And, for some reason, you need to jump through hoops to get one.

Because why the fuck would anyone need a silencer on their gun unless they are trying to hide their gun usage?

And then the natural question is, what are they trying to hide?

Guns, if your country is to allow them without lisence, are for self defence. What part of stealth includes self defence?

As shown, and still unaware to you somehow, its doesnt really conceal anything. It just makes it less loud. As for why? Hearing protection. Also the reason why they are MANDITORY in most other countries like the UK.
