“suppressor”

Suppressors have been a hot topic in the industry of late—and something that NRA-ILA has been keeping an eye on for hunters, too. Among the hurdles they face though, is a general unfamiliarity from much of the hunting and shooting community. In hopes of turning that tide, the American Suppressor Association hosted a suppressor shoot during the NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits outside Nashville, Tenn. last week. American Rifleman's Brian Sheetz had the opportunity to discuss the issue with Association President Knox Williams. Relive their discussion—and learn a few things—with the video embedded here.

The new ultra-lightweight .30-caliber Banish Backcountry is a 100 percent titanium, fully welded, fixed-length suppressor that measures 5.5 inches in length and weighs just 7.8 ounces.

The Banish 46 is a modular suppressor designed for use with a wide assortment of rifle and pistol calibers, and testing has shown that it offers best-in-class noise reduction—more than 34 decibels in its long configuration.

Here’s why you should start the process of purchasing a suppressor now.

If you’re tired of seeing “not available” or “backordered” when shopping for ammunition or guns, why not shift focus and shop for something as a gun owner you just might be able to order with confidence today? That would be a suppressor. Many hunters recognize it as the next step in firearm ownership. Silencer Central makes shopping for, applying for and owning one simple.

SilencerCo has debuted a shotgun suppressor, the Salvo 12. The Salvo 12 is made to suppress a 12-gauge shotgun firing 23/4-inch or 3-inch slugs or wadded shot.

Advanced Armament Corporation, known as “The Silent Authority” and a player in firearm sound suppression since 1994, has just announced a major organizational relaunch and restructure of this trusted suppressor brand. This brand initiative represents a fresh, new chapter for the organization, as well as for the advancement of firearm suppressor technology, service, and innovation in the military, law enforcement, and civilian markets.

The new Hybrid 46M is a light, compact, modular centerfire suppressor with the versatility to use on a variety of calibers on both pistols and rifles.
