Interesting. I didn't realize all the fps ratings were rifle based.
For rifle rounds I have heard the 300 Blackouts can be very quiet, but haven't ever tried with suppression.
Toy shopping maybe next year as I imagine some of the regulations will ease up and the corn crop will be bountiful.
Also check out 8.6 Blackout with 1:3 twist
It depends on the round. Handgun rounds will be based on handgun barrel lengths. Rifle rounds based on rifle lengths.
22lr stands for 22 long rifle, so rifle fps calculations and not all the powder burns in and handgun barrel so they are slower. This is part of why 22 silencers get so dirty so fast and are such a pain to clean.
I still need to build myself a blackout upper, this conversation is giving me an itchy credit card. I will say that 556 out of a short barrel is loud as hell even with a silencer.
I appreciate the depth of your knowledge on this. Always grateful to learn something new 🙏
First hand experience with NFA items is rare but very valuable for cutting through the giant wall of misinformation being repeated on the internet by people who don't have real world experience.
Happy to help clear up myths where I know the facts.

Interesting, that makes sense. On a silenced semi auto that is subsonic the action causes a significant part of the sound.
Manually cycling the action is much quieter because it is after the suppressor has done its job. A semi auto opens quick enough to allow some of the bang to come back out of the chamber.
On second watching I can kind of see him panicking as the gun doesn't operate the way he expected.
Interesting that there would be a concerted effort to create the professional assassin narrative.
Makes sense. They don't want more regular people getting the idea that this is doable for the other cantillionaires.
That was my thought as well
Can't confirm authenticity, I've never seen suppression like this... but I want to believe it's real. https://video.nostr.build/c6f0df0597f45c8702a712a6727a5fa138427dce357690e2e27b0b5feaff4e84.mp4
Looks bogus to me. Just the action sliding home would be louder than that compared to his voice.
There is no magic in a suppressor. The action running is exactly as loud as if you pull it back and let it go to chamber a round.
People with self respect can't see what is being said behind that link.
