Knight's Armament Model R-2 Suppressed Revolver Rifle

Used by a Quiet Willy to shoot the Smoking Man in Episode 5.02 "Redux II" This is the Knight's Armament R2 system. It's a Ruger Super Redhawk modified to having the gap between the ammunition cylinder and the barrel closed. The idea was to create an effect similar to that of the Nagant Revolver. Once this was done, a sound suppressor could be effectively employed. Needless to say, the life of the weapon was rather short as it wore out quickly due to the cylinder grinding down steel when rubbing against the barrel as it turned.
