OT Are gun silencers on pistols really as effective as they show in
the movies? What about the breech? Does a lot of the noise come
from there?

And what about the muzzle? Doesn't the bullet make a hole in whatever
is in the silencer, so the noise can follow the bullet out the hole?
After all, the walls on the barrel are pretty strong, so the noise
without a silencer must come out the mouth of the barrel. Why not out
the mouth of the silencer, at least after it's been used a couple
times?

I've fired a pistol, without a silencer, and didn't or couldn't
notice these things.

This is Marco. I'm a mafia boss. I offed lots of mobsters with
silencers. Once you get a silencer, you'll never go back. You dont
want Mezza morta, you want em whacked. You cant remove the sound when
you do spring cleaning. The Code Of Silence is of utmost important in
the family and Chiacchierones are offed. When the time comes for a
facia bruta just grab your silencer and get the message job done.
