Suppressor info

3 lug on the barrel and the 3 lug mount on the can.

Just did this to my Evo with the carbine handguard and it worked perfectly.

This is the adapter I got:

I got the three lug from HK parts.

I wouldn't do the direct thread method with the carbine handguard, I had one of my suppressors walk off while I was shooting (no baffle strike thank goodness) so I'm going to 3 lug from now on.

Wanted to reply to this per my previous post and another thread.

I got my can paperwork back monday, brought my full length hand guard scorpion into the shop today to mount the omega 9k on it.
First, it fist exactly like it does in the vid on the first page per Mac's setup. I bought the direct thread adapter as well and everything fits perfectly, BUT with that said, its just for looks, its totally not practical to keep the can inside the hand guard because you cant really get a good bite on it to get it tight. Ive got a seat belt type strap wrench, little rubber channel locks, and some rubber hose and a pair of normal channel locks all to crank it down. Where I thought I had it tight a few times, a good wrap on it with some light rubber exam gloves I usually keep to work with, got it to spin off and come loose. So after a few more attempts ive gotten it pretty tight. Tight enough where it wont come off with my hands, but I can only imagine after a few shots it coming loose.

The answer to this issue is, which people have been awesome on this forum and informed me about on a different thread I posted, would be the HK tri lug setup, and just have it a quick attach and its tight.  I feel like keeping mine inside and having to shoot some and then cool, tighten it or make sure its tight, then shoot again, ill never really get that feeling of being able to shoot it consistently and securely . Which I think what I should have done to begin with is just to get the free float setup from HBI hand guard, and put the 6.84" flat guard on. Looks tits and I should have just done it this way, but I really loved the look of that scorpion that Mac had in his vid, but for ease of practicality and safety, a tri lug or hand guard would be better imo.

I appreciate the writeup. I ended up cancelling the order on handguard and just plan on going with the can in a direct thread mount. But I'm also going to use some form of non permanent loctite thread sealer to keep it from backing off on its own.  Not sure which one yet, but I don't want it to easily come off, but break loose when needed.

I honestly don't plan on shooting it suppressed much. It's straight up for the house in case I ever have to pull the trigger inside I don't want to be left hearing impaired for life. Since the Omega 9K is not user serivaceable I will limit the rounds I put through it.

I think you might find that shooting the Evo suppressed is more enjoyable than you think. The gun does very well, especially with sub sonic rounds. As for it not being user serviceable, that is a good point however if you have a 300 blackout, you could put a few full power rounds through it and it should be good to go just like any rifle can. Just a thought.

I've never had one before, could I put it in a supersonic cleaner or run bore cleaner through then clean out with a spray or would I risk rusting the inside out?

Centerfire suppressors do not generally need cleaning. Centerfire rounds are nowhere near as dirty firing as rim fire cartridges. I wouldn?t put too much thought into it.
