How do you plan to carry it?
Now days I travel with an AR pistol in 556 but still haven't found the backpack I want. I often use a tennis racket bag. If I have to get out the SBR/pistol I won't care about anyone knowing I have it at that point.
My vote is PCC in 9mm. I think a 9mm, especially suppressed, would be a great asset in getting you where you need to go without attracting as much attention if it needs to go bang.
^^^^THIS^^^^ with high quality +P+ self defense ammo.
If the overall length of the 9mm PCC and AR in 5.56 are the same length, why wouldn't you choose the rifle round?
I have a Midwest Industries 11.5 AR with law tactical folding pistol brace. It will fit in a hiking backpack, duffel bag, etc.
I'm not sure why there has been a big push lately for pistol caliber carbines, especially with the pistol brace and folding stock innovations as of lately. There is simply no comparison for the lethality of a pistol round vs a rifle round.

You'd be surprised what a Wilson advantage tennis bag will hold.
All I can say is ‘quiet confidence’. I know I can make the 9 do work, and do it quietly and reliably. I run a 10.5” rifle at work and it is so very blasty that it is unpleasant at best. I feel like that wouldn’t be an issue with the 9 and it would keep me as close to the gray man as I can get should it need to be used.
VUPD how long does it take for the paper work to go through and an approval to get a suppressor? I was told it's around a 2 year waiting period now days.
