1. No. If a truck says it gets 22 mpg, it may be 24, it may be 12. Tons of variables, don't pay much attention to that number.
2. More than 2. Reduce concussion, audio report, visual signature (flash and debris both), reduce recoil.
3. Yes and no. Not exactly, but kind of. It depends on the silencer.
4. Not exactly. Case by case basis.
5. Close. Most are designed for specific pressures in conjunction with bore size and necessary functions for the host type. Pistol silencers are often larger than rifle silencers.
6. Depends on the silencer. Some yes, some no.
7. Nope. If you don't want to be on a list, you're too late my friend.
8. Yes, kind of, but that's a misleading statement. The report from the muzzle is the loudest part, which the silencer takes care of. Action and supersonic crack are two other noises. A bolt action removes one of these, but is normally only more quiet to a specific spot in space. (IE, shooter's ear)
Quick Disconnect vs. Direct Thread is only an argument with people who are inexperienced. It's like trying to argue about a Glock 17 versus a Glock 26. They're different tools for different jobs. A hammer isn't better or worse than a screwdriver, unless you're using a screwdriver to pound in nails.... and that's wronger than two boys... nevermind.
