| For accuracy in some fiction I'm writing....10/22 with a suppressor......at night.....any visible muzzle flash using subsonic ammo? |

I got a nifty "star" flash pattern running a full-auto .22 LR with a birdcage flash hider.
Not subsonic ammo, and it was in a 5-ish inch barrel. I'm guessing you wouldn't get much of a flash on a 16" or longer barrel, with or without a flash hider. On a 18" 10/22 with a suppressor, I wouldn't expect to see anything from the muzzle. Maybe a little from the ejection port, though. |

Just went out and tried it for you, albeit not on a 10/22, but a Mossberg Plinkster w/ AAC Pilot. CCI SV
No flash, not even with the NVGs, no burnt powder escaping, 16"bbl w/ 6" can though I was going to try it from the other side, but the string wasn't long enough
