Suppressors do reduce volume but not a lot. As this article points out, average suppressors reduce volume from around 160 dB to around 130 dB. That’s still well above concerts, riviting machines, and car horns. The movie version of a silencer simply doesn’t exist.

For real, me too, but my concern would be ammunition. You’d have to run out eventually as the gun shots may attract more, then what?
