So what's the first step after purchasing your suppressor? 😕

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. 🖨️

It's that easy! 👍

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. 🔄 Simply swap out the pistons and you can attach this suppressor to any multitude of pistols or pistol caliber carbines in your collection.

The BANISH 45 is a modular silencer specifically designed for handguns and pistol caliber carbines in calibers ranging from .45 ACP down to rimfire. 📝 Testing shows the BANISH 45 suppresses a 9mm pistol by 36 decibels – far more sound reduction than the competition. 🔇

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.
