In McCarthy's book, the shotgun was described as "...a twelve gauge Remington automatic with a plastic military stock and a parkerized finish. It was fitted with a shopmade silencer fully a foot long and big around as a beercan." The film is set in 1980 and therefore a Model 1100 would be correct. The 11-87 was introduced in 1987, so it's anachronistic, but, that's what was used. The film's armorers were able to get the shotgun to cycle blank shells, and the silencer really wasn't an actual silencer, but here's the real thing: | ||

There was a Glock in the book and film as well...small detail misses that only people like us notice. Not that anybody cares, but No Country for Old Men is probably my all time favorite film and the book is excellent as well. | |||

Cool! SilencerCo made a shotgun suppressor called the Salvo, not sure if they are still being made but they don't sell well. I think there is still one available locally. I think it's a really cool concept and the fact that it works with shot is crazy. I think they used internal guides to keep the wadding together. https://silencerco.com/silencers/salvo-12/ So as a concept it IS very doable, but I don't think it sounds like a raygun, or a cough like the book said, like Chigurh's... | |||
