Sorry for the noob question. But soon I may be joining the suppressor wagon. I know there are a few members here that own the Beretta 92 suppressed. And was just curious if anyone owned a Taurus PT92 suppressed? I have a PT92 I'm planning on using for as a platform.
Other than cost savings, Is there any advantage to having the existing barrel threaded vs. one already done by LoneWolf, EFK, etc.....? Its like $90 vs. $200+. Are the Beretta barrels fully interchangeable with the Taurus? Mine is a pre-decocker model. If that matters.
Also, is a booster necessary for these guns, Beretta/Taurus, to fully cycle? Does the gun determine if a booster is necessary or does the suppressor determine it? I know if it fails, it essentially turns your gun into a single shot, and can be manually cycled. At least according to LRP. They say their 9mm can, K baffle without a booster is $250, and with one is $400
But then HughesPrecision tells me their platform, using a X baffle cycles perfectly fine without a booster on a Beretta 92 with a Brownells threaded barrel.
