Silent weapons in Hunt: Showdown 1896
In Hunt a gunshot carries far — and every neighbour learns where you are. Silent weapons let you hunt, kill monsters and open a fight without giving away your position. A silencer trims damage and bullet velocity a little (see the table), while bows and crossbows are quiet by nature. Here are our picks and every quiet gun.
🏆 Our top 8
- #1
Hunting Bow
- $57
- 3 slots
- Damage 250
- Muzzle velocity 150 m/s
- Drop range 30 m
Quiet, cheap and with very high arrow damage — the favourite of silent hunters. Arrows are slow and drop early, so it takes practice to lead your shots.

🧰 Open in builder - #2
Crossbow
- $50
- 4 slots
- Damage 246
- Muzzle velocity 150 m/s
- Drop range 20 m
One of the hardest-hitting quiet shots: up close a single bolt often settles it. The reload is long, so it's an ambush weapon, not one for drawn-out fights.

Vetterli 71 Karabiner Silencer
- $150
- 3 slots
- Damage 123
- Muzzle velocity 348 m/s
- Drop range 115 m
The all-round silent rifle: 6+1 rounds, a small spread and only 3 slots. It costs more than the base Vetterli but covers both yards and buildings without giving you away.
Traits: Iron Eye
🧰 Open in builder - #4
Krag Silencer
- $517
- 4 slots
- Damage 113
- Muzzle velocity 518 m/s
- Drop range 130 m
The longest-reaching silenced rifle with a magazine: Special Long with a silencer and 5+1 rounds. Pricey, but it lets you work quietly at medium and long range.

- $159
- 5 slots
- Damage 136
- Muzzle velocity 476 m/s
- Drop range 150 m

Nagant M1895 Silencer
- $27
- 1 slot
- Damage 85
- Muzzle velocity 280 m/s

🧰 Open in builder - #7
Hand Crossbow
- $30
- 1 slot
- Damage 210
- Muzzle velocity 100 m/s
- Drop range 15 m
A quiet single-shot crossbow in 1 slot with a very strong bolt. The range is short, but up close it's a serious argument for very little money.

- 3 slots
- Damage 104
- Muzzle velocity 340 m/s

❓ FAQ
Does a silencer reduce damage?
Yes, a little: silenced variants have lower damage, bullet velocity and range than the base guns. Compare them in the table or with the Compare button on the weapon page.
Can any weapon be made silent?
No. Only some variants come with a silencer. Another option is Subsonic ammo: quieter but slower, and not available for every gun. Check compatibility on the weapon page and in the Ammo section.
Bow or crossbow?
A bow fires far more often and barely needs reloading, but you draw the string before every shot. A crossbow is simpler: load it and fire at the right moment, but there's a long reload between shots.
