “numbers”.
Glad you found the video helpful!! 😎👊🏻
Finally got mine! One last question...is it ok to use the Ghost M without the wipe? I have heard they get chewed up pretty quick and getting new ones is not that easy. Thanks
Nice dude!
You can definitely run it without the wipe. I only put the wipe in to play around or demo the can but I usually run it without a wipe.
@@CalebDowning thanks, man! Looking forward to using it! Cheers!
🍻
I am putting this on a Glock 19
What parts exactly do I need to buy so this runs properly?
Glocks are pretty easy to suppress. I’ve used inexpensive AIM Surplus threaded barrels with no problems. I have played with different recoil springs but in general the OEM spring has worked. You can go direct thread so you’ll need a 1/2x28 piston. If you want to step up that game then I’d go Griffin Armament Ez-Lok.
@@CalebDowning thanks for the quick response. Griffin it is!
@johnzehring2887 Ya Buddy! Glad to help 😎🤙
Can you put different end caps for different calibers? And if so would it make a difference in the sound
I don’t think the Ghost has that ability. You could always run it with a wipe 🤔 That would squeeze out the most sound reduction but your accuracy would suffer.
I've bought one and am awaiting approval. Main host is going to be a 9mm Scorpion. So I need to get a 1/2x28 piston to go in the included boost assembly? Is getting a 9mm end cap needed?
If you get the 1/2x28 piston then you’ll need a fixed barrel spacer if you run it on the Scorpion. If it was me I’d just get a Tri-lug. Much simpler to attach and take off. You would get some benefit from a 9mm front cap.
Thanks! What's the barrel spacer for? It get's too close to the handguard otherwise and won't screw on all the way? I have a DA Nomad with keymo for multiple AR's so having QD is great, I just know this one will be 90% on my Scorp. I did want to put it on some hand guns every now and then as well as getting a Vector soon so I figured direct thread would be best?
@@ied0135 direct thread is probably the cheapest and simplistic rout in that case. The fixed barrel spacer replaces the spring in your booster assembly. It allows the piston and booster assembly to be used as a direct thread.
Ah, I just looked the spacer up and get it now. Really appreciate the reply's man. I JUST talked to a DA rep at a LGS a few weeks ago to inquire what I needed and he didn't say anything about the piston or spacer so I'm really glad I watched your vid and asked. Learning the Nomad, muzzle devices for each host, and keymo was so much easier than this can lol, but I get why. It's this way to give you options for your wants/needs.
Hey buddy great video. Do they make cam lock for 300 blk out barrels? I am wanting to switch the can from 9mm to 300 blak out
Hey man, glad you liked the video 👍
I believe Griffin Armament advises against using the CamLok with rifle cartridges. You’d need to use a fixed barrel spacer anyway if you used your piston system for 300BLK. It’s probably be easier, safer and cheaper to just get the standard 3 lug mount.
@@CalebDowning thanks for replying my man👊
Do you think this will work on a Cmmg 9mm banshee?
I believe the Banshee is a fixed barrel, right 🤔 If it is then it’s gonna need to have some kind of solid mount and not a normal pistol booster. Either a fixed barrel spacer or a completely different mount(direct thread, KeyMicro, 3-lug…)
Been hearing some people talking about how some (if not all) Dead Air cans are made from "Chinese pot metal" and I'm not sure if that's just some dorks on the internet talking out their asses or not since I don't own any suppressors, I can't say. What's your take on it?
I had one suppressor show up that was slightly bent. It looked like it shifted when welded. DA took care of it pretty quickly. Other than that I haven’t had any problems with the make or function of any of their cans. I think there are some fiercely loyal folks out there when it comes to suppressor/firearm companies. That tends to Lear to exaggerations and and mud throwing.
I have a sandman-s that I’ve gotten cherry red on multiple occasions. If it had been made of inferior metal then it would have blown 🤷♂️
What do you use to lube up that end piece?
The Booster? I’ll use whatever lube I have on hand. If I’m out shooting then I’ll squirt some CLP on it, if I clean it and set it back up then I’ll generally use some high temp grease, lithium grease or something like that.
No 10mm?
20:24 😉
Thanks 🥰
Hey man how are you doing? You changed your set. I wish I could have a can. The only can you can have in Illinois is the van in the bathroom. They are always up your A$$. 🤣 Well have a great day and always Happy Safe Shooting 🇺🇸💪.
Hey man! I did change things up a little. Just trying to shake things up a bit.
Someday maybe IL will open their borders to scary metal tubes 😱
Ehh seems kinda niche to me.
It’s a pistol can and shouldn’t be used on rifle calibers. So it is niche in that regard 👍
