Where to find the gun silencer in Sons of the Forest
Before visiting the place where the silencer of the pistol is, you must first obtain the shovel. This is an object that allows you to dig the ground in order to discover hidden objects and places. To get the Shovel, you will need the Recycler and the Rope Gun. After acquiring this item from a cave, go to the location shown in the image below.

Once there, look at the ground to see the shovel icon. Dig here and a trapdoor will appear. Open it to access the bunker and go through the corridor. You need to enter the first room that appears on your right, where you will find the gun silencer next to a laptop on a table. To equip the silencer, open your inventory by pressing the ‘I’ key and select your pistol. Now click on the silencer and combine it with your gun.
Although the silencer is not used for the first few days, you will need it later. This is because as you progress through Sons of the Forest, enemies get stronger and will start visiting your base more frequently. When this happens, you’ll need something to help you silently kill your targets, since you don’t want to alert nearby enemies.
