Designed for hunting, this all-new 30-caliber suppressor is a game-changer for outdoor enthusiasts looking for top-tier performance in the field.

“We told the folks at Silencer Central that we wanted to help build a suppressor that was lightweight, short, user serviceable, quiet, and reduced recoil,” said Ryan ‘Cal’ Callaghan, Director of Conservation at MeatEater. “It seemed impossible, but from every test we’ve done, that team was able to walk a fine line to help us accomplish all of those things in a package dedicated for hunting rigs.”

The MeatEater by BANISH is built for performance and rated for cartridges up to .300 RUM. It features an anchor brake that reduces recoil by up to 40% in the open position and 30% when closed, while also delivering an additional 5 dB of sound reduction. Overall, the suppressor cuts average sound levels by 32 dB, ensuring a quieter and more comfortable shooting experience.

With a muzzle cap insert to accommodate various calibers, users can optimize the suppressor for their specific rifle setup. Constructed from lightweight titanium, the suppressor weighs just 10.3 ounces, measures 5.85 inches in length, and has a 1.73 inch diameter with an industry-standard hub mount.

“From the beginning, both Silencer Central and MeatEater had a shared vision for this suppressor,” said Brandon Maddox, CEO of Silencer Central. “It had to be lightweight, quiet, and reduce recoil – essential features for hunters. Our engineering team worked hand-in-hand with the MeatEater team on every aspect, from design to testing, and even down to the aesthetics, to ensure we delivered the best possible product. The result exceeded every expectation. I’m excited to take it into the field this season, and I know the MeatEater crew is just as eager to use it on their next hunt.”

The MeatEater by BANISH 30-caliber suppressor is available now with an MSRP of $1,299. To make a purchase or for more information visit Silencer Central’s website.

It isn’t just a quarter million square feet of manufacturing space and more than 600 jobs; it reinforces Arkansas’ place as the arsenal of America,” said Governor Sanders. “To Ron and all the team at SIG SAUER: thank you for believing in Arkansas and investing in our state. And to everyone who played a role in bringing this facility here: thank you for your hard work.”

The focus of the JAAC is advanced ammunition, strengthening the industrial manufacturing base for the U.S. Department of Defense. Through a strong cooperative effort, SIG SAUER and the U.S. Army realized this scalable manufacturing capability in just over 2 years.

“This facility exemplifies the significant investment being made to enhance capacity and capabilities to enable ammunition production at scale in direct support of our Warfighters,” said U.S. Army Joint Program Executive Officer for Armaments & Ammunition, Maj. Gen. John T. Reim. “It is amazing to see what the team has accomplished in two years with the introduction of the NGSW and the new 6.8mm round that ensures, when called upon, our Soldiers are equipped with the safest, most reliable, and lethal munitions, enabling them to decisively fight and win our Nation’s wars.”

AM General Focuses on Tactical Capabilities for AUSA 2024

Friday, October 11th, 2024

SOUTH BEND, Ind., October 11, 2024 – AM General, leader in military automotive systems and technology, will display an array of mobility capabilities that are addressing the complexities of the evolving battlefield at the Annual Meeting and Exposition of the Association of the U.S. Army (AUSA)

Oct. 14 – 16, 2024, Booth #1939, Hall B, at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. The Company will feature the next general Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV A2) and trailer, the HUMVEE 2-CT Hawkeye 105mm Mobile Howitzer, and the all-new MIMIC-V purpose-built truck.

“AUSA is an important event for the industrial base and gives us an opportunity to update our key customer, the US Military, on the latest developments to maintain readiness. And for AM General it comes at a time when we are preparing for production of the JLTV A2,” said Jim Cannon, AM General President and CEO. “We are extremely proud and excited to feature products that are actively supporting the Warfighter and that will continue to transform capabilities to support their mission.”

On display will be the new JLTV A2 general purpose 4-passenger vehicle, which features additional enhancements over the first-generation model. Key changes include an upgraded powertrain, improvements in noise reduction, and improved corrosion protection. The company will also display the JLTV-T Trailer which has a payload of up to 5,100 lbs. and has an 18.5-inch travel to make it a rugged compliment to the JLTV A2.

The HUMVEE 2-CT Hawkeye 105mm Mobile Howitzer will also be featured on the show floor. In Partnership with Mandus Group and utilizing the patented Soft Recoil Technology, the HUMVEE 2-CT Hawkeye can rapidly engage targets with both indirect and direct fires and move out to avoid counterfire strikes with the agility that the battle-tested HUMVEE platform is known for. The HUMVEE 2-CT Hawkeye is currently undergoing testing in the Eastern European theater as the company sees increasing demand for this mobile artillery system to counter near peer threats.

AM General is also debuting the first from-the-ground-up build of the MIMIC-V (Mission Integrated Maneuverable Interoperable Conformable Vehicle) prototype. The MIMIC-V is a platform that has been designed and engineered to serve the ultra-unique needs of our special operations Warfighters.

Formerly the AM General Chieftain, the MIMIC-V is the Company’s solution to tactical security. This high-performance and low-signature truck can operate in any environment for any tactical mission. As the name implies, MIMIC-V’s key differentiator is that it can reduce its signature by looking like a commercial vehicle.
