    Thank you every one for the help. What I mean with "permanent attach" is that I'm not looking for a "very easy" or "super fast" remove or
    Install. I said this because in my research i found too many products that the marketing is "super easy and fast" removal or install and for me the most important think is "the most silence possible" Im not looking for something fancy or extra mega good materials, Im looking for something simple but that trap the maximum sound possible because I saw some videos on YouTube that the sound of an AR with suppresor is like the same sound of a 9mm. Is my first time with this and I don't want to be frustrated when my AR sound a liiitle bit less after spend some hundreds.

    The model that I said is a model that have good reviews online and if I remember good stop 28db of sound

    .223/5.56 isn't going to be super quiet anyway. Projectile is moving faster than sound, so it will create a sonic crack.

    With the suppressor on an AR, not only will you have the "crack" of the bullet breaking the sound barrier, but you'll also have some "bang" as the action on the AR begins to cycle before the bullet exits the barrel. It's amazing how much quieter a bolt action rifle is when compared to an AR, when using the same suppressor.

    I've really noticed this as well. I'm not sure if you could tell the difference if you were 100 yards away, but from behind the gun. BIG difference.

    Maybe in a AR-9mm works better? I have a 9mm AR that I'm thinking to sale it but now maybe if I install a suppressor works like my MP5 dream, haha, I know is not the same but is a suppressed 9mm rifle that I can use for home defense or simple shoot without Ear plugs :-)

    Anything sub-sonic will do better. For the cost of a barrel, you can convert your 5.56 AR to 300 AAC Blackout and with subsonic rounds avoid the crack, but you can also shoot supersonic when you don't care.

    Even better, get something in a bolt or single-shot that can shoot sub-sonic and that would be the quietest.

    I'm probably about 2 months away from my Sparrow (22LR) and 7 months away from my Mystic (9mm/.357 Magnum/300 Blackout), if you're interested in getting together sometime after one or both come in, PM me.

    Another thing to consider with a thread on only can is it losing up. Depending on thread quality of the host and can both it may work lose as you are using it at the range. With a QD can you rocksett the muzzle device on so the likely hood of the can working lose is slim. As far a db ratings go, they are all very close for 5.56. Different hosts will have different numbers. Hearing them is person is the best. Different tones may seem quieter than a meter will tell you. Make sure to factor in the actual mount with a QD can as well. Some companies include the mount and others don't. I opted to go with a YHM ti QD 5.56 can after taking all this info into consideration. Good luck
