Where would a USP tactical in 9mm rank as a host? Cans are Osprey 9 and TiRant 9. Currently have a M&P9, G19, and P226 as host. Would it be quieter than the 3 of those?

No.Would it be quieter than the 3 of those?
The weight of the bolt and length of the barrel, combined with tight tolerances are what help keep noise down. Pistols, largely, have light weight bolts, short barrels, and relatively loose tolerances. Heck, you can see through most Glock frame and slides, as well as the M&P. All of that combine to make pistols, in general, fairly lousy hosts. Unless you're talking about a Remington XP-100 in .308 with subsonic loads.STOP CRUSHING MY DREAMS!

I can't speak to it in 9mm, but I had one in .45 and was as loud/quiet as my 1911 and Glock 21...at least to my ear. I never had it metered.No I get that but I always thought the USP was a relative quiet host
