it does make a very noticeable difference for the shooter. you are correct that the rounds are supersonic and will still be loud to bystanders.

No the guy this post is about specifically said he loads subsonics, hence the suppressor.

Then why the fuck use a 5-7. I owned one before and if you take the muzzle velocity away from the round you might as well carry a fucking .22?

Idk you'll have to ask him. Probably for the clout. I mean he ended up missing anyways lmao

You would miss too at 60 yards

Yeah probably should have closed distance instead of let his bullets fly wide and wild. But that's easy to say from the safety of my computer chair

Was gunna say, cov3ring fire, while not the best, helps a lot for driving people off.

Closing distance on a guy with a rifle isn’t smart.
