A Premium Low-Back-Pressure 9mm Suppressor Coming in 2026

What Is the Milkman Suppressor?
Announced via Otter Creek Labs’ official Instagram on December 28, 2025, the Milkman measures a compact 6 inches in length and weighs just 8.8 ounces. It’s constructed using DMLS (Direct Metal Laser Sintering) from Grade 5 Titanium — the same premium material known for its strength-to-weight ratio in aerospace and high-end firearms applications.
Key highlights from the announcement:
- Purpose-built for 9mm PCC/SMG platforms
- Low back pressure design (critical for reduced gas blowback, cleaner operation, and better cycling in semi-auto or full-auto setups)
Positioned as the premium upgrade to the popular Lithium suppressor (much like the Infinity serves as the step-up from the Polonium-30 in their .30 caliber lineup)
This isn’t just another multi-caliber can — it’s engineered specifically for the 9mm subgun/PCC crowd who want minimal added length and weight while maintaining excellent sound suppression and gas management.
Why Low Back Pressure Matters for 9mm PCC and SMG Users
Traditional suppressors can increase back pressure, leading to:
- Excessive gas to the face
- Faster wear on components
- Reliability issues in tuned systems
The Milkman addresses this head-on with a dedicated low-back-pressure architecture. For competitors running MP5-style builds, AR-9s, Scorpions, or other roller-delayed or blowback 9mm platforms, this could mean noticeably cleaner, more comfortable shooting — especially during extended range sessions or suppressed full-auto fire.
Combined with titanium construction and additive manufacturing (DMLS), it delivers durability without the bulk of stainless or Inconel alternatives.
How the Milkman Fits into Otter Creek Labs’ Premium Line
Otter Creek Labs has built a reputation for thoughtful, high-quality suppressors that balance performance, weight, and price:
- Polonium-30 → solid entry-level .30 cal option
- Infinity → premium .30 cal upgrade
- Lithium → lightweight 9mm-focused can
- Milkman → premium low-back-pressure 9mm evolution
If you’ve been happy with the Lithium but want even better gas control and a more refined build, the Milkman appears positioned as that next-level choice.
