I didn't want to add confusion to the Banish 30 thread, but the listed specs on the new Banish Backcountry look pretty good.

I've been using a Q half nelson for hunting, and I really like it, but certainly wouldn't mind being even shorter and lighter. I've been wanting another light suppressor.
I've never used Silencer Central before either, but seems other guys have been pretty happy with them.

I’m not going to lie, $1k to save 6oz over my current can is pretty tempting.

 

[sacox31s]

I like the weight, size, 1.375 universal mount, and simplicity of the can.

 

[762 ULTRAMAGA]

After comparing my Banish 30 to my Nomad LT I'd steer you towards a Nomad Ti.
They're damn quiet, quite a bit more so than gen 2 tbacs.

SC called me within 2 hours of submitting a question on this can.

Since taking my order, I’ve been waiting 2 damn days for a call back. Literally have a direct line to the salesman that took my order. And then crickets when I leave them a VM post sale, and email. Not off to a great start.

I have been more than happy with silencer central. If there was another company that did the same thing as them, I’d happily try them out but silencer central is the only ones who do what they do.

That being said, it works for me because I live far away from any silencer dealer so using a shop, I’d have to spend like 700 dollars on plane tickets, rent a car, rent a hotel, eat at restaraunts. Silencer central may be a week or 2 slower but it saves me well over a thousand bucks to use them (it’s like buying another silencer). They ordered my ultra 7 and mask 22 for me with zero issues.

It is definetly annoying when you get the final message saying you are good to go and it still takes a week. Oh well. Worth the savings to me.

The Banish 30 thread has people that said silencer central was easy to work with.


MT_Wyatt seems to have a little issue though.
@MT_Wyatt keep us updated when you hear back.

Easy yes. Slow? Also yes. My EForm was approved 10/18 and they’ve yet to ship it

week or two? it took them 60 days to even submit to ATF on mine.

Final message to in-hand was 25 MORE days.

Sure it's easy, you don't have to leave the comfort of your home. But excuses, lies and feet-dragging don't cut it, for me....

Ha! That is all it is, a 'start'. You have MONTHS of the same garbage to look forward to..... Welcome to SC.

Besides a situation like Thin_ak, there is absolutely zero chance I would give SC any business.

Also I believe it’s a major grey area to ship suppressors. And when they use the return address of their place of business in your state, but ship direct from SD, it’s only a matter of time until they and/or a customer get in trouble.

The Backcountry would have to be in a league of its own to put up with SC.

 

[huntsman22]

SC ships to your in-state dealer, who then mails to you. They do not go directly from South Dakota to you, so not a problem....

Interesting feedback on the customer service.
I guess I had seen a few grumblings, but haven't paid much attention, and I didn't know issues were that common.

so as far as small-ish hunting suppressors
Hyperion K
Q Half Nelson
Nomad Ti
TBAC Dominus?

Anything else close to (at least the published specs) the banish backcountry?

 

[mt100gr.]

I ordered mine from SC a few months before the Efile system came to be. All-in mine took a bit over 16 months.

Pretty sure mine shipped direct from them in SD. The tracking number they generated never changed hands thru a dealer. And true to form, USPS left it on top of my mailbox at the end of the road! I think I checked the mail about 15 times that afternoon, tho, as I figured they'd be too "busy" to follow thru and actually deliver a package to my door....

But I do like my Banish 30 and until it was out for delivery, I didn't have to leave the house to complete the transaction.

They did ship directly from SD to my buddy who lives in a different state.

If you wanted to make a sizeable jump in size/weight, you can add tbac ultra 5 gen 2 to your list. I have one on my hunting set up and have really liked it. It is not as quiet as my omega but is closer than one would think. The length and weight make it pretty ideal for hunting. It won't be the best for range work but you already have a longer can for that.

Another one to add is the KGM R30K.

Mine was nowhere near 60 days. Sorry that happened to you.

Mine went somewhere in AK before going to me.

It’s not a grey area at all and nobody is getting in trouble for using silencer central. We get it, you don’t like them but let’s not start making up stupid stuff here.
