Thread: Quietest .22 Suppressor ?

A suppressor works by slowing and cooling the muzzle gases with sufficient volume to allow the gases to expand and cool. Small, quiet suppressors are a product of Hollywood!

As a layman I completely agree, some are much more quiet for there volume than others to be fair but volume still seems to be king
