So your trekking across the Mojave....

The term is suppressed. :eng101:

Silencers are a thing of movie, in reality you buy suppressors. Then load your gun with 'cold' or 'quiet' ammo. If you really wanna be quiet.

Also, suppressors are indeed a thing of movies, because in Europe most countries ban them or require special premission to use, wich in fact ban them too.

In Australia they are banned, in US they are permitted but you have to pay extra fees ($200.00), except some states wich ban them.
In Brazil and most South America countries they are banned.

anyone with a basic machine shop, even one in the wasteland could make a suppressor, but you are correct, that in many if not most places they are prohibited.

However, post wasteland military stocks and private production would not be limited. I am sure the gun Runners would know how to make them, unless the NCR prohibits them.

They are probably too busy making sure hordes of cosplaying cannibals don't eat them to worry about that.

Except England allows them. Sweden too. A lot of the nations with backwards ass gun laws realize that they can heavily reduce noise pollution and generally protect people's ears and that's a good thing.

The NCR may just feel that it's a waste of material to work on suppressors for the most part and thus avoid it. IT'd be a cool mod to make them ass attachments for most/all guns and also make "cold" reloading recipes.

Ooh that's tricky, but I am gonna say I would wear an advanced radiation suit, for protection from rads (duh) and it gives fairly good armour, on my back I would have a trail carbine, because it fits with the cowboy stuff of the mojave, pkus its a good gun, and at my holster a HD frame 44 magnum and a silenced 12.7mm pistol
