When it comes to the world of firearms, few things bring as much joy to enthusiasts as the perfect combination of a reliable firearm and an effective suppressor. In my journey through the vast array of available options, one pairing has stood out as a true gem in my collection - the B&T GHM9k with the Dead Air Wolfman suppressor. In this post, I'll share my experiences with this dynamic duo, exploring its specifications, performance with various ammunitions, and the sheer pleasure it brings both on the range and in a home defense setup.
Specifications:
The B&T GHM9k Gen 2 is a compact and versatile 9mm submachine gun designed for a variety of applications. Featuring a lightweight design and a folding stock, it is a favorite among those who value portability without sacrificing performance. The GHM9k boasts an ambidextrous charging handle, a Picatinny rail for accessories, and a user-friendly design that allows for easy customization.
Paired with the GHM9k is the Dead Air Wolfman suppressor. Renowned for its adaptability, the Wolfman can be configured in both long and short setups, providing users with options based on their preferences. The multi-caliber design of the suppressor opens up possibilities beyond 9mm, allowing for exploration into other calibers.
Performance:
Having tested the GHM9k with various ammunitions, including 115 grain, 124 grain, and 147 grain 9mm, I can confidently say that each grain weight offers a unique shooting experience. However, it's with the 147 grain ammunition, coupled with the Dead Air Wolfman and cap wipes, that the setup truly shines. The near-silent operation of this combination is perfect for those seeking a discreet shooting experience.
The ability to replace the trigger pack with nearly any AR-style trigger adds an extra layer of customization, allowing users to fine-tune the firearm to their liking. My GHM9k cycles flawlessly, delivering a satisfying shooting experience that never fails to bring smiles to the faces of those who try it.
The plastic mags have held up well so far, but the anticipation of potential malfunctions lingers. Nevertheless, the overall reliability of the GHM9k paired with the Dead Air Wolfman is a testament to the quality of these components.
Versatility and Future Explorations:
One of the standout features of the Dead Air Wolfman is its multi-caliber capability. While I've exclusively used 9mm so far, the suppressor's potential for other calibers opens up exciting possibilities for future explorations. This adaptability ensures that the GHM9k and Wolfman combo will remain a versatile and dynamic part of my collection.
Future Plans:
My GHM9k is poised for further enhancement with the addition of a light (whether that be a Clouddefense, Modlite, Surfire is TBD) transforming it into a dedicated home defense firearm. The joy I derive from shooting this setup is not confined to the range; it excels in low-light conditions, especially when paired with NVGs.
Conclusion:
In the realm of firearms, finding the perfect combination of form, function, and enjoyment is a rare delight. The B&T GHM9k paired with the Dead Air Wolfman suppressor is precisely that - a combination that brings immense pleasure, whether used for recreational shooting or home defense. As I continue to explore the capabilities of this dynamic duo, it has undoubtedly secured its place as one of my most cherished firearms in my collection.
