Social can be very good in the tradition camo way; dark jeans, black shoes and a grey hooded top blend in in any dark area well.

I was opping the other day, halfway across a fence as someone was walking 20m away from me and they didn't notice.

It really has nothing to do with the heat, just the expansion from the explosion. The basic laws of physics and heat resistance means that the silencer would barely cool the air at all, probably 10°C max, which would really not make any difference to volume. The bit that does make a difference lets...

I take Ginkgo Bibloba every day and find that helps with concentration and memory retention.

If anything, an energy drink such as rockstar or relentless would be good as they contain a balanced amount of B vitamins, taurine, ginseng and caffeine.
