     | Can you slide lock a 1911 with a suppressor I'm looking at a way if possible to lock the slide on a 1911 so that it can be manually cycled but have the slide not make noise when the pistol is fired, trying to get a 45 down to the minimum noise.

| I have heard of this before, but I don't know much about it. I was told about it by a family friend who I interviewed for a project my senior year. He said the seals used to use something like that for the same reasons. Tagged to see what comes up.

 | You CAN...yes. As to what device one would use...I have no idea. Ain't enough room next to the hammer to use your thumbs. I know that some older .22LR pistols had slide-locks on them to keep noise to a minimum. And I have it on very very very good authority that a fellow INGO'er is working on devising a bolt lock for a rather popular line of .22LR rifles... But to your specific question, OP, I'm just as ignorant. -J-

| I wish I could remember where I saw it, but I read on another forum of a guy who swore that you could hold your thumb tight to the back of the slide, and that would prevent it from cycling. ( I do not think this is a good idea, only one persons thoughts on the subject) The only one I have ever heard of was on a beretta 92, and I cant even tell you for certain how it actually locked the slide. |

| Several pistols have had this done over the last several decades including the Vietnam Era Mk22 Mod1 "hush puppies" and the KAC M9's. The KAC M9had a spring mechanism that actually unlocked the slide after each shot to minimize the time it took the operator to manually cycle the next round. No one currently makes a pistol that I know of with this feature and it isn't really a drop in kit you can buy since a lot of machine work has to be done. It would be cool but probably cost prohibitive to have it done to a pistol. KAC won't even admit they still make it for Special Operations Group.

| In my mind before I saw it, I was thinking you could do something like on that Beretta. Depending on your skills, you could also probably mill a hole through the slide near the back that would notch the frame rail so you could insert a blocking key. I'd want to use someone else's 1911 and a remote triggered Ransome rest to test it, though!
