   If covered? Could a bunch of condoms on the end of a gun silence it somewhat?

   if you can cover the end of the gun with about a freighter full of condoms...and the listener is about two miles away...and the wind is blowing in the opposite direction...the gun would be silenced somewhat

   it's still going to burst out, maybe if you had like a super condom that inflated to 40 cubic feet and used ten of them, you could somewhat make a subsonic shot quieter? i say try it out bro, never a bad time to put ideas to the test

   If they were reinforced rubbers, and there were a thousand of them on there, and you had cut the tips off every one, absolutely.
