Backstory for those who are curious: Historically I have not cared what gr ammo I shoot, but I just got a 9mm suppressor and was informed that for the AR9 it is attached to, 147 gr 9MM would be ideal for sound quality.
Unfortunately I don’t have any 147 gr 9MM and worse yet, I have a job so I don’t have time camp out at the Bass Pro or Sportsman“s to get reasonably priced ammo before the resellers grab it all up. I am really curious to hear the difference in ammo weights through the suppressor.

I know it’s a dumb question, but I figure it can’t hurt to ask; is there anyone out there with some 147gr 9MM range ammo that they would sell me at a reasonable price?

Yes, you can absolutely hear the difference. 147 still isn't James Bond quiet, but it is a significant difference, especially downrange.

If you have trouble getting some, let me know. I make it.

Thanks so much for the responses guys - hopefully something will come up :)

I guess I should have mentioned people can PM me directly if they have anything to offer that way it prevents a flood of people seeking the same after hearing you might have some.

I have 2k rounds of Sig 147gr waiting to be shipped to me. I am willing to sell them for 74cpr only if they don't just decide to cancel my order for fun. Should know in a couple days.

I really appreciate the offer, but I am not yet desperate enough to try to get range FMJ rounds for the cost of premium SD rounds.
Between my desire to not pay gouging prices and lack of trade ammo it looks like this thread might’ve been what we all know it was most likely destined to be - just a dream.
Hopefully I will be able to get some so I can hear the difference before the attempt to confiscate all of our firearms "for our safety".
