Wilson Combat, renowned for its high-quality builds and modifications on pistols, shotguns, and rifles, is now branching out with the introduction of the Silent Bandit Suppressor. Known for its exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail, the company brings the same level of excellence to their suppressor, combining superior noise reduction, lightweight design, and rugged durability for a versatile shooting experience.
Wilson Combat’s Official Announcement
The Silent Bandit Suppressor by Wilson Combat lives up to its ‘All Bite, No Bark’ promise, delivering suppressed performance in a sleek, lightweight design. It cuts 31 dB of noise on average using an efficient gas management system that controls flow and lowers back pressure.
The Silent Bandit gets its name from Bill Wilson’s dog Bandit – a model of toughness, reliability, and readiness. We’ve captured that spirit to create a dependable companion you can count on every time you pull the trigger.
At its heart is a titanium baffle stack available in two configurations. The 5-baffle option features a 5.76-inch stack at 12.1 ounces, while the 6-baffle version offers a 6.41-inch stack at 13.3 ounces. Its refined 1 ¾-inch profile fits seamlessly with your firearm without adding unnecessary weight.
Key Features of the Silent Bandit Suppressor
• Durable Construction: The hub mount and end cap are made from H13 steel with a black nitride finish for maximum durability. The hub mount attaches using a 1-3/8-24 UN-2A thread, and the end cap uses a 1-3/8-24 OD thread for easy attachment and removal during cleaning and maintenance.
• Compatibility: The Silent Bandit is available in four popular chamberings: 5.56mm, 6.8mm, 7.62mm, and 9mm. Its hub mount is also compatible with other firearm systems, offering fast disassembly and a flexible configuration for various setups. The integration with Wilson Combat’s QUELL K-Mount Interface further enhances compatibility with existing suppressor systems.
• Versatility: Silent Bandit is equipped with the industry-standard 1 3/8″ x 24 HUB Mount, making it easy to move the suppressor between different firearm hosts. This standardized system allows you to choose from a variety of suppressor accessories, giving you more flexibility than proprietary systems that limit your options.
• High-Performance Coating: For added durability, the Silent Bandit is coated with a high-temperature resistant version of Wilson Combat’s ARMOR-TUFF® Protective Finish. This non-reflective tactical surface offers advanced corrosion protection and abrasion resistance, ensuring the suppressor performs in the most demanding conditions.
• Minimal POI Shift and Baffle Strike Prevention: The design minimizes point-of-impact (POI) shift, ensuring accuracy with each shot. Additionally, the Silent Bandit reduces the risk of baffle strikes, even with magnum calibers.
