Getting his hands on an illegal can wouldn't be a problem. That would be much easier than trying to build a functional/effective can. It's more likely he was shooting subsonic ammo. A lot of guns won't cycle subsonics unless you tune them up. All my handguns that I use cans on are tuned up for subsonic ammo. He knew at the first shot the gun wouldn't cycle, it didn't come as a surprise to him. So obviously the guy knew very little about the mechanics of weapons. All he knew was how to point, pull the trigger and wrack the slide.
Yeah, what you said. He looked to be familiar enough with that gear that it came as no surprise to him when it failed to eject and cycle, like he'd rehearsed it a few times first. Since there is no sound with the video, it's speculation as to whether the rounds were subsonic or not...could be. But as you probably know, a .22 LR is going to be a LOT harder to engrave something on the casing than a 9mm casing.
Guess we'll have to wait to see the full report, if it ever becomes available. And illegal suppressors are just about everywhere. I've seen them sold as "solvent traps" at gun shows, some assembly required. They all come threaded for the standard threaded barrels on a lot of pistols and .22 rifles out there. Never wanted to mess with them because why alert the 8TF (kek) to your activities?
