Soooo I've owned a .22 suppressor for many years and I enjoy it very much but it's a tool, not a hobby in and of itself for me. I just took possession of a .45 can and it has some quirks. I've only shot it on an older Sig P220 with a brand-new threaded barrel and with one brand of ammo.
Without the suppressor installed, the pistol functions flawlessly and flings the cases with authority. With the can, the action barely cycles enough to eject the spent case at my feet (or in my face). It frequently does not return to battery and the gun fires on the second strike.
Surely someone has seen this before? Obviously, I will try another brand of ammo, lube and break-in the barrel but I find this odd. Shouldn't there be more back-pressure with the can? It seems like there's less.
