Suppressors HK SP5: GSL Phoenix or Dead Air Wolfman

[redhead522]

Hello everyone,

I walked into my gun shop ready to shoot sporting clays, noticed an HK SP5 behind the counter, and walked out after shooting a round of sporting clays and carrying my new HK SP5.

After lots of research on suppressors I've narrowed it down to a GSL Phoenix (which is basically a revamp of the popular Gemtech MK9K) and the Dead Air Wolfman.

GSL Phoenix pros:
40 db Sound reduction!
Integrated Tri lug attachment
Serviceable
Full auto rated

GSL Phoenix cons:
Heavy (18 ounces)
Long (8.75")
Not modular

Dead Air Wolfman pros:
Modular (full size and sub size)
Excellent sound reduction
Full auto rated

Dead Air Wolfman cons:
Not serviceable (my biggest concern)
Tri lug attachment sold separately
Concerns the mounts and modular connection might come loose

I'm leaning towards the Dead Air Wolfman just for the modular ability of full and sub sizes, but the inability to service it concerns me, and I'm curious if it ever works itself loose at the attachment and modular connection.

What would you get?

Thanks!

wolfmann of course, or omega 9K. I have 6 MP5s .. (on a SD, one a 10mm) and for the other 4 wolfmann and omega 9k are perfect

Of those choices: Wolfman, all day, everyday. Don't let the inability to remove baffles concern you, there is no reason to take them out. If it has issues, Dead Air will take care of it.

Another vote for Dead Air Wolfman. I have the predecessor, Wolf9SD. Its very quiet and very durable. I would not worry about the serviceability of it. It will last for a very very long time and any problems with it, deadair will take care of you.

I will also suggest the Surefire Ryder 9-MP5. I am still waiting on my stamp to take it home. But, I have been able to shoot one a bit at the range. It is very rock solid on a 3 lug mount and nice and quiet.
