So what's the first step after purchasing your suppressor? πŸ˜• Well, we make the process even easier by mailing a fingerprinting kit directly to your front door. This kit includes a standard fingerprint form, a fingerprinting 101 guide that illustrates how to fill out your form, a Silencer Central ink pad, and prepaid postage for you to ship your kit back to Silencer Central HQ to be processed. πŸ–¨οΈ It's that easy! πŸ‘ * * * #pewpew#silencercentral#gunsofinstagram#hunting#huntsuppressed#silencemadesimple#silencedelivered#banishsuppressors#2a#suppressors#suppressor#silencer#silencers

We've got the VP9/ BANISH 45 Suppressor out at the range today. 😎 The unique design of the BANISH 45 makes it the one suppressor to fit any pistol caliber gun. πŸ”„ Simply swap out the pistons and you can attach this suppressor to any multitude of pistols or pistol caliber carbines in your collection. * * * #pewpew#silencercentral#gunsofinstagram#hunting#huntsuppressed#silencemadesimple#silencedelivered#banish45#banishsuppressors#2a#hunt#suppressor#suppressors#silencers#silencer

The BANISH 45 is a modular silencer specifically designed for handguns and pistol caliber carbines in calibers ranging from .45 ACP down to rimfire. πŸ“ Testing shows the BANISH 45 suppresses a 9mm pistol by 36 decibels – far more sound reduction than the competition. πŸ”‡ * * * #pewpew#silencercentral#gunsofinstagram#hunting#huntsuppressed#silencemadesimple#silencedelivered#banish45#banishsuppressors#2a#hunt#suppressor#suppressors#silencers#silencer

The smile says it all 😁 Made of titanium for the ultimate combination of durability and weight reduction, the BANISH 45 is the lightest in its class at a mere 9.6 oz. in the short configuration of 6.7”. You can also run it in the long configuration of 8.6” and still barely notice it with a total weight of 11 oz. * * * #pewpew#silencercentral#gunsofinstagram#hunting#huntsuppressed#silencemadesimple#silencedelivered#banish45#banishsuppressors#2a#hunt#suppressor#suppressors#silencers#silencer
