Suppressed Revolver

[qsy]

Any of you NFA types ever suppressed a revolver just....because? Curious about the effects.

[BigWaylon]

It's really loud...unless it's a Nagant.

[qsy]

does it do anything at all, or is it just a muzzle weight?

[_Stormin_]

How would it do much of anything? You have the "jump" from the cylinder to the barrel where noise will be made...

[qsy]

I get that Stormin, just curious if it has any appreciable effect.

Like BigWaylon said, unless it's a Nagant it's going to be loud. I would also worry about the increased pressure flame cutting the top strap with regular use. Add that to what is certainly a ridiculous cost to thread a revolver barrel (remove front sight, etc.) and I wouldn't even try it.

that is one badass little gun. I'm always impressed by the way a guy with real skills and some tools can just "make stuff" out of steel.
