Is a PC term to appease the left so they aren't "scary". Fuck that.
No. Its the actual terminology based on function.
It reduces the noise signature (muzzle report) and visible flash generated by the gun’s firing. Suppressors are typically constructed of a metal cylinder with internal baffle components to slow and cool down the escaping propellant gas and thus decrease the sound intensity of the muzzle blast. A suppressor only reduces the volume of supersonic ammo by about 30 decibles.
That won't exactly be silencing anything that isn't a .22 and even then you'll still hear it.
To be fair, there are a couple that could qualify as "silencers" but it's mostly super-specialist stuff that reduces the functionality of the firearm, as I understand it - stuff like the Welrod and the US equivalent.
