I'm not thinking of anything!

In the back of my mind I knew that silencers don't work that way, but the scene just worked so well.

they weren't TOO far off actually. You can buy suppressors that make the gun about as loud as a loud cough (if you use subsonic ammo) in a crowded subway station it wouldn't be too easy to detect if you didn't know what to listen for.

I mean it's obviously unrealistic to think they'd remain unnoticed in that scene, but technically you could fire off some subsonic suppressed shots and not have it be too much louder than the background noise.

If you notice here, the metal targets being hit are quite a bit louder than the pistol firing.

absolutely yes. subsonic ammo is subsonic largely because it uses a heavier projectile, not because it has a significantly reduced powder charge behind it. it's approximately the same amount of kinetic energy, just slower moving

John Wick 3 best be "THE WARRIORS" (The Wickiers?)

John, Common and Ruby Rose are all on the run with bounties on their heads and they have to bop their way across America to some "safe zone" and just wreck gangs of wackily themed assassin gangs along the way.
