I just heard this...

put a new baby nipple on the end of a 22 rifle with duck tape and it acts as a silence for the first shot, and sometimes the second shot......


True or not?

So you get 2 to 4 shots for each baby?

Yes but the screams of the baby negate any advantage of the muffled muzzle blast.

That poor baby.

Go thru life with only one nipple.

Wouldn't the first shot have to get stuck in the barrel to not make a sound?

In other words, if the round exits, so will the sound?

The rounds all leave a standard suppressor, but the sound is muffled.

So is that how silencers work?

They plug the muzzle so the bullet and sound don't exit?

I'll test this next weekend, provided the ATF doesn't send it's black helicopter after me in the mean time.

There is a little trap door that opens and closes like really really fast. You had to oil the hinges on the old silencers.

Hey while you're at it - test out that string-loop-thingie on the trigger too. And don't forget to post the video of you doing it here too.

I don't know what you are talking about mr. ATF man.

Yes I do own a mini-14.  No, none of my shoes have shoe strings...

i cannot confirm or deny that many deer died with that nipple/.22 short/winchester 63 combo in SE OK between the years of 1984-1990.

the .22 short is wicked out of it.

They say a plastic soda bottle that has a mouth that  snugly fits the diameter of the bull barrel on a .22 pistol like a KMK512 Ruger is an effective silencer too.

That' just what they say.

My neighbor just told me the same thing. His father lived in the city and was having problems with ground hogs. His medicine is a 22 with a baby nipple. Says it works..

A while back someon posted a video of a guy (I can only assume he had a manufacturer's license) testing the soda bottle out on a 9mm. It definitely worked.

I have also seen pics of a device some company made that screws onto a threaded bbl and accepts a soda bottle in theads on the other side. IIRC they said he ATF ruled it no-go for some reason, but I could be wrong.

It would sure be a neat device to have if you can still buy them. You'd never wear it out. But I think the argument was that each new bottle you attached became a new silencer, so you'd have to register each bottle.
