      It depends on what you shoot, also. A subsonic 22lr will sound like an airgun. A 55gr 5.56 (common to AR-15s) will still be loud as shit from the sonic boom.

      Agree. A 9mm with a nice suppressor? All I can hear is the “action” of the gun: Click. Click. Click.

      Compared to…?

      It’s extremely quiet compared to shooting a gun without a silencer. Sure, but guns are incredibly loud.
