Story on the awesome dog in the background. His name was Sailor. He was a 14 year old Chesapeake bay retriever and always thought that he had to go retrieve whatever we were shooting at on the range. We had to keep him out of the range area as he would just run to the targets every time we fired looking for some sort of critter to bring back. He was a great dog but sadly he passed away back in March from age. The dog shooting jokes are funny though, so many people have commented that.
@ Requzet: It's like my Crosman American Classic P 1322 .22caliber pellet pistol. I always thought pellet guns made a little pfft sound until i fired it the first time and it sounded like a real .22. I looked at it and said ' Damn '
@@retroreality11 To be fair here in the EU for most people movies are the closest they've been to a firearm discharge xD I remember my first time hearing an actual shotgun pop off in the background of a streamer that lived in a crappy neighbourhood and I expected a looooot more bass in that sound lol but it's actually closer to two wooden boards slapping together xD *for the record she still lives lol the past tense was used because she moved out of that neighbourhood lol
Let's talk about miniguns. 😄 I think there are very few movies that actually feature realistic sounds. Just limited by speaker equipment, of course, and to keep it ear-safe. There are quieter guns, though, AFAIK. I saw a video demoing a Beretta with some special subsonic ammo that was actually called silenced not suppressed because the trigger click was louder than the bang.
Play Ghost Recon: Wildlands if you haven't already. Silencers make noise and reckoning you're not playing on easy where the bots are retarded they'll hear the silencer if shoot near them. For the best experience I recommend Extreme difficulty, with Immersive HUD (no HUD) on.
I really loved how you talked over while shooting. This gives a great accurate representation of the sound and shows how much the mic is compensating and compressing. Gunshots and silencers are often hard to accurately depict over video and I think you done a great job.
FormzOxi No shit, that’s why he’s showing off how quiet the suppressors are. Not trying to be a dickhead, but I don’t understand the point of your comment.
To someone who only knows what the movies tell me about silencers, this was really helpful. I think it would have been even better to demonstrate the noise with and without noise suppression so that the degree of suppression could be experienced. Still, this was very good.
I hear you...!! I was pleasantly amazed at how much the suppressor “quieted” the sound. I deal with 120db sounds at work but the difference here is the shockwave....Bullets that exceed the speed of sound create a shockwave and that shit can hurt more than the loud sound. The .45ACP round is very loud in person and if you aren’t wearing hearing protection of some sort when you shoot anything above a .22 you will have ringing in your ears and if you shoot a full clip at someone “like the movies” you’d be in agony while trying to keep your wits about you.
Ask John wick shoting in train station with no one.. not fking single one of the people hear it.. that impresive.. while i know.. are they all deaf or something?!
Well, a gun with a suppressor is louder than a jett taking off, at 180db (1m), silencers only reduce the sound from the gas, it goes from around 180db to 160db. Doe this sounds little, 180db is around 64x louder than 160db, so it definitely helps, but the sound of the gun and the sonic boom wont be affected
@@oddtomato1049 No, he didn't. Dog's ears are sensitive, more sensitive than human ears, so he was kinda triggered by the gunshots. The dog was kept out of the range if you read the pinned comment.
There are charts online I think of most calibers. Also short barrels, pistols and for the longer guns what muzzle device even Other than suppressors can affect the Noise. Shooting a .22LR out of a rifle can be done without hearing protection, try it with a pistol and its not a good idea...
3:53 I actually thought he was going to take a few shots at the car passing by hahahaha Edit: thank you to everyone for all the likes!! This is the most likes I have ever had on a comment! :)
Some of decibels despite being suppressed can cause damage to hearing. Depends on the decibel level and whether you're using supersonic or subsonic rounds.
Only thing that wouldve made the video better wouldve been to hear them without the suppressors as well. One of the best vids on youtube on this subject though 👍beautiful collection.
I clicked on your profile checking for your name which I found interesting and it showed me the channels you're subscribed to and I gotta say you got great entertainment taste!
To do it properly, you would need to take the spl of a suppressed round, and the spl of one unsuppressed, and find a mic that had enough dynamic range to cover it. Then make sure you have complete manual control over the gain. Otherwise it wouldnt be a realistic representation of how it sounds irl, nor would it even give you an idea. You're probably looking at over $1500 in gear.
Very informative. My only frame of reference for suppressor quietness is video games and pretty much every game makes them sound like scissors snipping.
well a suppressor would lower the overall velocity of a bullet... but not enough to actually matter to the person being shot. So to bring it to real terms, you have 100 life, and the gun does 500 damage a shot... -15 doesn't really matter.
Depends. Suppressors using wipes will slow down the bullet some because there's actual physical drag. Drag also drops as the wipes begin to wear out. This makes them unsuitable for long-range shooting. But wiped cans are Hollywood quiet. Suppressors using metal baffles will not slow down the bullet to a meaningful degree, but as they change the dynamics of the gas behind the projectile, and also alter barrel harmonics, they do change the point of impact, requiring the weapon to be re-zeroed each time it is attached or removed. But so long as they're left on, they will hold zero. Suppressed 9mm and other high-velocity handgun rounds are not very quiet because they are supersonic. Suppressors muffle the report, but not the supersonic crack. Some suppressors use special ports to bleed off enough propellant gas to make a supersonic round subsonic; special subsonic ammo, usually loaded with the heaviest possible bullet, is also available. Suppressed .45s maintain full power because the round is subsonic anyway and there's no supersonic crack. But the larger aperture makes suppression more difficult. Even so, the DeLisle carbine of World War II, basically a bolt-action .45 receiver mated to a suppressor the size of a man's arm, was measured at 85 decibels. They informally tested it by firing it from a rooftop into the River Thames. Nobody heard a sound.
@@shane99ca Still doesn't beat the quiet of the Suppressed "Air Rifle" 50 cal. topairgun.com/product/50-airforce-texan-lss-big-bore-pcp-air-rifle/ Its expensive but holy shit... Demolition Ranch Reviewed this rifle... and its NOT qualified as a firearm so anyone who can afford it can own it.

This was incredibly helpful, thank you! I'm designing sound for a show with multiple weapons, some with silencers, and wasn't sure how accurate movie adaptations of silencers were.
@@CyberBeep_kenshi bruh don’t be ridiculous. Nobody, save maybe homeless lunatics, would do this sort of thing on a playground and upload it to RU-vid. I was thinking it was just his backyard and he lives by a main road.
The cars in the background accidentally helped to display just how loud or not loud some of it was. When firing the rifle, the car's "whoosh" would be drowned out by the shots.
Little tip: if you’re really after getting the quietest possible noise possible, pair your suppressor with subsonic rounds. Subsonic rounds travel under the speed of sound unlike normal rounds, so that “crack” that happens because they break the sound barrier is absent. The cons are that the bullet is moving slower, but you have to keep in mind it’s still going very, very fast. Some guns also may have trouble feeding/ejecting subsonic rounds because there isn’t as much force pushing the slide/bolt back, so see how your gun handles it.
@@agurico7421 with knowing basic physics, would say no. Because F=M*S F = force aka damage in this case, dont know if there is any mass (M) difference but "S"(speed) is lower. So automaticly "F" should be lower as well. Have no gun knowledge at all but I guess if you get hit with one of those you still need medical care....
Some things about suppressors and subsonic ammo. 1: Having a suppressor attached to your gun helps minimize recoil from the added weight at the end. 2: Theoretically having a suppressor mounted extends the range of the gun. 3: They get stupid hot very fast because of the gas traveling through all those baffles inside the suppressor. 4: Having a suppressor obviously minimizes the sound it generates when a gun is fired but nowhere near Hollywood levels of a “zip” noise. And a suppressor completely hides the fireball(flash) that a gun makes when being fired. Now for subsonic ammo. 1: They are obviously quieter closer to Hollywood levels but you’ll hear more of a clicking and thudding noise from the movement of the firearm and the bullet impacting whatever it hit. 2: As what the guy stated in the video since it’s subsonic ammunition some firearms have trouble cycling through the rounds because not enough gas made it through the bolt of the gun to eject the round. Some firearms have an adjustable gas block but that’s a whole different explanation. 3: Since the bullet never breaks the sound barrier you have a shorter effective range. And since the bullet is traveling at lower speeds the wind can definitely impact your accuracy at longer distances. 4: Subsonic ammo still does damage regardless of what speed it’s traveling. If you get hit you get hit and you’ll have a very bad day in the end.
"What does a silencer sound like?" A silencer on it's own doesn't make any sound. But if put on a gun. It'll create a muffled bullet. According to Jimmy the barbarian it's sounds like powder in the casing burning and expanding, pushing the bullet out, that makes a lot of vibrations that flow through the air of the barrel but is caught by the suppressor.
I'm from Gibraltar (which is a British overseas territory) the local clay pigeon shoot is actually right next to a main road. I've been to a few in the UK that are surprisingly close to main roads and such.
Suppressors could actually help you distinguish between enemy and ally fire as long as your entire squad is equipped with one each, taking advantage of battle strategy
Since all the sounds are picked up and compressed by your camera's microphone, you really should have fired the weapons both with and without the supressors to give some sort of frame of reference.
I came here after that John Wick scene where him & Commons character were shooting at each other with silencers in public & nobody noticed lol I was like NO WAY PEOPLE CAN’T HEAR THAT! Wait what does a silencer sound like anyways? And here I am😂😂😂😂😂
Not to be that guy but friendly reminder of trigger discipline. Many times when you're talking to the camera and flailing the gun around or not even looking downrange, your finger subconsciously and frequently taps the trigger on several occasions: 2:36, 3:29, 3:48, 4:27, 4:42. Keep yourself and everyone around you safe.
Well done! This is actually the first video I've found that demonstrates the sound of suppressed guns where the loudness is not totally messed up by the recording electronics.
While the name denotes silent, it is in fact, not very silent at all. The elimination of expelling gass noise is one thing, but there still is a whole ass explosion going on in the gun. However, it is SIGNIFICANTLY more quiet than no silencer at all. Hollywood and video games make you think that you can slip through an enemy base and pick everyone off one by one without being detected, and that's just not the case, silencers are there to 1. Make a gun audibly safe, And 2. Reduce detection range (not eliminate it)
Silencers/suppressors serve man purposes. You'll never cancel the noise, but you can alter it. Can use a suppressor to reduce the bullet from supersonic to subsonic speeds, which will reduce the crack noise. This can save your ears indoors. Snipers will position themselves with a suppressor where the bullet will pass by a large object. By limiting the Bang from the gun, the crack from a supersonic bullet passing by the object will mask the gun bang, thus masking the snipers position. Suppressors will also reduce vertical recoil, making it easier to control under fire, it will also greatly reduce muzzle flash, lifting detection. Varying the size and position of the baffles inside the suppressor can also alter the audible signature of a shot, this can help change the proceived sound of the gunshot, especially in an urban setup. Can reduce panic. Suppressors are used when entering gaseous environments, like storming a meth lab chemical weapons depot, or hazardous environments. As it limits muzzle flash, reduces the risk of ignition. We will put tape over the end of our suppressors to limit the possibility of gas entry into the barrel if the risk is very high.
The problem is that in part of the country a silencer or suppressor is illegal and in some cases has been for 40 to 50 years.worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/suppressor-laws-by-state www.ficarettalegal.com/regulation-of-firearm-silencers-under-federal-law/
The main reason I want a suppressor is in case of a break in I don’t feel like having my ears ring while cops are talking to me about a man shot dead in my home
