There's only one weapon mod I know that sounds much closer to a real weapon sound - FN P90 - but, unfotunately, it doesn't make any sense in other specs - the range is that of a sniper rifle and the recoil is insane for a gun known to be almost recoilless another problem is that it's inconsistent with all the other weapons (mods included). Not many mod creators (and apparently, game developers) are familiar with ballistics. I'm just really tired of downloading weapon mods and then having to open them in the CK to edit out all of the reduced range crap that isn't realistic and doesn't make a bit of sense whatsoever. Otherwise if using standard ammunition neither the range or damage is affected in ANY way by a silencer. Subsonic ammunition is sometimes used to eliminate the crack of a bullet breaking the sound barrier (which a silencer doesn't affect) to effectively silence the weapon similar to what we see in movies. The only time when effective range would be reduced while using a silencer would be while using sub-sonic ammunition which would also decrease the 'damage' of the weapon. Silencers actually increase overall muzzle velocity. Any attachments have a very minimal effect on muzzle velocity. Effective range is affected by muzzle velocity which is primarily affected by barrel length.
