I'm not saying there were no silenced rifles and submachine guns at all during the war, but they were highly experimental, did not see much active service, and for the most part did not work well (they weren't much more quiet, they had a much reduced range, and/or they led to the gun being severely damaged over time). Vapenation:Well, atleast the weapons were real. (Suppressed Sten Mk IIS were also a thing, and MK 5.)Ĭonsidering the scope of the Sniper Elite games, it would make sense that Fairburne would have access to some of these things, as he is a highly specialized member of British Naval Intelligence, probably under the OSS, and it is a work of fiction based upon some real life thing. 1911's still kick like a mule when you fire them though. 45 ACP is inherently sub sonic, unlike rounds like the 9mm parabellum.

They were usefull but slowed the bullets, so its only used for more High powered Rifles. Well, atleast the weapons were real.Īnd its true, acatualy there was no such thing as Suppresors, but instead Scilencer. If Sniper Elite 4 has such nonsense, then it sounds like they dumbed down the game to make it more accessible for the not so smart players. Both weapons are present in Sniper Elite 3, although the latter only through DLC. Notable exceptions are the British Welrod pistol and the High Standard HDM pistol employed by the OSS. Originally posted by Cathulhu:Well, this is mainly down to the fact that silenced weapons were pretty much non-existent back in World War 2.
