A few things I find very interesting about this supperssor and Beretta 92:
- The suppressor snaps on as opposed to the other conventional spring loaded quick attachment, or the standard thread on.
- There are new sights built into the suppressor. Damn good idea considering the factory sights on pistols are blocked by the hight of most cans.
- The Beretta has a custom slide lock on it to keep the slide from cycling and ejecting the spent shell casing (“no evidence” for assassins)
Autoweapons.com actually has one of these currently for sale – HERE (Price unknown, you apparently need to email them to find it out)

Solid Snake approves. Or, if you’ve seen Inception, just do what Leo does in the first scene of the movie ;) pretty slick and one of my favorite scenes that I was probably the only one in the theater to notice. Tangent, but man if you haven’t seen it yet Mike, do yourself a favor and go see it.
I still haven’t seen Inception, I definitely have to soon though!
I came to mention Leo’s “shoot and snatch” method from Inception too. I wondered if others in the audience noticed it at all and if they knew what he was doing. Of course, the sound of the shot would be much louder than the shell casing hitting the floor, even with the silencer in place. He was using a Beretta PX4, not sure which variant.
In “Mr. Brooks”, Costner’s character (Mr. Brooks) uses a suppressed PPK and avoided leaving the shell casing by fitting a plastic bag over his entire gun and hand, taped at the wrist.
I have to see it now as soon as i can get my tv up and running
Hmm wonder when someone is going to get around to designing a caseless suppressed pistol? I mean, heck, with the slide lock it’s a single shot weapon, there are some very good older designs that were single shot and the suppressor completed enshrouded the barrel, cutting down on OAL. In .22LR or .32 ACP they are actually pretty small.
I agree, caseless suppressed would be pretty slick!
If you read “No Remorse” by Tom Clancy, Kelly uses a .22-converted M1911 with a frame mounted on the side that holds a cloth bag to catch them. Kinda sounds like he was inspired by his lawn mower to me…
Well thought out. Must be a bitch to machine the barrel for the suppressor.Make sure you use subsonic ammo folks…lol.
Should have placed this in Inception as the Leonardo was using a PX4 with a conventional screw in can.
I like how they used lower case m’s when they said 9mm but everything else was CAPS. Cool gun though.
LOL yea.. I guess they figured they should try and keep it a bit classy in the midst of all the yelling.
IM GOING TO TYPE IN ALL CAPS TOO, JUST B/C I THINK PEOPLE UNNECESSARILY GET THEIR PANTIES IN A WAD OVER IT
AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO FINDS THIS CAN RIDICULOUSLY RETARDED? I MEAN SERIOUSLY….A SLIDE LOCK??? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? IF I WERE AN ASSASSIN (ADMITTEDLY, I AM NOT) I WOULD CERTAINLY NOT WANT A SINGLE SHOT WEAPON. IN ADDITION, IF YOU THEORETICALLY KILL THE GUY…UH…WHY WOULDNT YOU JUST PICK UP THE SHELL CASINGS AFTERWARD? i MEAN HOW FAR CAN A SHELL REALLY GO ANYWAY? IT SEEMS TO ME (Ok typing in CAPS is kindof annoying I admit it) that it would be much less “risky” in terms of getting away with it to have the ability for multiple shots than a single shot with no casing.
If you were sneaking into a village and 1st needed to silence a watch dog or sentry, locking the slide would be critical. It is also important that the round be subsonic to avoid the sound barrier crack. A 22 would not work for that reason. The 9mm used for the MK-22 was powder reduced to avoid damaging the pistol and lower the velocity below the speed of sound. If you were trying to get in, take out one person and get out quietly, a locking slide would be critical. The original design was the MK-22 issued to SEAL Teams in the 60’s, 70’s and maybe into the 80’s. They were incredibly quiet. I had the opportunity to fire one at a practice range. It did little more than blow air. The idea was to carry 2-3 of them loaded and ready to shoot. You would not want to cycle the slide while trying to be quiet. Of course these would not be the only weapons you had. If your presence was compromised you would default to automatic weapons and work on getting out of harms way.
You mean the “hushpuppy”. Iirc kac also produced it aswell
Not only does it prevent the casing from being spit out, but also keeps the slide from cycling and making more noise. Not too mention theirs sound, gasses and backpressure also ejected from the rear on some suppressed rigs. It’s not about “picking up the casing”as much as what the lock does for the system as a whole for prevention. It takes something already quiey and makes it purpose built system for those in very specific situations capable or remaining “out of sight,out of mind”. VERY similar to the welrod used in ww2 originally by the oss&soe before browning made their version which was,iirc, a 22.
How would said assasin know he’d shoot somewhere he can find his casings? He probably wouldn’t count on having a lot of time to look for it in the grass or under the furniture…
Locking the slide closed also reduces the mechanical noise which can be significant with a good suppressor and very light load. this applies more to .22s but some 9mm smgs(MP5SD) have been reduced to the point where the loudest noise comes from the bolt movement. This is clearly intended for a one target one shot scenario with a quick and clean exit. But if the shtf and your primary concern becomes survival than you have the option for semi with the flick of your finger and a rack of the slide.
I would just use an extra light load for the first(one reliably incapable of cycling the weapon). If it is difficult to find/make a load to do this or lacks necessary penetration I would use a stronger recoil spring and that should allow a hotter load while keeping the slide closed. All following rounds would be capable of cycling the action. This would remove the “flicking of the finger” and obviously less parts is generally more reliable; less to fail. Or you could just cut a hole in a large jacket pocket and point the suppressor out (you’d need to be pretty close for accuracy; think walking behind someone seated in a theater).
I was wondering how much a silencer for a 9mm 92 fs beretta cost
THAT one is going to run you at LEAST $2k but most likely much much more.
Most cans are not host specific and will cost anywhere from about $400 to close to a grand. Check these out:

One doesn’t need to be an assassin to want a suppressor. Obviously, suppressors will make it so that a gun owner who has set up a small outdoor shooting range with backstop and shooting in a safe direction, will not cause neighborhood disturbance and worry. Also when defending oneself, reducing muzzle flash and sound could be crucial in certain situations. thank you
I have to see it now as soon as i can get my tv up and running and what about wrapping a sock on the tip of the barrel and putting a beer can over that
Personally, I know that ops that really want their wet work to be very quiet learn ninja like stealth and either a quick neck snap or a Columbian Necktie all the way back to the 2-3 vertebrae ear-to-ear. No sounds, no shell casings, no rifling twist evidence, no powder evidence inexpensive & easily disposed of & can be melted for a total weapon vanishing act.
Wanted A price check on the suppressor. Does it require an aftermarket barrel
I want to buy one! I own a 92G! With MARINE CORPS GRIPS! The suppresor is a must have! How much?
