What I can’t stand is that responsible gun owners (yes, the number of responsible gun owners far outweigh the number of irresponsible gun owners), use suppressors as a safety measure. Suppressors are a form of PPE so that you don’t blast out your ear drums in the event of having to discharge your weapon in close quarters. It’s still pretty loud, but you will still have your senses intact. Very important in high stress situations.
But Hollywood has given suppressors this reputation that they make it easy for anyone to stealthily move around a building murdering people without anyone noticing. IT’S A FAKE! That’s movie shit!
As is the case in many areas, Hollywood is the reason we can’t have nice things!

Also note that a pillow is more effective than a suppressor for a couple shots, it’s just not reusable. Which you wouldn’t care about for a crime.
That is hugely dependent on caliber. I’ve shot plenty where the only thing you hear is the action.
No, it depends on if it is subsonic amo or not, and there are certain calibers that it is easier to find subsonic amo.
You’re absolutely right, but there are calibers that you simply won’t find subsonic ammo for.
