Whether you call it a silencer or a suppressor (both are correct), the point is to be quiet ... unless, of course, it's to spread the news about which Silencer Central "can" is most loved by law enforcement. After extensive field testing, the members of the National Tactical Officers Association (NTOA) have honored the Banish Speed K their coveted Gold endorsement.
Silencers aren't just about noise levels; they're about safety. Regular NRA Family readers know that hearing protection is one of the keystones of gun safety ... and they also know that earmuffs and plugs can't completely eliminate the decibels that can (and will) cause hearing damage later in life.
The award-winning, high-performance Banish Speed K is a .223/5.56 suppressor that uses Banish Controlled Flow Technology, balancing low back pressure to reduce gas blowback in the shooter's face and sound reduction. It is crafted using premium Inconel 718, a material known for its durability and heat resistance. This compact, lightweight suppressor has a diameter of 2 inches, a length of 4 inches, and weighs just 14.1 ounces, striking the perfect balance between size and effectiveness. The Speed K is designed for longevity and reliability, key elements in tactical equipment.
The NTOA has a membership of over 40,000 professionals and is dedicated to enhancing the performance and professional status of law enforcement personnel. A credible and proven training resource, the association serves as a forum for the development of tactics and information exchange. The Gold endorsement, reserved for the top-performing products, of the BANISH Speed K is a testament to its exceptional features and potential to revolutionize the shooting and law enforcement community.
"The members of NTOA understand the importance of reliable and effective equipment in the field, and Silencer Central is honored to receive its endorsement of our new Speed K suppressor,” said Brandon Maddox, CEO of Silencer Central. "The Banish Speed K has been racking up awards and it shows how committed we are to providing innovative solutions that enhance the shooting experience. We are proud to contribute to the professional development of law enforcement personnel."
