Ya man I think I have been the exception as far as timely approvals go! I was hoping to have it by last deer season! Silencer Central added about 6 weeks total to the process but it that was the can I wanted :tup: Hopefully yours is fasterHow did they add six weeks to the process?

Three weeks on the front end waiting for fingerprint cards to arrive, mail back and get sent to ATF. Three weeks on the back end waiting on them to ship to my state, then to my door once I was cleared

That's interesting. So adding nearly a quarter of the amount of time it takes to get approved after submission.Ya man I think I have been the exception as far as timely approvals go!

Have a Banish 30, 9" configuration, once you have one you will what to get another, so
Received Banish Backcountry in August of last year, to have a lighter short compact one for hunting. In my observation, it is not quite as quiet as the Banish 30 but was exactly what I was looking for hunting with. I do most my range, target and load development shooting with the Banish 30 (since you can disassemble to clean) and then prior to hunting verified that nothing changed with the load (fps) none noticed, point of impact will change and different with each rifle, on my 280AI impact shifted 2 MOA left and on a 6.5 impact shifted 2 MOA up. Overall very happy with the backcountry for the application I purchased it for.

Well my suppressors arrived today… my backcountry doesn’t have the thread adapter in the box :bash:oh boy I’d be hot! Hopefully they ship it out quick!

This is my quick review.thanks for the review

I purchased the Banish 30 back in 2021 using the old paper forms and received it in the summer of 2022, well over a year later. I bought a Backcountry in the fall of 2022 shortly after Silencer Central announced it. I bought that suppressor using the new (at the time) E-Form system and, IIRC, I received it about 8-9 months later. For what it's worth, I heard from 3 different people this week saying they just received approval for their suppressors after a 3-4 month wait time. Not exactly sure what's going on lately, but it really seems like the ATF made some changes to their system and have been approving silencers A LOT faster than used to be the case.
Anyway, the Banish 30 is a little quieter than the Backcountry when the 30 is in its full 9" configuration. However, it's also nearly 4" longer overall and can really be a pain to deal with in many hunting situations. Even though it's a little louder than the 30, the Backcountry is still wonderful at reducing noise and recoil and is MUCH handier to tote around on a hunt. To be perfectly candid, I would have bought the Banish Backcountry instead of the Banish 30 if it were available back in 2021 when I made my first suppressor purchase because I think it fits my needs better.
I think the Banish 30 is a more versatile suppressor and is a better choice for someone who wants something very flexible thats suitable for a lot of use at the range for high volume work as well as afield hunting. The same is also true if you do a lot of hunting where you don't necessarily require a lighter and/or more compact suppressor. Or if you want the maximum noise reduction and/or recoil reduction.
On the other hand, I think the Backcountry is a better hunting specific suppressor. Sure, you can slap it on an AR and have a lot of fun at the range with it too, but I think there are other suppressors better suited for that work. But the Banish Backcountry is hands down the better suppressor for someone who wants a lightweight and compact suppressor ideally suited for hunting that also provides good noise and recoil reduction.
The Banish 30 is also a little less expensive and you can disassemble it to clean it (that's not the case with the Backcountry).
