Pulpmeister, just an FYI that there are a few revolvers than can be effectively suppressed but an author should mention the model.

There is an old Nagant M1895 that uses a moving gas seal to close the gap.

There is a special version of the S&W 625 called a PSDR 3 made for German SWAT teams, designed just 25 years ago. It looks a bit like a Buck Rogers weapon because it is encased in a "shell."

Knights Armament (KAC) made a modified Ruger Super Redhawk for the U.S. military but it is in the form of a rifle (the purpose is no ejected brass).

There is a modified S&W model 29 designed for Vietnam war "tunnel rats." I have seen photos but it is unclear how they deal with noise from the cylinder gap.

But yes, I am a gun nut, lol. I have sent correction requests to Robert Ludlum's publisher in years past.
