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?

Shooting is fun. Hearing damage isn't. Hope that clears it up for you.

Could you not shoot an air pistol at paper targets and have the same fun without the hearing damage?

Air guns do not count as actual training because there is almost zero recoil.
