Also, AFAIK, they didn't use subsonic ammo either... Denoir, are you sure that silencers don't reduce accuracy? I have read before that they do, the absorbption of the excess gasses causes the barrel to jump...<span id='postcolor'> A silencer reduces the gas pressure therefor the velocity of the round. Slower bullets are less accurate.

Have you seen the playing card that has a bullet passing through it, side on? Its in the Guiness Book of Records I think.

It hasn't failed, it is just a disadvantage of the type.
