“Does every liberal get educated on silencers with movies?”

No, liberals only know to say what they think the public will buy to think they are right.

There are currently no devices publicly available (there may be devices available in the intelligence world and perhaps to special forces operators however) that can reduce the sound of a gunshot by more than 30-40db MAX. Since a firearm report is roughly 140db, this would simply lower the sound of that report to roughly 100-110 db, which is the sound of motorcycle.

Flash Suppressors don’t lower the sound of firearms to movie and television levels, which are anywhere from 40-70db. If someone were to invent such a device, and it worked well for extended periods, then they likely would receive number of contracts and sales for that devices and make a mint.

Just saying, youtube demonstrations of silencers alone show that she doesn’t know what she’s talking about.

Moreso: it does nothing to lower the “sonic crack” of the bullet traveling supersonic speeds. I’ve had bullets go by, and they’re LOUD. VERY LOUD - and that’s without the muzzle blast involved.
