Thread: Best 9mm 3-lug can? Thoughts?

So what are your thoughts on best 9mm 3-lug can. SWR Trident 9 and Gem-tech Multi-mount are current leaders but willing to hear other thoughts.

Any experience with either or both?

Thanks,
Steven

I own a Trident 9 and love it.
No exp. with the Gemtech.

I have a fixed mount and a Nielsen device for mine.
Light and it sounds like a pneumatic staple gun with 147 gr subs.

I think it would be hard to go wrong with either.

Trident is a good can. A steady diet of winchester white box ammo, isn't healthy for it though. Baffles don't like it, atleast while running the LID.



If I were looking to buy another 9mm can. I would take a long hard look at the Liberty Mystic. Yes you may get a bit of sticker shock from it. But the multi-purpose utility aspects of it are worth it IMHO. It will save you money in the long run. Unless you already own dedicated cans for the calibers it will cover,,,

It will accept the Gemtech 3-lug mount as well,,,

I have an AAC Evo 9mm can. I have all three attachments to work on my Glock 17 (floating barrel), Mac mini (fixed barrel) and my CA89k (3 lug). Now it takes a few minutes to switch it but it works great. Small and light also.

How about the 9mm SMG can from TROS? I like the idea of buying local but don't know anyone who has first hand experiance with one? Do you? Thoughts? Here is a link if you have no clue what i am talking about.

At 595 with the 3-lug mounts sounds like a pretty good value.

Thanks,

I am not usually a fan of one word answers but that is what I have this time.

Trident 9

I dont have a 3 lug mount but I have 2 different pitch thread mount and an LCD. I have used it more on my .300 Whisper AR then I have on a pistol.
