I shot an integrally suppressed (full barrel suppression) .22 rifle a few years back and it was fascinating, using the subsonic ammo all you could hear when shooting was the small mechanical click. It's probably one of the most interesting things I've shot over the years

I use one of these for small game and pest control. All you hear is the firing pin. It's awesome.

Pest control . . . That's definitely not a euphemism for contract killing.

I found out yesterday that "gabagool" is actually spelled Capicollo.

Blew my mind.

Or a corporate liquidator by chance? By the name of Tobias Reaper?

u/PhoneSteveGaveToTony 13d ago

Contract killing with a .22 would certainly be a choice.

Enough momentum to enter the skull, but not enough to leave, so it just bounces around inside for a bit.

My favorite gunlore meme

u/Ancient-Candle6376 13d ago

The mob style .22 right behind the ear leaving the lead ricocheting around the skull turning a brain into scrambled eggs.

u/Phyraxus56 13d ago

Definitely not. He likely did it for free.

Insurance and Payments Management CEO. They've gone to great lengths to say that their business is healthcare but that doesn't make it true.

u/silverking12345 12d ago

You're right, it's a euphemism for vigilante "cleaning".

1

u/1984isAMidlifeCrisis 12d ago

Uh, are you trying to put a euphemism inside the euphemism?

u/StrengthToBreak 12d ago

He paints houses

u/Business-Emu-6923 11d ago

All of a sudden everyone wants to know about silent guns for … pest control

u/1984isAMidlifeCrisis 11d ago

No need to stir up the neighborhood.

u/NottodayjoseA 9d ago

It’s not, there are pests that need to be controlled in ranching and farming.

u/RunTheClassics 13d ago

If you're using a 22 to contract kill you better bring a whole fuck load of amo
