B&T USA had a few bangers pop up at SHOT Show 2024 and among the company’s new releases for 2024 is the Glock 19 Hush Puppy. It’s a complete kit made up of a B&T Hush Puppy suppressor, and a customised Glock 19, Gen5, non-MOS.
The Gen5 Glock included in the kit comes with a factory threaded-barrel and a couple of custom features from B&T. The first is a switch that immobilizes the slide, eliminating the sound of the semi-automatic pistol’s slide reciprocating for the quietest operation possible. The second feature is the custom milling for Aimpoint’s enclosed emitter ACRO mini red-dot optic. The beauty of B&T’s work is how deeply the ACRO is embedded into the slide. The bottom of the optic’s window is just about level with the top of the slide, offering co-witnessing with standard-height irons.
The B&T Hush Puppy silencer uses polymer wipes instead of conical metal baffles for the ultimate performance in noise reduction. The wipes will last a dozen rounds, or so, before they’re no longer able to trap gasses and suppress the noise of the host pistol. Replacing the wipes with a new set takes a minute and restores the can’s performance. B&T says the Hush Puppy is as quiet as it’s VP9 silenced, bolt-action pistol, which is pretty damned quiet.
The Hush Puppy includes a custom laser cut case, two boxes of 158-grain subsonic ammo, and tools to work on the pistol and suppressor.
B&T hasn’t released an official price, but a representative expects the kit to retail for between $2200 and $2500.
