Best Answer

The ammunition (bullets) is not silenced. A silencer is a device that is placed on the end of the gun barrel to absorb and smother the sound of the explosion when a bullet is fired. It is similar in principle to the silencer system on a car engine, without a silencer the noise from the engine would be deafening.

Can a machine gun have a silencer?

Yes, but normally "submachineguns" (small machineguns that use pistol-caliber ammo) are better to put silencers on, since they use less gunpowder and have lower pressures in the barrel. A real rifle-caliber machinegun CAN be used with a special kind of silencer designed to hold up to the heat and pressure of fully-automatic shooting.


What if you install indore silencer to royal enfield bullet 350cc?

There are different kind of modified silencer apart from the originally supplied (Stock) silencer. Indore silencer is one of them. It produces a decent thumping sound like the one in old bullets, but is not even to much noisy. There are other silencer which do not have any filter (muffler) like the ROCKET SILENCER, which produce much more sound (Noise) as compared to indoor or stock silencer. I have a rocket silencer, but now i am planning to go for indore silencer, as i have heard rocket silencer effects the engine. I hope that hepls... Enjoy thumping..thump..thump..and go for indore silencer
