To date, I know of no firm making a shotgun silencer, or if one can be made.

Sorry to say shotgun slugs dont have a long range and are extremely inaccurate. The slug drops 4.8 inches at 100 yards. I am sure that if you pointed the gun at an extremely high angle you could maybe launch it 400 yards.

Stick a 2 liter soda bottle on the end, I saw this in a movie once - It's called a poor man's silencer

I almost got shot with a shotgun that went off while it was being clean , the person who was cleaning it didn't know there was a shell still in the gun and he pulled the trigger he had it aim at my head when it went off I was really lucky that day because just as it went off I dropped something and bent down to pick it up , it just missed me and blew out the window

I recommend a real gun, but don't shoot em.\n\nShoot up in the air to scare em

you can shoot slugs only if you have an improved cylinder choke or a cylinder choke . modified chokes are a little tight to shoot slugs with and DO NOT shoot slugs from full chokes the barrel might split.

If you go to a place that sells hunting/shooting supplies, you can get earplugs that go inside the ears.  They are designed for use while shooting (which can be quite loud!) so they should filter out a lot of noise.

It depends on the area you're buying it in.  Silencers are ILLEGAL in the US.  Of course that doesn't mean you can't find them, just that they are illegal.

Look into Gemtech and AAC.  Both of them make good suppressors that can be purchased legally, thru licensed dealers with the appropriate NFA tax stamp.  I suggest you get a threaded suppressor rather than an internal suppressor since that way, you can use it any weapons you own with matching threads on the barrel.

use ultrasonic machine... the sound waves should shatter it to smithereens

It is too bad we can not have more answers like the good ones sunsandsurf and havgunwillotravel provided instead of the of the moronic ones provided by blessed_thang’s, special ed, and vinster.\n\nThere are no federal laws banning machine guns or silencers in the USA.  As long as you have the ATF form 1 or 4, pay the one time $200 tax and live in one of the 35 states (for silencers) including Florida that allow them, then you are fine.\n\nA good thing to do is visit the sites I have listed below.  Those forums are a good source for information on choosing a silencer for an ar15.  Understand however that you will not see anything less noisy than about 130 decibels when shooting standard ammo in an ar15.  Pulling the trigger on an empty chamber results in about 100 decibels.  Because the noises associated with firearms are impulse noise, they do not seem as loud to the human ear, and the pain threshold (140 db) is much higher than for longer duration noise.  A high quality sound meter and microphone capable of less than 20 micro second response time is needed to accurately detect the noise from a firearm.  The decibel scale is logarithmic.  3 db is 2 times the noise, 10db, ten times, 20 db 100 times and so on.\n\nCheck out Soundtech, Gemtech, ACC, YHM, HTG, KAK SWR and others for silencers for the ar15.\n\nTo actually buy a silencer, first go to a licensed dealer and check them out.  Pay for it (usually $300-$1000), then bring the ATF form 4 that the dealer gives you to your local sheriff and ask him/her to sign it.  Obtaining the signature can be the hardest part as some sheriffs refuse to sign.  It may help to call or write ahead of time and ask for an appointment.  Be ready to explain the law if the sheriff thinks for some reason that silencers are illegal in the USA or Florida.  Be polite even if you are refused a signature.  If the sheriff does not sign, then other law enforcement may be able to.  Find out more by posting on www.subguns.com .  As a last resort, you can incorporate and have the silencer belong to that corp.  You still have to file all of the paperwork, and pay the tax, but the sheriff’s signature is not required.\nAfter getting the form 4 signed, bring it back to the dealer, he will send it in the ATF.  Wait 1-6 months for approval, then pick up the silencer and take it home to enjoy.\n\nI build my own suppressors using ATF form 1's.  Lots of fun.\n\nJust getting a silencer that enables you to shoot without earmuffs and not cause hearing loss is a good goal.  Forget everything Hollywood has ever shown about silencers and you will be ahead.\n\nRanb

With a question like that you might want to give it up for a while. Orrrr, put a joint in the barrel of a gun and pull the trigger, it would save me from having to answer anymore questions from you.

its not as effective as you may think, your gonna need to be able to hear the other person over the noise. may i suggest standing next to an older running generator, as the noise both audible and inaudible should scramble a long range mic.\n\nbut as stated above try moving the conversation to a more secure area, be it in a large drainage pipe, or a vehicle. any place is more secure than out in the open

USE SLUGS NOT BUCK SHOT!!!!!

what is your point (Loudest)?? I am under the impression that a 12 gauge shot sound would be the same if you fired a slug or buckshot..or bird shot for that matter..Wouldn't the sound be determined by the amount/weight of the load..and commerically I think they are all the same for the type of round you get..Good question..maybe I'll got out today and see which of the 3 types of shots are the loudest..Good Luck

They are legal to own and use! You have to purchase a silencer  from a class III licensed dealer, pay the $200 tax to the BATF to transfer it into your name and abide by all of the laws and regualtions that pertain to a NFA item such as this.  Thats the condensed version, but you sure can.
