You can get a lethal weapon with no sound in a silenced .22 firing subsonic ammo. You have to be close or a fantastic shot for it to be lethal. (This is basically a hitman's gun. Think shooting someone in the back of the head at point blank range.) The only noise is the clink of the hammer going down and the slap of the bullet hitting the target. It's hard to get a silencer legally, though. (You can't even make one or sell plans to make one in the US.) And the range thing is limiting.

Oh, not looking for lethality. I think there could be a market for a distracting weapon.

  Distracting weapon? Have you looked at sound or light based weapons?

    Well, distracting in that the pain makes them pause so I can run the hell away. Sometimes that's the best course of action. Inflicting permanent injury is always a last resort.

It's actually relatively easy to legally purchase a sound suppressor in the U.S. All it takes is a few hundred bucks for the can and a $200 transfer fee to the TTB along with background check and fingerprints. Paperwork takes a while, is all.
