It is said to be a "veterinary gun." That was a bit of a head scratcher to me, not realizing that guns were part of their usual practice or that they need to be silenced. I'm guessing it's for large animals & so as not to upset the others. It's a good thing doctors don't often use guns on patients.

In fact there's really no reason to use that gun at all. It's way more expensive than buying a normal .45 and putting a suppressor and a lighter recoil spring on it. If you know what a B&T is you'll know how to put a lighter recoil spring in a Glock or a 1911 or whatever for subsonic.

You are correct. But, I was just stating what the model was. I don't know if that was just the pistol he stole, or bought it.

So if I am hiring someone to kill a guy I am probably going to think about buying the assassin this kind of gun. It's not a gun that a normal thug would use. There are plenty of .45s on the market threaded for suppressors you could also use as a carry gun.

Correct. In fact, "theoretically, of course" if i was wanting to off someone, a ghost gun would be the best bet. (yes they are still easily available) Simply shoot the guy, and drop the gun. The old time mafia used to do that with cheap revolvers.
