What in the world are you talking about? To silence any magnum all you have to do is tell it to STFU!

Interesting fact: the spartan version of the magnum is roughly 117% larger than the standard version. I just posted another thread on this.

Thank you sir, that was an epic rendition of this topic.

and how!

What you are referring to is a revolver, not a magnum.

A magnum is a magnum because it fires magnum ammunition, which is just like any other round of ammunition, but with a larger casing and more propellant.

A magnum revolver cannot be suppressed because the cylinder that holds the ammunition doesn't have a perfect seal, allowing gases, "muzzle flash", and sound to escape both from the cylinder and the barrel.

An "automag" that uses magnum ammunition [an automag referring to a handgun loaded from a magazine inserted into the grip of the weapon] can be suppressed just like any other handgun and there are magnum weapons with suppressors available right now, in modern times.


EDIT: I would just like to say, if you don't know anything about firearms, don't say things that you come up with as fact, it just spreads ignorance and makes you look like a jackass when someone who knows what they are saying comments.

Technically "magnum" means big. So magnum pistol means big pistol.

My work here is done.

Go look at the projects page; It has a built in suppressor.

1. It is 2552. I'm reasonably certain that ballistic technologies have advanced since 2009.

2. You can silence any round, given a high quality suppressor and providing the round is subsonic.
