I was thinking the Rugged Obsidian 45. Should I consider other alternatives?

The Rugged Obsidian should do the trick. I would recommend getting a dedicated PCC can since changing boosters/fixed mounts suck during a range session, especially when the can is hot.
I got a Quietbore Form 1 kit with a tri-lug for my PCCs to supplement my Obsidian 45 for the pistols.

Thanks - and also read this thread more carefully which is full of great info:

Real talk: a straight blowback 9mm PCC is the easiest host in the world and pretty much any reputable can is going to work good enough.
Almost anything .45 cal would work as long as it:
A.) has an adapter that allows it to stay attached to your PCC (taper mount, trilug, direct thread with wrench flats for torquing to spec, etc).
B.) is rated for your intended volume of fire.
C.) for the love of all that is holy, don’t be cheap and try to mount your suppressor on your PCC with your booster/Neilson device UNLESS you have a fixed barrel spacer installed.
Rugged is fine, Dead Air is fine, Griffin Armament is fine, they will all pretty much be fine. Go with whichever brand makes you happy and has the components you need with regular availability.

I didnt think there was any risk here and had to look it up. Apparently you risk baffle strikes if the barrel interferes with the booster travel. Fun!
Can ordered.
Heck yeah, second best time to plant a tree is today.
So the time it takes to get the can approved allows me to accumulate the parts required to build a 45 ACP PCC using a CMMG radial delayed blowback system 
Might even run it on an existing SBR if I can get it to be > 29"
EDIT - or 10mm

While it's getting approved you should throw more cans in the pile. You might get lucky and get a batch approval.
