Revolvers cannot be suppressed, and fully functioning semis cannot as the escaping gasses from the cycling will cause noise problems. Some delayed blow back ones will though. However you are then using full pressed ammo and that also causes problems at pistol ranges.
Alternative is the suppressed Hi Standard.
Not what you wanted was it.  |
Actually, that follows with what I was thinking,, But as far as 22lr, I'm covered. I have a Ruger 22/25 light and S&W Walther ppk. These aren't mine but look the same. I replaced the rear sight with a Burris FastFire, instead of a rail mount.
I'm looking for a 9mm or 45. If I keep to std loads, under 1100 FPS, I think I'm hearing safe. Most of the good cans are rated in the 130-135 db range? Right now I'm liking the Silencerco Osprey 45 (low to the line of sight) or AAC'c ti-rant 45 (it can be disassembled)
For starters, I'll convert my G23 to G19 and TRY to sell off the 45's that can't be converted,, at a fair price..
