There’s more to it than that. Outdoor shooting with no ear pro, NV, ability to have a shorter barrel without the insane additional loudness. I actually bought my first suppressor (.30 cal) out of respect for my neighbor. Gunshots scare her to death and I like filling my freezer off the back porch. Rimfire suppressors are an absolute blast to plink with and a great way to ease kids into the sport of shooting and maybe even hunting.
