For a suppressor to be more effective, choose low velocity ammo. Ammo that has speeds under the speed of sound can be muffled almost to the point that not even dogs can ear it. .45 ACP is a common low speed ammo by nature.

Barring single-shot weapons and certain shotguns, all military and many civilian weapons use detachable magazines (Not to be confused with clips.) In a firefight,le would throw away their magazines along with their brass. But without the proper magazine for your weapon, it may turn your firearm from a combat-ready assault rifle into a single-shot gun useful for no more than hunting. Should you choose a civilian firearm, be wary of proprietary magazines, magazines that were manufactured only for that weapon, and are incompatible with all others, also keep several magazines and a box of ammunition in your pack at all times. Because similar-sounding diameter of a bullet does not mean it works with another gun
