The S1 silencer reduces recoil by 10% and since the AK-47 recoil is high, the reduction would make those long distance shots much better.  The other silencers (2 and 3) may be only useful if you're sniping.  One reduces muzzle flash and the other reduces the tracer which is only useful if you're being sneaky.  The other situation would be in an S&D match where you have to be a little more cautious.  The silenced shots and muzzler/tracer reduction could be really helpful (Depending on your playstyle).Well, I hope I helped a little bit.  If you have any more questions, feel free to reply to this post, PM me, or add me to xfire layzie7777.</blockquote>
