Daily Gun Pictures Presents: Facts about Silencers
Facts about Silencers:
They call them silencers but in fact they are a sound suppressor. They reduce the noise level (decibel) that the human ear hears, and even this varies from person to person.
There are two types of Gun Suppressors:
Wet and Dry.
A 'Wet' Suppressor uses either grease (a gel) or water to help reduce the sound, that's called muffling the sound.
A 'Dry' Suppressor, which is the more common used today. This simply screws onto a threaded barrel.
There are two 'Dry Suppressor' types:
Solid Core Piece - it essentially is like a barrel on a gun, you use the same cleaning tool as you do to clean the barrel of your handgun or rifle.
Parts Assembled - This type allows the user to take the suppressor apart to clean it thoroughly.
To reduce the sound a firearm makes, such as a 22 caliber or 9mm pistol should use sub sonic ammo (bullets) should be used.
A 'Silencer' does not have to be large as you see in the movies although they are readily used. The newer suppressors use titanium and the suppressor is smaller in length and diameter and not nearly as heavy.
To mount a suppressor on a semi auto handgun you must have 3 basic parts.
First – A threaded extended Barrel.
Second – An Adapter that screws onto the threaded barrel, then onto the suppressor.
Third – The Suppressor unit itself that either quick disconnects onto the threaded adapter or screws onto the adapter piece.
Often times the Suppressor is made specifically for a type of gun. For example one of the most common handguns in America is a Glock. To accommodate the Glock some people elect to have an elevated sight put onto the suppressor for better sight and aiming.
Glock at the moment does not make an extended barrel for most of it's handguns. So for a suppressor to fit a Glock you have to buy a third party gun barrel with a threaded piece for the suppressor to fit.
This is why many people who want to own a Suppressor legally in the USA end up buying an H&K (USP Tactical Series); Sig Sauer (such as the P220); or Beretta handgun (such as the 92 Series) with an extended barrel, then have the barrel threaded, if necessary, by the suppressor manufacturer or a third party that specializes in doing so.
