This is what all the excitement is about for suppressed pistol shooting
Crafted with lightweight titanium, the Fly 9 weighs a mere 8.0 ounces in its long configuration, or you can switch down to its short configuration at only 4.4 inches which increases its overall maneuverability.
The FLY 9 was developed with the same philosophy as the ULTRA series-- make a high-performance suppressor as light and compact as possible. The result is impressive, but requires some in depth discussion to really understand.
The FLY 9 is configurable in two lengths: Long and Short. The "Long" length is shorter than other modular suppressor"Long" configuration, but just as quiet (and often quieter) than the best in this class. The Long configuration is lighter by at least 20%, in many cases 35% or even 50%, than other full-size 9mm suppressors. It weighs only 7.9 ounces in Long configuration, and that includes the booster, piston, and spring. The Fly9 "Long" configuration at 7.0 inches is the same length or shorter than many others' "Short" setups, but quieter.
In its "Short" configuration, it's simply shorter and lighter than anything else out there. Including the piston, it's at 4.4", which will typically add about 4.0" to the OAL of the pistol. It weighs only 5.5 ounces, and that includes a 17-4 steel piston (1/2-28 for weight reference). This is truly a "handy" length, and with "low-blast-subsonic" ammo such as "HUSH" or "STEALTH", the muzzle and ear dB levels are under 140 dB!
To put it a different way, do you hate that 9mm cans almost always sound louder than you want them to? And that they're huge? This one will change your mind. At its "full size", it's only 7" long and adds about 6.6" to your OAL. In Short Mode, it's tiny.
The FLY 9 is rated for .300 Blackout SUPERSONIC ammunition from 8-inch and longer barrels, and .300 Blackout SUBSONIC ammunition from 5.5-inch barrels and longer. The FLY 9 is also rated for 350 LEGEND from 16" barrels and longer.
The FLY 9 is strong. Our test regimen was three 32-round Glock magazines fired from a select-fire subgun: the first two mags bursts, and the last mag full auto. We torture tested this for 30 cycles and the suppressor was perfect afterwards. After some consultation, we believe this exceeds all PCC/Subgun loadouts.
The FLY 9 ships with a 1/2-28 piston and a fixed barrel spacer (spring replacement). For high temperature durability, we are using specially-made Inconel springs in the booster. It is compatible with the Rugged/Griffin/SilencerCo/TBAC standard pistons.
Note: Early Gen 2 suppressors were subject to a recall, and those which were, will contain TBAC factory certification that it is free of defect.
Note: This model is black. Also pictured are FDE suppressors. More pics will be available and updated later.

THIS IS A SERIALIZED ITEM. It must ship to a Federal Firearms License holder. No civilian exceptions.
Buying and shipping through Charlie’s is easy, but there is some information you need to know. Only a federally licensed firearms dealer may receive a firearm or federally regulated serialized item (like a receiver or suppressor). We cannot ship these items directly to you. Please follow these steps to process your transaction:
1) Check your state laws to make sure the federally regulated item you want to purchase is legal in your state. Your FFL dealer should be able to give you all of the necessary information regarding your state specific laws. But, if we ship to your FFL, and there is a legal issue, we cannot accept a return. So please make sure that you know and follow your local and state laws.
2) A quick google search will show you what Federal Firearms Licensed (FFL) dealers are in your area. When you are ready to purchase, contact the FFL dealer you would like to use and get their shipping address. During the check-out, put YOUR address in the “billing” section and the FFL DEALER’S address in the “shipping” section. If you don’t know your FFLs address, that’s okay. You can send the information later.
3) After check out, make sure to contact your FFL dealer to ensure they will receive your shipment for you (most do this for a small fee, but you should always double check).
4) Have your dealer send us a copy of their FFL to FFL@CharliesCustomClones.com. Charlie’s does not reach to your FFL (MAKE THEM EARN THEIR FEE!!!)
5) Be patient! In order to ensure we remain compliant with all federal laws, our compliance department is kept separate from our sales and operations team. Please allow a few days for our compliance officer to verify all of your dealer’s documents and ensure all federal laws are being observed. You should hear from our compliance department within 3-4 business days. If not, feel free to reach out for a status update.
That’s it! We try to make this process as simple as possible for our customers, but if you are unfamiliar the process or have any other questions, please visit our How to Buy a Suppressor page for more details.
