mp5 sd any quieter than other suppressed sub machine guns in game?

Or has this changed not happened yet?

I use this with an ACOG all the time. Puppets within 15 to 20 meters can hear it, but, overall, it doesn't attract a lot of attention. I've been hunting for a UMP-45 to do comparisons, but no luck, yet.

I don't think any suppressed weapon is any quieter then any other. Unrealistic for sure. But I've used a hunter85 suppressed and an m1garand suppressed... They had the same exact "aggro range" for puppets. And people can hear weapon fire farrrr away even suppressed (as it should be)

That's good to know... and, yes, supersonic rounds will still have a report. The suppressor just makes it more difficult to pinpoint where the shot came from. It would be nice to have subsonic .45 rounds for the UMP-45.

Hello, MP5SD should have same level of suppression as rest of the MP5s that you can equip suppressor on.

Will this change, in the future? I'm not a master of suppressor technology, but from what i've heard myself, some setups are much quieter than others, IRL. Not referring specifically to just MP5 variants, but suppressed firearms of all types.

45ACP is subsonic in general. It should be the most silent round in the game.

Well, russian 9x39 is subsonic too, by design.

I thought there were subsonic and supersonic variants. Okay.

You can get 45ACP supersonic if you drop bullet weight from 230gr to ~180gr. It's just pointless from a practical point.

In 180gr range there is plenty of good 40SW bullets. Go a bit lighter to 147gr and there is a good 9mm hollow point selection (9mm standard weight is 115gr). Grain is 0.065 grams.

Basically it's all about muzzle energy. For a handgun to be controllable and reasonably light at the same time, you have to balance bullet mass with bullet velocity. You can get large bullet go slow or small bullet go fast.

45ACP advantage is that it is a large bullet with a good terminal effect and it is easy to shoot.

All the magnums pushing heavy bullets at stupid velocities require some non-ordinary training.

Like ingame DE 50AE should be very hard to shoot accurately without advanced pistol skill and some upper body strength.

There is possibility of changes in the future for supressed weapons.
But to add on yes there is subsonic and supersonic variants already in.
