For 2025, Silencer Central added the Banish 9K to its in-house line of suppressors, and this latest release promises to be the most revolutionary yet. Thanks to its 3D-printed, all-titanium design, the Banish 9K weighs only 2.7 ozs., making it one of the lightest suppressors on the market. It's also incredibly compact, too, measuring just 4.1" long and 1.3" wide. You can see the Banish 9K in action on the range in our SHOT Show Industry Day at the Range video above.

Due to its compact, lightweight design, the Banish 9K doesn't require the use of a Nielsen Device, also commonly referred to as a piston or muzzle booster, for semi-automatic handguns to cycle. The suppressor features eight internal baffles and cannot be disassembled by the end user. Mounting options include a direct-thread 1/2x28 TPI or 13.5x1 LH metric options. Its high-grade, titanium construction also means it's full-auto rated for both 9 mm Luger supersonic loads, as well as .300 Blackout subsonic loads.

The Silencer Central Banish 9K is available now and retails at a suggested MSRP of $699. As with every NFA-regulated product, ATF Form 4 approval is required, along with the payment of a $200 tax stamp, and Silencer Central has an easy process for ATF approval and suppressor transfers, too.
