Silencer Central Launches 200-Suppressor Giveaway: 100 Days, Two Winners Daily

Sioux Falls, South Dakota – Silencer Central, America’s leader in silencer sales with delivered to your door service, today launched “Silencer Central’s 100 Days of Silence,” a first-of-its-kind daily giveaway program that will award 200 suppressors over 100 consecutive days. Running from April 17 through July 25, 2026, the campaign is the largest suppressor giveaway ever staged in the United States, with a total prize value exceeding $200,000.

The program features two giveaways every day. Each morning, a sponsor’s featured product is paired with a suppressor — one entry, one winner takes both. Each afternoon, BANISH provides a suppressor for a suppressor-only drawing. Morning giveaways open at 6:00 a.m. CT; afternoon giveaways open at 12:00 p.m. CT. Entry is free, and no purchase is necessary. Every giveaway requires a separate daily visit and entry at PopularSuppressors.com/100-Days-of-Silence/, giving participants a new chance to win every single day. There is no automatic carryover from previous entries: participants must return and enter each day for every giveaway they wish to enter.

The launch comes at a pivotal moment for the suppressor industry. On January 1, 2026, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act eliminated the $200 NFA tax stamp that had been a barrier to suppressor ownership for 90 years. With that obstacle removed, Silencer Central’s 100 Days of Silence introduces a new audience to suppressor ownership — 200 new owners over 100 days.

“Suppressors protect hearing, reduce noise complaints, and make shooting more enjoyable for everyone on and off the range,” said Joe Kurtenbach, Silencer Central Senior Manager Media & Relationships. “For 90 years, a $200 tax stamp stood between Americans and hearing protection they should have had all along. Now that barrier is gone, and 100 Days of Silence is our way of putting suppressors into the hands of 200 new owners who can experience the difference firsthand.”

Morning giveaways are presented by Silencer Central and feature prize packages from leading firearms manufacturers. Confirmed sponsors include Wilson Combat, Weatherby, Rock River Arms, Ruger, Kimber, CZ-USA, Savage Arms, Bergara, The Ranch TX, Real Avid, Height Defense, and BANISH Suppressors, with additional brands joining throughout the 100-day campaign.

FPC Files Reply Brief in Lawsuit Challenging Massachusetts Handgun Ban

Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) filed its reply brief with the First Circuit Court of Appeals in Granata v. Campbell, its lawsuit challenging Massachusetts’s ban on modern, constitutionally protected handguns. FPC’s appeal follows the district court’s decision last year erroneously ruling in favor of the state.

The plaintiffs challenging the ban include two individual FPC members as well as The Gun Runner, LLC, a retailer in the state. The plaintiffs are represented by David H. Thompson, Peter A. Patterson, and William V. Bergstrom of Cooper & Kirk, PLLC, along with Richard Cullin Chambers, Jr. of Chambers Law Office.

The reply brief was filed on April 15, 2026. With briefing complete, the court will either set an oral argument date or issue a decision without arguments.

The brief was filed in the First Circuit Court of Appeals, which covers Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Puerto Rico, and Rhode Island.

Massachusetts’ ban unconstitutionally prohibits common, modern arms that are constitutionally protected by the Second Amendment. Under the state’s logic, banning guns is perfectly fine as long as one model of handgun remains legal to buy.

“The Supreme Court held that handguns are protected by the Second Amendment-full stop. But if Massachusetts is allowed to ban the handguns at issue in this case the Second Amendment will mean however little anti-rights politicians decide it means that day. We are pressing forward to end this ban and free the people of Massachusetts from this unconstitutional tyranny-as the Constitution and binding Supreme Court precedent require.” -FPC President Brandon Combs.

DOJ Surrenders its Appeal in Fight Over ATF “Engaged in the Business” Rule

Gun Owners of America (GOA) and Gun Owners Foundation (GOF) are proud to announce a major win in our ongoing legal battle against the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosive’s (ATF) Biden-era “Engaged in the Business” rule. The Department of Justice (DOJ) has asked the Fifth Circuit to dismiss its appeal of the preliminary injunction GOA, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill, Utah Attorney General Derek Brown, and Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch obtained against ATF’s unconstitutional Biden-era “Engaged in the Business” rule.

This rule was just a backdoor scheme by President Biden “to move the U.S. as close to universal background checks as possible without additional legislation.” Under the rule, even a single private firearm sale could suddenly become a federal crime. And ATF inverted the ordinary judicial process, presuming gun owners guilty until proven innocent.

After the enormous pressure brought to bear by gun owners, DOJ is seeking a dismissal allowing the case to return to district court. Our preliminary injunction blocking the rule remains in effect, and GOA will pursue a final order permanently striking down Biden’s unconstitutional and unlawful regulation.

Erich Pratt, Senior Vice President of Gun Owners of America, issued the following statement: “This move by DOJ is a massive step towards fulfilling President Trump’s campaign promise to gun owners to end his Biden rule. Biden’s criminalization of private gun sales was a naked attempt to infringe on the Second Amendment rights of millions of gun owners. GOA and GOF once gain have triumphed over ATF overreach.” Read more
