The weirdest thing is not to hear a 'bang' when you expect it!
I was doing loads for my .32-20, 2.5gn Trailboss & 115 gn lead cast, all I heard was the hammer drop on the M92, no kick at all!
I thought I had a miss fire....waited the 30 seconds before ejecting all the while cursing myself on making a dud, but just before doing so looked up at the chronograph - 800fps had registered!
Someone close at the range must have fired exactly the same time I did, completely masking any noise my pip squeak load did!
Yes they do go 'bang' - but much quieter than the full loads, not to bad at the accuracy for those old sights (more my eyes), actually better than the full loads!
Would be fun if you could still legally buy a silencer here in Oz - would only be for small game up like rabbits & possibly taking a dingo at not to far distance maybe 50m.
