Not a dumb question. I've never really thought about it but I suppose it could help the felt recoil slightly. As the gases work there way through the baffles it could act as a break. The suppressor does not weigh a lot but it is more weight out at the end of the barrel with could help with the upward recoil. I've only shot my suppressed .22 and they don't kick much to start. Maybe someone with else can chime in.

...right, that's "suppression".

I don't care about the hearing of some goblin who's invaded my home and is attacking my family. I do care a great deal about my hearing and the hearing of my family members, and if my wife were pregnant I would care a great deal about the development of the fetus. I will admit that electronic hearing protectors by your bedside are a good idea, but they do not address all aspects of the problem.

Can you provide me with a better reason for a silenced shooter?
Did you even read the rationale section of the link I posted?

In addition, please justify why, if it is not used in the commission of a crime, it should be unlawful to use a suppressor. There are uses that don't involve the commission of a crime - if it is legal to do x without a suppressor, it should be legal to do x with a suppressor. Just because you can only see it being used by assassins, does not mean that's the only use.

I thought it was just proper etiquete when one settles into ones hotel room to quietly screw the supressor onto the barrel of the PPK and place it on the table while sipping the propperly shaken Vodka martini just in case one has to dispose of an unwelcomed visitor, which apparently happens quite often.

Uhhhh ... or I guess you could consider locking the door next time Mr. Bond .

I've shot a suppressed MP5 (full auto) and a suppressed 9mm pistol. having never shot an unsilenced MP5 I really can't compare that one to anything. but with having the silencer on the 9mm I would have to say that the recoil did feel softer.
