Silencers (actually called suppressors), really only work on semi-auto weapons, or bolt action rifles...

My bad. Actually, the 22cal PISTOL was a semi-automatic that was the popular one in the old days for silencing. Don't know why I said revolver, other than as a replacement for the term "pistol." Today, you can get a permit for a silencer and they have come a long way in technology.
