The name came back in the 1980s, when the US Air Force requested a suppressor for use with the M9 Beretta in its pilots&#8217; survival kits. Knight&#8217;s Armament developed a design that used a clever and very quick snap-on attachment method. It was a wipe-based suppressor, with a functional lifespan of about 25 rounds. The pistols were fitted with slide lock levers to further reduce the sound of firing. Approximately 3,800 were supplied to the Air Force, and a few years ago, the company sold about 188 of them on the civilian market.<\/p>\n<p>In practice, this combination is indeed extremely quiet. The report of the shot definitely became louder over the course of about 20 rounds fired, though.<\/p>\n<p>Contact:<br \/>\nForgotten Weapons<br \/>\n6281 N.
