Not really any substance to this post I guess, just watching this cheezy covert opp.s type military movie on FX-you know the kind: a "bad @$$ military squad blows a bunch of stuff up trying to retrieve some files or information about a virus, or the virus itself from a terrorist group from the third world or middle east....three guys just got shot, all standing in a group, with a silenced pistol, it was so quiet that the two other guys didn't even notice that they're buddy misteriously fell down before they were both shot as well...great direction ya know...

Anyone ever notice how quiet "silenced" guns are in the movies? Granted, back in my youth I rigged up a few .22lr's that were that quiet, they were bolt actions, which supposedly CAN become completely silent with subsonic ammo, but ever notice what's silenced in the movies? 9mm blowback pistols...anyone else see a problem with this? The sound they make is pretty consistent with silenced locked action arms, but blowback actions let a crap load of sound out the breech, you'd still get a bang, not a "p-tew"...I once saw one that showed a silenced tommy gun-tell me what's not wrong about that!!!
