Mach 1 is approx. 1125 fps at sea level, varying with humidity, barometric pressure, etc. The crack of the bullet is actually a sonic boom, where the air is slapping back together after the slug's passage.

About Hollywood, it is also about expectations. People expect suppressed guns in movies to go 'pft', anything else would be distracting and them out of the movie. Similar to sci-fi movies: explosions in out space have to be audible even though there is no atmosphere to carry soundwaves.

[@AllAboutSurvival]

It’s fascinating to see the real-world performance and how far they actually reduce noise. While they’re not 'movie quiet,' the reduction in decibels is still impressive and makes a huge difference in hearing protection and stealth in practical applications.

@@joshparnow9044 It does feel similar to an airsoft or airgun. However, most movies exaggerate by portraying it as if someone outside a bathroom door wouldn’t hear anything. That’s unrealistic, but I agree that the Sparrow and a Mark/Mamba are indeed very quiet. I was watching the Day of the Jackal series and, even though it's a delight for gun lovers, they still have 2 high caliber rifle round penetrating a concrete wall 15ft above special forces and they didn't even notice 😂.

Also is the type of suppressor. There’s cone, integral, and wiper of which the wiper is the quietest. It also wears out because the bullet rubs on the rubber wipers. Then there is the movie pillow used to suppress the shot.

[@michaelcrafton9821]

Suppressors have been around since approximately 1908. Well before the 1934 fiasco of a law took place.

Many PCP air rifles today come with integrated suppressors along with being threaded for another suppressor. And most pellets like being sub-sonic. Those can get movie quiet easily. And don't be fooled into thinking an air rifle isn't deadly.

I used to live in an area that had a sizeable rat population. We had a Karen that called the cops if she heard a gun go off. SO Using a single shot, bolt action .22 firing 22 shorts and with a baby nipple over the end of the barrel, it "was" movie quiet.

[@stefanmolnapor910]

Thanks for the tip!

[@shermrock345]

Really a baby nipple from a baby bottle? Well I'll be. And it's not even close to anything that the ATF would consider a suppressor it doesn't have any of the parts that are required by a rule that they made themselves. I got my eye on a Henry .22lr pump gallery gun because it's shoots shorts, Longs, and long riffles. And sits a better quality than the Rossi one. What did you do wire it on there or duct tape it on or something?

There's no such thing as a sound "barrier". We've been fed that term since jet engine technology and aircraft design allowed flight speed exceeding that of sound in the atmosphere. The projectile produces a pressure wave that can be heard by humans as a crack, bang or boom, depending on the size and shape of the projectile. As aircraft were flown at supersonic velocity, the shockwave was given the name "sonic boom." Decades ago, there were very few dealers in class 3 arms and equipment. Phoenix had J. Curtis Earl and I had a friend who wanted a Tommy gun so I took him to Phoenix to meet Mr. Earl. Since his home was in central Phoenix, firing a Thompson submachine gun in the backyard would be too loud so he brought out a MAC10 with its suppressor and loaded 4 rounds on the magazine. The first round was fired in semiautomatic mode then the switch to full was selected. Each shot was virtually silent, but the bolt slamming was like clapping two bricks together. The rate of fire was so slow that I could distinguish the individual shots. The clapping of the action was loud enough to be able to hear clearly at some distance, making it mostly pointless to use a suppressor.

[@SMS2884]

Facepalm...

[@spinny2593]

If it's not a barrier... then what is it? If it's exceeding that of sound, then it is breaking the speed of sound. What is so wrong with that term?
