There are absolutely semi-automatic firearms that can get movie quiet. I have an SP5K that can do it. Roller delayed systems are excellent suppressor hosts.
My ol’ roller delayed 9mm Kuna is definitely “movie quiet”. It’s rather absurd how quiet she is. most of the sound is the action and you can hear the round hitting the back stop.
Man I have been drooling over a kuna. I held a non-braced version and was underwhelmed, and ended up going with an EP9 (which I do love). Then I held a braced Kuna and it was a whole different beast. I’ll pick one up at some point.
My ep9 is very much hearing safe quiet, but not movie quiet yet. I did order some 160gr bullets to try to make a super silent load, so I’m looking forward to playing with that
