Revolver?

If so, then it depends on the model. Most can't be silenced due to a minute gap between the cylinder and the barrel, however there have been ones capable of being silenced made (Nagant M1897 or whatever the wheelnugget is, that stetchkin one, and several others)

In essence, odd and not easy, but also not impossible.

Sure just make a big enough suppressor

Can you suppress a minigun?
Is it one of things that you can do, but shouldn't cause it's stupid? I think the suppressors would wear out before long making it useless
>>
>>28055970

You would have to suppress each individual barrel, but it could work.
>>
>>28056032
I would just make one large suppressor with holes drilled for each barrel. Then you'll have more volume in the suppressor.

Also the fact that the mini gun is not a man portable system which means the vehicle it is attached to is going to make a lot of noise. Then you factor in the fact that most mini gun belts are loaded with tracers so you know where you are hitting. Tracers will give away your position so suppression is just a stupid idea.

The GE Six-Pak was portable. Includes gun, battery, and ammo. It's not a good idea, it weighed over 80lb, but it's possible

No OP. You can't silence Jamals magnum condom from making your mom scream.

>Autists getting mad
>Don't know bout Hiram Maxim's silencer brand silencer.

To answer OP, it depends on what you mean by magnum. A traditional revolver is incredibly hard to use silencer effectively because you have a gap between the cylinder and the barrel. There are a couple exceptions where the cylinder will move to meet the barrel though.

As long as there is a good gas seal, there shouldn't be an issue.

Caseless ammo minigun for extreme silence?

This is also not supposed to be taken seriously
>>
>>28055499
so why arent revolvers total shit? In the world of tight tolerances and expanding gas, why does a bullet jumping from chamber to barrel not fuck shit up? Not only because the bullet is unstable for that nanosecond, but it also looses a lot of its charge after the cylinder.
I just dont get it.

Twelvie detected.

>>28061613
>why does a bullet jumping from chamber to barrel not fuck shit up

Timing, concentricity, and the forcing cone.

It's mostly the forcing cone, but the first two squeeze the accuracy edge out for things like insanely expensive target revolvers. The forcing cone alone is usually good enough to get the bullet engaged with the rifling in good alignment.

Also the pressure loss from the cylinder gap really isn't that bad unless it's a fuckhuge sloppy cylinder gap that most manufacturers don't let get that big (they have maximum and minimum specifications) in the first place.

Anyway fuck you wheelguns are cool mane. Go tool with a nicely tuned 686 or 929 sometime, you'll probably like it.

Christ, just imagine if it worked like in the movies. Picture yourself unleashing a column of hell itself, sweeping across the field and pulverizing anything you touch with it, and the only sound you hear is the gentle hum of an electric motor, quiet enough that you can make out the screams of your enemies as they run in terror.
>>
>>28055366
Yes but why the fuck would you?

>>28065182
>and the only sound you hear is the gentle hum of an electric motor
Don't forget the longest mouse fart in history, if we're talking hollywood silencers.
>>
>>28061653
It's true that you lose quite a bit of power between the cylinder and the barrel, but not enough gas can leak quickly enough. The air around the gun has to compress out of the way, and that takes a fraction of a second. Most of the force still happens goes down the barrel.
>>
>>28055970
Been done, google it.
It's not more wear than a regular full auto 308 rated suppressor, because it's basically one of those per barrel. Though the six can be constructed as one piece to be only one stamp.
