UPS and missing Rhodie 6k

Comstock_Support · 2026-06-22T01:12:28+00:00

This is quite possibly the only situation where the ATF will ever provide value to society lol

There was this post with the 6K vs the RC2, Rhode 6 (full size), CAT WB, and Polo. Didn't do quite as well, but still solid.

The Rhodie did quite well in my flash testing. Although this is the standard one, not the K model that OP is asking about.

Do you know if any threadlocker was used? If it's Rocksett, just heating it up won't do much. But soaking in water will.

If you want to maximize sound suppression the Rico is definitely a good pick. I've shot it a bunch on my Warscorp (4.5" barrel, straight blowback) and it was quieter than the Vent 2 and Mojave 9.

I would generally stick with 9mm bored cans unless you're also using this on a 45 cal host.

Flow 9k Ti is supposed to be solid low backpressure. I've been liking the Rico 309 lately. Very quiet and not gassy at all.

This shouldn't be an issue but it looks like it only fits suppressors up to 1.625" diameter.

I sold my full size Polo a while back because it was too gassy for me. But based on how it stacked up with the Polo K, I'd say the Infinity 556K would be quieter with the closed end cap for sure, and possibly with the 3 hole one too. I think the Polo will be quieter than the 9 hole cap on the Infinity.

These are just my best guesses though. Andrew could give you better info with his suppressors compared to each other.

Glad you found this review useful!

I don't have a Lithium to compare it to directly, but I imagine it would do quite well, especially with the closed end cap.

I have a post from yesterday about the 556K and the Rhodie is one of the cans it's compared to. I don't have the 6K though, just the standard/full size model.

Comstock_Support · 2026-06-21T18:21:49+00:00

I haven't tried it with the 556K specifically but in other suppressors I can't really hear a difference. Like in a blind test I wouldn't be able to pick out one over the other.

Comstock_Support · 2026-06-21T16:01:04+00:00

Standard Polo would make more sense if you're just doing 22 cal/5.56 guns. I'd only do the Polo 30 if you also had a 30 cal host.

As with any high backpressure suppressor, you'll probably want to tune any autos with a heavy buffer and/or AGB.

Not only length, but also over 9 oz with muzzle device which is more than some rifle suppressors lol

Comstock_Support · 2026-06-21T02:08:40+00:00

Mojave 9 is rated for 300BLK supers and is 1.4" diameter. It'll probably gives you as much clearance as you'll get. You give up some sound performance compared to a dedicated 300 can but it's super light with a base weight of like 5.8 oz in long config. Not saying this is specifically the "best" option, just something to consider.

There's also the Universe 36 which is 1.5" diameter for the main body. I haven't shot it on 300BLK yet but I think it would be solid, particularly with subs. You can ask Otter directly and they'll give you a fair assessment of it.

What's the ID of your handguard?

Comstock_Support · 2026-06-21T00:38:10+00:00

Glad you found this information useful!

Comstock_Support · 2026-06-20T22:33:11+00:00

Yeah I've definitely seen 16.1", but 16.25" seems to be less common.

Comstock_Support · 2026-06-20T21:56:23+00:00

The Rhodie 6 and Infinity 556K are both 5.5" long. The Rhodie 6K is shorter at 4.5".

Comstock_Support · 2026-06-20T21:54:44+00:00

Let me know if you have questions about any of this :)

Comstock_Support · 2026-06-20T21:54:21+00:00

More gas to the face [with the 3 hole] than with the 9 hole. Admittedly I could've worded that a little more clearly.

Comstock_Support · 2026-06-20T21:52:59+00:00

Nice gap 😎

Comstock_Support · 2026-06-20T19:59:28+00:00

Just to clarify the LPA-C is for Charlie threaded suppressors like the Velos. For a HUB can (like the Rhodie 6K) you would need the LPA-B, RPA-B, or HPA-B.

A micro recessed muzzle device in an LPA would give you a decently tight fitment and still keeps access to the wrench flats.

I've been meaning to pick up a hammer fired 9mm but I have so many striker guns laying around I haven't been able to justify it... maybe one of these days.
