Question: Home made silencer (Short Story Research)
I am writing a short story!. There is a protagonist with a very limited amount of resources at his disposal locked in a very unhappy situation!. He has gotten a hold of a gun and I want to find a way within the items I have in the enviroment in the story for him to be able to jimmy-rig some type of home-made silencer for use with the gun he got in the story!.
Is there a "Logical" way to put that together with basic items!. For example right now I have him having access to a sheet!. Since his limited resources are there!.!.!.then I can probably find a way to explain how he could get other basic items!. Maybe a fork or spoon!. A pillow or something!. Any advice!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
