Yeah, it reduces damage and range. Its the type of suppressor that you use normal bullets with. The suppressor slows down the round as it passes through the suppressor, bringing it down to subsonic speeds so there is no sonic crack. And as usual, it baffles all the gasses and lets them cool before they leave the barrel so there is no loud blast. You still get a hellish "crack" from the gas ports though. No way to suppress that.
It would be nice if we could buy special subsonic cartridges with heavier bullets that would give us the same range and damage but not go beyond the speed of sound.
Maybe in real life. But in the game there is no range/damage loss. Look at the link I posted, those values are taken directly from the game files.
