We check out Wilson Combat’s new all-titanium suppressor called the Silent Bandit, available in four caliber options.
Wilson Combat has just expanded its suppressor line with the Silent Bandit, an all-titanium can that will be available in four different calibers. The new model is named after Bill Wilson’s dog, Bandit, as the company says both are exemplars of toughness, reliability and readiness.
Wilson Combat says that the Silent Bandit provides an average noise reduction of 31 dB, all in a sleek, lightweight design with low backpressure. Offered in 5.56mm, 6.8mm, 7.62mm and 9mm, all versions are available in either 5- or 6-baffle configurations. All baffle stacks are titanium, but the 5-baffle version is obviously a bit shorter and lighter in exchange for slightly less noise reduction. Regardless, all Silent Bandit variants have a 1.75-inch outer diameter.
As for mounting, Silent Bandit suppressors feature steel HUB mounts that attach via 1-3/8-24 UN-2A threads. The endcap is also steel and attaches via 1-3/8-24 OD threads. This also means that the can is easily user-serviceable. The QUELL K-Mount Interface also ensures that the cans will be compatible with existing Wilson Combat QUELL suppressors. Finally, all the titanum bits are coated in ARMOR-TUFF® Protective Finish, a heat-resistant material that will protect against corrosion and abrasion. The steel parts have a black nitride finish. MSRP starts at $1,119.95.
You can test the Silent Bandit yourself at CANCON Arizona! April 10-12, 2025 at the Ben Avery Shooting Facility outside Phoenix, Arizona. Wilson Combat will have all of their suppressors, including the Silent Bandit, on the line for the public to shoot. Tickets to CANCON are on sale now!
