Like the Lays chips commercial "You can't eat just one", shooting a suppressed gun is hard to stop. I took the 10/22 out to test run a couple of replacement magazines and ended up running through 1/2 box of ammo. I probably would have finished the box but my phone rang and even suppressed, it's hard to shoot while talking on the phone.
You can't shoot just one.

You can't own just one, either. I just recently got the tax stamp for my 4th silencer, a Dead Air Mask.

Shooting a silenced gun left handed will make you want to stop after a while.
That's the only downside I can think of.
Other than that, I love the thump of silenced 45.
Try loading your own and making a powder puff round and run it through a suppressor. That's real cool. It's pretty close to the movie pew pew, especially if the action doesn't cycle. Just be careful that the bullet really cleared the barrel.

I find myself reluctant to leave the range, even with my loud guns... 
I don't own any silencers... I just prefer the bang to the pfft... besides you ever seen folks crowding around the shooters with a muzzle brake?
Nope, they are all hovering around the folks with the cans... I like my space!

9x19,
Keep in mind that some public libraries have shooting ranges attached to them. They only allow you to shoot with a silencer.

Honestly, anything in the NFA realm is really fun. Only suppressed gun I've shot was a Glock 17, but with standard ammo. Even without subsonic, the sound was very interesting and it was just very cool.

Shooting an MP5 was way cooler, though.

Down the road, I'd like to get maybe a beat to crap Chinese SKS and do a scout-type scope mount for the rear sight, and put a can on it. An "assasin's SKS". Gotta move first, though. Totally looking forward to projects like that.
