I heard that the 5.45x39 ammunition cannot be used with a suppressor unless it uses a subsonic ammunition.
Is that true?
Is that true?
as far as I know in order for any round to be suppressed it has to be fired at sup sonic speeds because of the sonice boom a round makes as it accelerates faster then sound
Well, that helps, but is not a "must".GR34 wrote:

I know that the 5.56 supersonic can be fitted with a suppressor, but I've heard mixed things about the 5.45

the type of round being fired does have an effect, but most rounds can be suppressed.
it is a matter of trapping expanding gas....make it travel through as many baffles as you can. by the time someone hears it, it sounds more like a "swoosh" sound. not the "pfft pfft pfft" you see in the movies.

Yeah, I am quite amused by the super suppressors in the movies.Parker wrote:

I did hear a m4 silenced before, it sounded like a small explosive decompression.
Here is a sight that makes suppressors for the AK family

They only say not to use unstable ammo, i.e. flechette and sabot.
The SR-25 that we had in Iraq were the quietest weapon I have ever heard. All you could hear was the click of the bolt.

We also had M16A4's with surefire suppressors that were pretty damn quite too.
Quiet, not quite.

I hate it that world guns site combined the M110 and SR-25 in one page and didn't separate them, don't care if they are made by the same company they are not that much related.SgtHeihn wrote:

The irony of guns, is that they can save lives.
