It depends on the model. Some of the AAC ones have baffles that slide out all together, some have individual baffles that must be removed and reinserted in a specific order, and some have baffles that are permanant, and held in place with dimples on the outside of the can. If you're using it on a 9mm, you should stick with subsonic rounds, anything over 147grains and not +P should keep it quieter.
This advice, of course, should only be taken if you truly do own a legal silencer. Anything else could be hazardous to your life or freedom.

If you don't have a disassembly tool, I recomend this method.
remove the supressor from the gun, plug one end with a small cork, and pour in a few ounces of bore solvent. Put your finger over the other end and shake well. Drain the solvent and associated residue, and pour in a couple of ounces of gun oil, and repeat. Depending on the brand of supressor, if it's effectiveness has decreased, The end wipes may need to be replaced. A class 3 dealer can get these and put them in for you. The replacement parts are not subject to an additional tax stamp.
I don't know what everybody elses problem here was today.
If the'd use their heads for a minute, they'd realize there are hundreds of thousands of registered supressors in the US, including legally inherited ones that the inheritor may have little technical knowlege of.
Never use cast lead bullets, soft point bullets, or hollowpoints in a supressor. Ball ammo ONLY. Sub-sonic ball ammo will give best noise-reduction qualities.

I will tell you the little that I know, but if you really do own one, I have to emphasize that this would have been a good thing to have discussed with the seller prior to the purchase as that each brand is slightly different. You wouldn't want to ruin that precious piece of equipment you forked out a pile fo cash for.
Sadly I can't tell you disassembly because it is completely depend upon model and how it is constructed.
As far as ammo, the best advice is practice with what you intend on normally using in it. Supression devices work best with sub-sonic ammo, anything else defeats the purpose of a suppressor.

A lot of Hi-point haters on here. I use the Winchester FMJ's in mine and have never had a problem. Nothing at all wrong with a gun that is made in Ohio, has a lifetime warranty, and costs less than $150.

If he has one (which i doubt), I bet it's fake like the ones you can thread on the end of an 'uzi' lol. Basically a barrel extension.

If you really had one you would know this already...You have to be 21 and have a Federal BATF Tax Stamp to legally own one, and live in a state that allows them. Sorry, but I'm not buying this story...
