H&K Mark 23 SOCOM 45 !!! (Pics)

Nothing smaller than .45 has enough recoil impulse to cycle with a boosterless can. Trust me, I've tried.

Unless the pistols design does not have the barrel moving.

Obviously. Like on an HK P7. People who put suppressors on them report an unpleasant amount of gas in the face.

I didn't find that personally. A can on a P7 really makes little difference to the operation of the gun. It does somewhat limit the amount of suppression possible as the gas system tends to bleed noise.

Great pic. When I said "people who put" perhaps I should have said "people on the Cult of the P7 who talk about putting" - that's where I got the info. I'll take your word as having more weight.

Had a chance to fire a few rounds through a brand new one of these this past weekend.

HUGE when compared to my M&P40, especially when quick shooting - transitioning steel, but it felt/shot real nice.
