For most, the .22LR is the best choice, using "standard velocity ammo" Best from a pistol, with the shorter barrel being far better than a longer barrel. Beretta .22LR Bobcat has one of the shortest barrels out there; and it's fantastic for being super quiet. One can use "true" subsonic ammo in a pistol, and there's stuff that won't cycle, and that stuff is even quieter. However, when dealing with ammo that is not enough to cycle, you'd want to watch for impacts to verify that the projectile actually left the barrel . The recipe is pretty simple; the less gunpowder used, the quieter; The heavier the projectile, the slower the projectile "HELPS" Shorter barrel to a degree. A .22LR has the least amount of gunpowder compared to 9mm, .45ACP, 5.56, .308, etc. A 9mm shooting heavier projectiles like 147 or 158 grain projectiles is second on my "list of quiet".. .45 ACP tends to be significantly louder than 9mm. .308 would be third, followed by 5.56 for the order of quietest to loudest. My pellet rifles are LOUDER than my .22LR's.. Regular videos don't do justice to suppressors; the sound is dynamically adjusted often by the camera, making quieter sounds louder, and louder noises quieter; pushing everything towards the center. Best experienced in person, from the position of pulling the trigger and also by standing a few meters off to the side of the shooter. If you want to experience that "pffft" sound, you really need to experience it in person.
@@deuceandguns Remember that inn Bert's underground bunker in the Film " Tremors " it was the sound and vibrations of the case tumbler that attracted the Graboid.
I've simply sat down and scraped the junk off with a knife because apparently it can be damaged by all the easy ways to clean. This is also the reason why I have an identical can in titanium.
I appreciate the effort you put into sharing this. You really sold me on the Sparrow. I'd love to see how the supressors perform with CRC Silaramic Brake Grease or Vaseline, as compared to dry.
I did a something similar with wire pulling gel in this video here: th-cam.com/video/6nD5aCMwuvc/w-d-xo.html I may have to give CRC a try at some point.
@deuceandguns Thanks. That video was useful as well. I think the CRC or Vaseline might perform better, but be slower and more involved to apply. I get the impression people use them to make the supressors easy to clean... but they 'should' also serve as a 'wet' agent. Your method of testing makes it easy to hear the change.

Every shot you take leaves behind a small amount of fragments from the gunpowder burning. The more you shoot, the more every shot subsequent shot would increase in leftover residue, increasing the surface area for the sound to be trapped.. When soundproofing an area, the deeper the fabric, the more it captures. OR, think of soundwaves as a paper towel running over a smooth surface, and then the towel running over some 400 grit sandpaper. After a few hundred rounds the silencer would trap residue more like sandpaper that would be 200 grit. And so on.
It's a tiny survival rifle called a Little Badger. I've got an older video on it and a new one coming out soon. Link to older vid - th-cam.com/video/FQdFRI3SGu0/w-d-xo.html
It removes much of it but lead likes to stick in scrapes and under fingernails. Lead specific soap has a chemical that bonds with heavy metals to help flush it out. If your hobby is shooting then regular soap is probably fine, but if your hobby is casting and reloading thousands of lead cast bullets like mine is then something extra may be needed.
My rewound favorite way to clean the baffles of my AAC Element 2, dump them in a plastic bin of vinegar and put that tub in a water bath in tht ultrasonic cleaner for about five minutes. They come out looking brand new!
Unless you are a business, it does not make sense to buy or rent a proper sound meter. The only real way to experience the sound from a suppressor is to be there, behind the trigger, and also to be off to the side a few meters away to experience the other perspectives. From a video, sound is, the term would be , truncated, or cut off. Worse, most cameras tend to make quieter sounds louder and louder sounds quieter, shifting things to the center. Regardless, the titanium and sparrow sound better, in my opinion, than the aluminum. Personally, I want to stay away from aluminum as the other materials can deal with harsher chemicals better; but reality is that most of us OVER CLEAN our guns and suppressors anyways.

You're good people. I relate to you more than a lot of other channels.
That first shot "pop" is more noticeable with the cleaned suppressor/ gun muffler!
I still want so see a suppressor that just goes " Pffft " like in the movies.

Put a 223 can on a .22 bolt action with Aguila super colibre.... you'll hear the firing pin drop.
If it's louder that a blowgun I don't want it! :-)
The aluminum silencer sounded quieter to me, especially the "dirty" one.
That extra grime does help a bit.
Bc have you made sure there are no Graboids in your area before you
use that Tumbler cleaner? Tumbler noise is like a mating call to Graboids.
I need to go back and watch that movie. Haven't seen it in a few years.

@@deuceandgunsthere's like 7 movies now.
My 22 can is going to need to be cleaned soon. I am not sure how I want to attack the aluminum can.

what do you think is the best .22 suppressor? i am in the market.
That's a great question. I have a few favorites but give me some time to verify a few things and I'll put together a video on the topic.
@@deuceandguns will do, waiting on my 9MM suppressor now and once i get that one i will be purchasing the .22,

I'm going to try this with a decibel meter.
3:50 my goodness. Small game getter.
Thanks for the interesting video BC.
Good video
Are you sure washing hands real good with ordinary soap wouldn't remove lead residue?
It removes much of it but lead likes to stick in scrapes and under fingernails. Lead specific soap has a chemical that bonds with heavy metals to help flush it out. If your hobby is shooting then regular soap is probably fine, but if your hobby is casting and reloading thousands of lead cast bullets like mine is then something extra may be needed.
If your looking to get more quiet just wet your suppressor. A dry suppressor is louder than a wet one.
Yep, did that video 5 years ago comparing water vs. wire pulling gel.
👍🖖
