I can recommend some equipment for that which uses subsonic ammunition and a single-shot action in the firearm.

I have a shuetzen that shoots subsonic 22 shorts that's pretty quiet.
Interesting article yesterday that I found out about today:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs...=.82f6562e7abf
Then I saw one (was it through here? catching up for the week), about how a police dept. is issuing suppressors to all the police rifles, to save them money on workers comp, as well as lawsuits that happen when one can't hear needed info over the sound of their gunfire, or when civilians get their ears injured because of events around them.

Pretty vague.
It is interesting that the first response to this politically is to target “rate of fire” mechanisms. That’s an amorphous ...easily massaged criterion. Note they don’t specifically go after the bump stock or even “slide fire” by name. That has an ominous feeling to it.
What could be done to study the process by which the person brings themselves to “dehumanize” enough to attack crowds of people?
Are the protectionists purposely keeping the discussion out of the media because I thought there would be an uproar surpassing that of Sandy Hook?
That seems an odd approach, as I can easily change the "rate of fire" of a firearm by using different ammunition, changing springs, muzzle brakes, changing the size of gas ports, and so on. (Indeed, some firearms I own have adjustable gas ports so that you can adapt the firearm to different ammunition.) And I'm not aware that firearms have a legally-specified "rate of fire" at manufacture or design time.
