OK, those who think about CS with the m4a1 with a silencer are actually RIGHT, the silencer on the m4a1 does allot more than kill 35db thank you very much, the figure is more like 50 to 60 db difference. And do you know how bloody loud 165 DB's is??? your fricken crazy if you think its that loud, thats like instant deafness if your less that 10 metres away from it FFS!!!!!!!!!........ try maybe 130 - 140 db....... And unless you can give me an OFFICIAL site that says 165 db's your full of it........
Wow, the little sh1t is cute. Must be a really bad comedian.
Lets see:
In the 2001 edition of "Special Weapons for Military & Police" magazine, #14.
In an article entitled "TAC-ORD M4 5.56mm" by Al Paulson it states:
"Two kinds of ammunition were used for the testing: (1) Black Hills 62-grain FMJ, which has similar accuracy and sound signature characteristics to M855 military ball ammunition and (2) EBR 53-grain Ultra-Stealth Subsonic ammunition, which is designed NOT to cycle the action in order to eliminate the clatter of action noise when absolutely maximum stealth is required."
"Unsuppressed sound pressure levels (SPLs) were measured one meter to the left of the muzzle, while suppressed levels were measured one meter to the left of the suppressor. Reported decibel levels represent the mean (average) of 10 shots."
The silencer used was the latest model from the Tactical Ordnance and Equipment Corporation, the Model MS-556.
And the performance test:
Black Hills 62gr FMJ **()** EBR 53gr Ultra- Stealth Subsonic
SPL, unsuppressed 164dB **()** 151dB
SPL, suppressed 134dB **()** 115dB
Net sound reduction 30dB **()** 36dB
And so you see lawsy you little snot nosed green horn, every now and then disconnect from your favourite counter-strike server and smell the burnt cordite of reality.
Or some day, you might just get hurt, boy.
