SilencerCo’s new Spring clothing line was designed to promote the new millennial shift and consumer in the firearms industry. Through this new line, SilencerCo is pairing Marvel characters and other iconic images with their #FightTheNoise campaign, as well as placing special focus on their upcoming Maxim 9 integrally-suppressed 9mm pistol.
Below is a quote from SilencerCo CEO Josh Waldron regarding the direction they’re taking with their new lifestyle line:
“SilencerCo is able to reach the younger millennial audience because that’s actually a large portion of the people who make up our company. We can understand and market to that group because we are that group. My advice to companies looking to reach a younger demographic would be to consider hiring professionals from that particular demographic to run your marketing division; that way, you produce content that speaks to your desired market and really hits the mark.”
– Josh Waldron, CEO
WEST VALLEY CITY, Utah – April 1, 2016 – Iowa has become the 42nd state to legalize suppressors. House File 2279, a bill introduced by Rep. Matt Windschitl and Rep. Terry Baxter, recently passed the Iowa Senate Judiciary Committee on March 2, 2016 by a wide margin of 11-2. The bill moved through the Iowa Senate without issue, and has now been signed by Governor Terry Branstad.
After three years of efforts by the American Suppressor Association, the National Rifle Association, and the Iowa Firearms Coalition to educate lawmakers on the benefits and realities of suppressors, HF 2279 was met with positive response.
This victory in Iowa is bringing hope to the eight other states where suppressors are still illegal for civilians to own. As part of their “No State Left Behind” campaign, the American Suppressor Association will now turn its attention to those states, including California, Illinois, Massachusetts, and New York.
“SilencerCo has been a strong supporter of the American Suppressor Association since its inception. We’re proud of the hard work they have put behind HF 2279 along with the help of the NRA and the Iowa Firearms Coalition. Because of the determination and educational push by these groups, Iowans can now enjoy the same rights as are held by law-abiding citizens in 41 other states,” says Joshua Waldron, CEO of SilencerCo.
SilencerCo is also working to remove suppressors from the list of NFA items all together through the introduction of the Hearing Protection Act. To learn more and add your voice to the cause, visit www.fightthenoise.org/take-action.

SilencerCo’s initial Maxim 9 prototype was built on the Smith & Wesson M&P frame, because it’s what they had lying around. This latest example, shown at SHOT Show, now has a lot more in common with a GLOCK.
The 3D printed frame accepts GLOCK magazines as well as sights. While the slide catch/stop/release is ambidextrous, SilencerCo plans to make the mag release ambi as well. Adding to the changes, the Maxim 9 now features removable baffles much like the Salvo 12 and Osprey Micro, which allows users to shorten the overall profile of the Maxim 9. Future developments include accommodations for the mounting of a light and/or laser.
As you can see, it integrates a GLOCK style trigger.
