This page describes one of the quick exchangeable weapon tunings.

A big cylinder, added to the end of the barrel, with many small chambers that kind of swallow the gunpowder explosion. Those for pistols are often relatively small, while those for assault and hunting rifles are about 6 cm in diameter and up to 15 cm long.



Requirement: One of these weapons and the already attached tuning threaded barrel.
Handguns:

Rifles:



Requirements for the tuner: No special skills are necessary to attach one.

To produce one, one needs a workshop of Class B1 or better and [Crafting|crafting]] and armorer on at least 65.



Time:

  • To produce the silencer: hours
  • to attach the silencer: 30 seconds



Average price: 400 $

Effect:
The weapon has become a pound heavier and shoots more silently.

Important: The silencer only dampens the sound of the gunpowder explosion – not the sonic boom of the bullet. For total silence, you also need subsonic ammunition.



Special rule: When using both a silencer and subsonic ammunition, enemy sensual acuity tests (checking to see if the shot was heard) are reduced by 30 points.

If only the silencer is used, the reduction lies at 15 points.
