The 6th Morning of Silence · Tuesday, April 22, 2026 · Presented by Silencer Central
For the 6th Morning of Silencer Central’s 100 Days of Silence, one entry — one winner — takes both a $500 Crossbreed Holsters gift card and the BANISH 22 (Silencer Central) multi-caliber rimfire suppressor. It is the kind of morning lineup that quietly tells you what this campaign is about: a carry setup built by a Missouri shop that helped invent the hybrid holster, paired with the rimfire can that makes a .22 the easiest gun in your safe to teach with.
This is a morning giveaway in Silencer Central’s 100 Days of Silence. Open 6:00 AM CT, close 11:00 PM CT. One entry, one winner, both prizes. All giveaways require a separate entry.
Why this pairing
The morning lineup of Silencer Central’s 100 Days of Silence is meant to give you a complete piece of a shooter’s life in a single drawing. Today’s piece is a quiet one.
A $500 Crossbreed gift card is enough credit to outfit a daily carry pistol from waistband to magazine carrier — with the same hand-built leather-and-Kydex hybrid that put Crossbreed on the map twenty years ago. The BANISH 22 is the rimfire suppressor that keeps a .22 trainer quiet enough that a kid behind muffs can hear the coaching, hear the shot, and learn to call it themselves. Carry rig in one hand, family trainer in the other. That is the day.
Crossbreed Holsters — the company behind the gift card
Crossbreed Holsters has been making concealment gear in Republic, Missouri since 2005. The company was founded by the late Mark Craighead, who built the first SuperTuck out of necessity: he wanted an inside-the-waistband holster that was as comfortable as leather and as fast as Kydex, and there was nothing on the market that did both well. So he built one. The hybrid IWB category that dominates concealed carry today traces its lineage straight back to that bench.
Two decades later the shop still cuts and stitches in the same town. Every holster is built in the United States to a specific make, model, and (where applicable) light or red dot configuration — not pulled off a wall of generic plastic shells. The holsters are backed by a two-week test drive — carry it, sweat in it, draw from it — and a lifetime warranty on the holster itself.
What “quality” means at Crossbreed
Three things separate the gear from the noise:
- Premium top-grain cowhide — full-grain, vegetable-tanned hide that breaks in to your body, not against it. The horsehide upgrade is denser still and is the choice of carriers who sweat through summer.
- Custom-molded Kydex shells — cut, heat-formed, and edge-finished for each handgun model so the trigger guard is fully covered and the retention click is consistent draw after draw.
- Steel-core hardware — powder-coated steel clips and Chicago screw assemblies, not the bent-wire hooks that fail at the worst moment. Ride height and cant are user-adjustable.
The company’s reputation is built on something quieter than marketing: the holsters get worn for years. That is the test that matters.
The Crossbreed product lines a $500 gift card opens up
$500 of credit is real money in this catalog. It will outfit a primary carry pistol head to toe, or it will build out a full family of rigs around one pistol — IWB for daily, OWB for the range, pocket for the off day, and a quality belt to hang it all on. Every product below links out to Crossbreed’s product page so you can research fit, options, and handgun compatibility before you redeem.
Inside the Waistband (IWB)
- SuperTuck® IWB — the flagship hybrid IWB. Cowhide backer, custom Kydex shell, tuckable steel clips. The holster that started the category.
- MicroClip® IWB — minimalist single-clip IWB built for micro-compact carry guns and appendix users who want the lightest possible footprint.
- The Reckoning® — an all-Kydex IWB with adjustable retention and modular clip system for shooters who prefer no leather against the body.
- MiniTuck® IWB — the SuperTuck philosophy in a smaller package for sub-compact pistols.

Outside the Waistband (OWB)
- SnapSlide® OWB — pancake-style OWB with two slot loops. Sits tight to the body for everyday open carry under a jacket.
- DropSlide® OWB — classic strong-side belt slide built for full-size duty and hunting pistols.
Pocket & off-body
- Pocket Rocket® — horsehide-lined pocket holster that breaks the gun’s outline and keeps the muzzle oriented for a clean draw.
- Modular Belly Band — belt-free deep concealment for athletic wear, dresses, or off-duty carry.
Magazine carriers, belts & accessories
- Magazine Carriers — single and double, IWB and OWB configurations; same Kydex precision, same hybrid comfort.
- Classic Gun Belt — double-layer leather gun belt rigid enough to support a loaded pistol all day without sag. The single best upgrade most carriers never make.
- Executive Gun Belt — dress-slack-friendly belt that carries a full-size pistol without looking like a tactical rig.
- Crossover Gun Belt — range-to-jeans belt built for shooters who carry in casual wear.
What $500 actually buys: A SuperTuck, a Classic Gun Belt, a matching mag carrier, and change to spare. Or a Reckoning IWB, a SnapSlide OWB, and a Pocket Rocket for a three-holster system around one pistol. The winner gets to make the call.
BANISH 22 — the rimfire that earns its keep
The afternoon side of this campaign is suppressor-only. The morning side is a pairing. This morning’s pairing puts a holster gift card next to one of the most universally useful suppressors a household can own: the BANISH 22.
The BANISH 22 is a multi-caliber rimfire suppressor designed for .22 LR, .22 Magnum (.22 WMR), .17 HMR, and 5.7x28mm. It is fully user-serviceable — the can comes apart for cleaning, which matters more on a rimfire suppressor than on any centerfire can in your safe (rimfire ammunition is dirty, and a .22 suppressor that can’t be opened becomes a paperweight inside a few thousand rounds).
It mounts directly to a 1/2″-28 threaded barrel with no adapter. It is light enough that a youth shooter can keep a host rifle on target without fatiguing out of position. And on subsonic .22 LR through a bolt gun, it is the definition of hearing-safe — the action cycling is louder than the report.
Why the BANISH 22 is the right first suppressor for a household with kids
If you have ever taken a child to the range, you know the first three minutes are the most important. Every flinch, every wince at the muzzle blast of the lane next to you, every “I don’t want to” gets baked into the shooter you are trying to build. A rimfire suppressor on a .22 is the single biggest unlock on that problem — and the BANISH 22 is the can most families end up with for four reasons:
- Coachable volume. A suppressed bolt-action .22 with subsonic ammo is quiet enough that a parent can talk a young shooter through grip, trigger press, and follow-through without yelling and without earpro muffling the conversation. The shot becomes a teaching moment instead of a startle.
- No felt recoil to fight. Rimfire is already a forgiving platform. Add a suppressor and the report drops below the threshold that triggers the anticipatory flinch most new shooters develop in their first hundred rounds. Fundamentals get built right the first time.
- Multi-caliber means multi-gun. One can serves the .22 LR plinker, the .22 Magnum trail rifle, the .17 HMR varminter, and the 5.7 carbine. A family with three .22 platforms doesn’t need three cans.
- Take-apart serviceability. A .22 suppressor that gets used on a Saturday afternoon trainer will see thousands of rounds a year. The BANISH 22 disassembles for cleaning so it stays a working tool, not a decoration.
That last point is also why the BANISH 22 is the suppressor most often recommended for the second shooter in a household: the spouse, the new shooter friend, the cousin who wanted to learn but never had a quiet way in.

Why is the BANISH 22 a good first suppressor for a household with kids?
A suppressed .22 rimfire with subsonic ammunition is quiet enough that a parent can coach a new shooter through grip, trigger press, and follow-through without yelling over muzzle blast. The reduced report also prevents the anticipatory flinch most new shooters develop in their first hundred rounds, so fundamentals are built correctly from day one.
