2024 Guns & Ammo Suppressor of the Year Award: Silencer Central Banish Speed K
After evaluating the industry's new suppressors for 2024, Guns & Ammo's editorial staff and contributors awarded the Silencer Central Banish Speed K its Suppressor of the Year Award. The line of 4-inch 5.56mm suppressors include the Speed K made of 3D-printed Inconel and the Speed K Ti made of 3D-printed titanium. Due to 3D printing technology, Silencer Central engineers were able to optimize the flow of gasses, producing less than 6-percent blowback to the shooter. Presenting the award to Silencer Central President and CEO Brandon Maddox is Eric R. Poole, editor-in-chief of Guns & Ammo, at the 2025 NSSF SHOT Show in Las Vegas.
