Got one of these to pair with a Kimber R7 Mako Tactical for the express purpose of becoming my house gun. Running it in the short config with Winchester Super Suppressed 147gr FMJ subsonic and got lots of jamming caused by failure to run the slide fully back. After that, I ran it with G9 Defense 126gr subsonic without cleaning the Mako or the piston and it ran flawlessly with zero malfunctions. Shooting in an indoor range in the short configuration , it was quiet enough to shoot comfortably with no ear plugs with the lower power G9 ammo without any after effects to my hearing. Just exactly what I was hoping for as a home defense platform.
You did the right thing changing up the ammo. Unfortunately there isn’t many ways to tune pistols to run suppressed. Additionally, 9mm ammo can be hit or miss. Once you find a good ammo stick to it. Sounds like a sweet home defense setup. Thanks for sharing.
@@BERGQUISTARMAMENT I wasn't looking for Hollywood quiet, I just thought it might be a good idea to be able to hear the questions the cops will inevitably want to ask me after words if I ever need to use it in a home defense incident! BTW, in TN it's legal to use a suppressed weapon for self defense.
I have a really heavy spring in my PDP and it worked perfectly with the Mojave. Of all the hosts I tried it on, the PDP was the only one that didn't have a malfunction, most likely because of that stiff spring.
I usually shoot many different guns in a range session. So I put all my gear on and leave it on until I am done shooting. If I go out to shoot with a couple mags I will just wear eye protection. So my ears can get the full experience of suppressed subsonic ammo.
