How do I make a gun quieter?

You can quiet a gun by: reducing the muzzle velocities; adding silencers or mufflers; using sound-absorbing materials on the barrel; and/or changing the type of ammunition to subsonic ammo. Each of these approaches will have its own tradeoffs with regards to accuracy, range and sound level and you should consult a gun expert to discuss the best options for your particular gun.

How do I make a gun quieter?
user
Making a gun quieter requires careful engineering and craftsmanship. One way to make a gun quieter is by adding silencers to the gun. Silencers absorb the sound of the gun firing, making the gun's noise level closer to the sound of a firecracker. Additionally, gunsmiths can create a device that fits around the barrel known as a “silencer cone.” This reduces the muzzle blast when the gun is fired, making it less loud. Gun makers can also use special manufacturing techniques to reduce gun sounds. For example, modern guns use titanium alloys and special composite materials to minimize vibrations and noise. Additionally, gun makers can use an advanced technique where a laser is used to attach specially-designed felt pads which reduce noise and vibrations.
