Somewhere I have read that the Mossad used special, .22lr rounds with a reduced charge (and, thus, adjusted springs) in order to reduce the sound signature of the Beretta 70s used by its assassins (unfortunately I couldn't retrieve the source). Does anybody have any more information on that issue and, in any case, would it make sense? A 22lr out of a pistol is already quite weak, and still it will be quite loud even if the charge is reduced...
