Making your own projectile out of builder's sand (rougher than beach sand) and epoxy is easy enough for any re-loader to do, is completely frangible (breaking up after impact) so untraceable to the weapon. Even suppressed with a professionally made 'silencer,' a firearm isn't 'silent,' despite what Hollywood would have us believe. Especially inside a tiled bathroom. Using a roll of toilet paper, while seemingly a good idea, doesn't 'do' what a suppressor does, which is slowly dissipate the gasses. A roll of toilet paper would be too compressed to do that. Next, if the weapon is a semi-automatic, the sound of the slide cycling would be pretty loud inside a tiled bathroom too. And please, please, please... if you choose to use a revolver, do NOT make the mistake that so many authors do; there are only two or three revolvers that EVER were made with a manual safety release, and they are quite rare to see.
