Got an SBR'd PS90 waiting for me stateside. the barrel is threaded and it has a standard M16A2 flash suppressor on the end.
I have funds earmarked for a suppressor.
Now correct me if I am wrong, but a suppressor designed for 5.56mm ammo- which is IIRC a .224" bullet will work just fine on my PS90, right?

Any personal experience or advice appreciated.

Yep.

Yes, any .223 can will work fine but they're really a lot more than you need for the 5.7x28 cartridge.

Is there a steep yearly permit cost on suppressors

Mark, do you make a suppressor for the PS90? Good to see you here.

There are no yearly costs, just a one-time $200 tax stamp for each suppressor you own. Suppressors are not legal in all states. There is a ton of info

Just a FYI, if your planning to ask around regarding what brand suppressor is best, ar15.com is slanted towards Ops Inc and Gemtech, and silencertests is slanted towards AAC....

Gemtech used to make a suppressor exclusively for the PS90. They have since discontinued that model and now recommend purchasing the G5 for use on the PS90. The G5 is designed for the 5.56 caliber.

just got my G5, and i love it. works great on both my SBR PS90, and my AR15.

Thanks, Fargo. I am in final testing on a can that can be used on BOTH the PS90 SBR and 5.7 pistol with the Jarvis barrel. It should be available soon. I am VERY pleased with its performance. I have also done several PS90 SBR conversions with M10x1 adapters so the customers can use their Gemtech 5.7 pistol cans. They are all quite pleased with the them.

Very interesting Mark, could you post a picture of a PS90 with the Gemtech 5.7 pistol can attached? I'd appreciate it!

I am sitting on the fence right now on what to do with my registered SBR. No work has been done to it yet. Nothing has been ordered.

I don't have a pic of the Gemtech can on a gun as I don't own one. If you look at my web site there's a pic of a PS90 SBR with one of my prototype cans on it that's pretty similar.

Mark-

i left you a message a few days ago. i want to send my PS90 to you for a SBR conversion and supressor fitting. what kind of turn around times are you experiencing?

 

[Mark McWillis]

BD,

I think I spoke to you yesterday about that project, yes?

 

[Bonedust]
