Banish has released the COMP 6.5 series, a pair of suppressors purpose-built for 6.5mm competition shooting. The line opens with two models: the COMP 6.5 SS (stainless steel) and the COMP 6.5 TI (titanium). Both use a dedicated.264‑caliber bore and ship with a two‑port brake plus a flat 6.5mm muzzle cap so shooters can choose recoil control or maximum sound reduction.
What's new for competition shooters
Construction, finishes, and weights
COMP 6.5 SS: stainless construction. Weighs 14.6 ounces with the two‑port brake installed and 12.2 ounces without the brake. Offered in black and flat dark earth (FDE) finishes.
COMP 6.5 TI: titanium construction. Lighter than the stainless model, it weighs 10.4 ounces with the brake and 8.7 ounces without. Also available in black and FDE cerakote.
Banish uses a mounting approach that comes with a 5/8x24 direct thread mount and HUB compatibility, which allows the suppressor to interface with a broad range of hub mounting systems. Manufacturer material supplied with the launch describes the COMP series as shipping with both the two‑port brake and a flat muzzle cap, enabling a quick configuration change depending on whether a shooter wants recoil control or maximum sound reduction.
Details released around the COMP series point to a multi‑baffle internal stack consistent with competition‑oriented cans. One related account describes a six‑baffle stack paired with the two‑port brake and muzzle cap as the mechanical basis for balancing recoil management and sound suppression. The series is backed by Banish's lifetime warranty.
Banish lists the COMP 6.5 suppressors as in stock and ready to order. The company markets the series specifically for precision and bolt‑gun competition shooters who want a dedicated 6.5mm bore, lighter titanium and more robust stainless options, and the out‑of‑the‑box brake for faster transitions on target.
- If weight is a priority, the COMP 6.5 TI is significantly lighter than the SS version.
- The 5/8x24 direct thread/HUB compatibility makes mounting flexible for users with existing hub systems.
- The suppressors are rated up to 6.5 PRC and carry Banish's lifetime warranty.
