Silencer Central and Banish Suppressors Founder and CEO Brandon Maddox, as well as engineer Lukas VanLaecken, join Guns & Ammo to discuss the Banish 9K, a 2.7-ounce 3D-printed titanium suppressor developed for 9mm pistols, subguns and carbines. Itâs lightweight and small. The suppressor measures just 4.1 inches, has a 1.3-inch diameter, and will direct-thread onto most 9mm pistols without the need for a booster or Neilsen Device. Even for being so small, users benefit from as much as 32 decibels (dB) in sound reduction. While discussing the Banish 9K, Maddox also provides listeners with an industry-insider perspective on the state of the suppressor industry.
This episode of Guns & Ammoâs âThe Buzzâ podcast is hosted by Editor-in-Chief Eric Poole and contributor Mark Fingar, who evaluated the Banish 9K for the May 2025 issue. -
