BANISH VRMT 223K Ti: 4.7-Inch Titanium Truck-Gun Suppressor

The BANISH VRMT 223K Ti is a 4.7-inch, 8-ounce titanium suppressor built for varmint hunters and ranch shooters who need a can that fits in a pack or toolbox without adding meaningful weight to a bolt-action carbine. The "K" variant is the compact model in the VRMT (Varmint) family, and the titanium build keeps it lighter than competing stainless options at the same price point.

BANISH rates the 223K Ti for all cartridges at .224 caliber and smaller, from .17 HMR through .22 Creedmoor, including standard .22 LR, .22 WMR, .223 Remington, and 5.56 NATO. Sound reduction averages 25.9 dB across the test protocol, bringing a 20-inch .223 bolt gun down to a hearing-safe 129.5 dB at the shooter's ear. The five baffles are fully user-serviceable; they stack and index by hand, so field cleaning takes minutes with no tools.

The VRMT 223K Ti is the budget-compact option in a three-model titanium and stainless .223 family. The VRMT 223 SS comes in at $579 with a 5.96-inch, 13-ounce stainless steel build. The VRMT 223 Ti is the full-size titanium version at $849, running 6.7 inches and 9.7 ounces. The 223K Ti splits the difference on price while delivering a shorter, lighter profile than either sibling.

The VRMT 223 SS undercuts the 223K Ti by $100, but the stainless build adds 5 ounces. For a bolt-action varmint rifle or a ranch truck gun where every ounce in the pack matters, the titanium construction of the 223K Ti justifies the premium. The VRMT 223 Ti is the right choice if you want maximum suppression and can live with the extra 2 inches of length. The 223K Ti is for shooters who want the lightest packable option with hearing-safe performance at a price under $700.

The VRMT 223K Ti fits three distinct use cases. First, the bolt-action varmint hunter who wants a lightweight can that does not change the balance of a light mountain rifle. At 8 ounces, it adds less to the muzzle than a heavy muzzle brake and shorter than a stack of three-round magazines. Second, the ranch truck-gun owner who needs a suppressor that lives permanently on a .22 LR or .22 WMR semi-auto, secured in a truck toolbox, ready for coyotes at the fence line. Third, the AR-15 shooter running a 16-inch or longer barrel in 5.56 who wants a compact titanium option under $700 that does not require a quick-detach mount system.

What the 223K Ti is not: a suppressor for a short AR pistol build. The 16-inch barrel minimum for .223/5.56 rules out SBRs and pistols in those chamberings. For .22 LR builds, see our best .22 suppressors guide for a broader look at rimfire options across price points and host types. For 5.56-specific builds, our best 5.56 suppressors guide covers the full market including SBR-compatible options.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act zeroed the federal NFA transfer and making tax on suppressors, SBRs, SBSs, and AOWs effective January 1, 2026. There is no $200 tax stamp on the VRMT 223K Ti. A Form 4 transfer through Silencer Central still requires an NICS background check, fingerprints, NFA registration, and CLEO notification. Silencer Central handles all of this on your behalf and mails the suppressor to your door once ATF approves the transfer.

ATF eForm 4 approvals on suppressors are currently running between six and twelve days for most transfers, down from multi-month backlogs in previous years. At $679 with no tax on top, the VRMT 223K Ti is the same out-of-pocket cost as a suppressor that used to sell for $479.
