Not so difficult with modern suppressor design using K baffles and other advancements. My MP5 can be used with a Gemtech Raptor muzzle can and a special recipe of 147 Grain ammo and all you can really hear is the bolt clacking and brass hitting the concrete at the range.

I've not heard of a 'K baffle'...Does that refer to the shape, or composition, or something else???

My input is you can silence a .22LR in a Mark I or II or III Ruger. There is a shroud over the whole barrel to do it.

Silencing a .22 short is easy. Silencing a .32 ACP is actually more difficult as they show on movies. There are silencers for .32 Walther ACPs in the Walther designed to screw on the huge after piece.

Now you want to say you can silence a 9mm Luger as if it makes no sound at all with a foot long silencer.

I figure go to it but don't expect me to buy it. I'd just use a .22 LR with a silencer or .22 short or maybe, maybe, a .32 Walther PP or PPK.

Silencers are over rated. You shoot a bullet out of a revolver or auto that is bigger than a .22 Short you are in for noise. This is a non argument to me. You cannot silence a 9mm Luger like James Bond does with a .32 ACP. And even that is subject to question. Maybe a .22 Short? I'll buy that.

Yes, it refers to how it looks in cross section. It is more like a "K", with a truncated spiral channel, which redirects and slows the gases.
