Background: The use of firearms had long been associated with hearing damage. For recreational shooters and soldiers alike, hearing damage and tinnitus have been extremely common forms of health damage. Even with hearing protection, this damage can be very serious - hearing protection equipment covers the ear canal, but sound waves still attack the eardrums through the bone where unshielded.
Nor can shooters hope to always be wearing hearing protection. In a defensive scenario, especially an enclosed space - such as when defending against a home invasion or a carjacking - even firing a few shots at your attacker might leave you winning the fight, but injured for life.
For organizations that pay out the health costs for their uniformed personnel, the cost of paying out the medical care costs for veterans with hearing damage can easily enter many thousands of dollars over the lifespan of a given veteran.
Modern suppressors help address this problem, reducing the noise produced by firearms at the source. While it is almost impossible to render a firearm completely silent, the Allanean Arms [i]Whisper[TM reduces the noise of a typical 9 mm pistol to about 120 decibels - below the defined 140-decibel safe hearing level, around the same sound as a roll of thunder. (For comparison, firing an unsuppressed 9 mm pistol is 160 decibels - louder than an airliner on takeoff!)
The Whisper[TM is a compact, modern suppressor using innovative diagonal baffle technology to minimize noise reduction. It is not user serviceable (beyond cleaning) and requires a qualified armorer for any advanced servicing - on the other hand, it is shot enough to be used on a defensive pistol, and compatible with most common pistol rounds from .22 to .45. It can be used on pistols and pistol-caliber carbines alike, and can be used by sports shooters, defensive shooters, and military professionals. External ribbing serves for improved cooling and reliability.
