I these movies you see what happens. They don't seem to explain what happens if a silencer is attached to the hand gun. Does it produce the same effect without a silencer?

I doubt that you know what happens when a gun is fired on an airplane in flight. Movies are wrong. "Goldfinger" started that tale, I suppose. In the book, 007 broke out a window with a shoe heel dagger. Supposedly, someone had been sucked out of a plane in similar circumstances, but that seems to be another urban legend that the "Mythbusters" disproved. In any case, a silencer would have little effect. A gold Colt .38 Special revolver was fired by Goldfinger, and much powder gas escapes in the gap between chamber and barrel. A Russian Moison-Nagant revolver could be silenced better. Best with a silencer is a gun especially made with one, e.g. a Welrod.

A lot of that would depend on the type of gun that is being shot, at what range, where it is being aimed and how new the plane is.
For the sake of reasoning, all a silencer does is muffle the sound, it doesn't do anything to the bullet as it leaves the chamber.

all a silence does is make the sound less then without it...the gun would have the same effect

i don't know what you mean but if you think the plane starts falling apart and people get sucked out you are wrong. nothing major happens and the same even if you did get a silencer. watch mythbusters on the discovery channel, they did this one and it is a good show

nothing but qieting the report by doling the gass out in diffent holes in the silencer. All that comes out of the gun is the gas. When that gas is dispursed over many different holes, it only qiet's down.

A silencer would have no effect on what a BULLET does to a pressurized plane fuselage at high altitude.

gulino is wrong. it decreases volume obviously. but it also decreases power SLIGHTLY. it also makes the gun at least 30% less accurate (probably not as bad in a pistol)

Mythbusters proved you would need a cannon for explosive decompression on an airplane as seen in, say, "Goldfinger"

a silencer only muffles the sound of a gunshot nothing more
