How does the suppressor reduce recoil?
It makes a big difference. With good suppressors the recoil reduction is almost as good as a good muzzle brake, with none of the negatives.

I got the impression that they miscalculated her a little. I think they expected her to play along in the name of actually doing real damage to the cartel. If she had, she probably wouldnt have been so strained and broken. I think they expected her to ignore her moral compass.
The didnt want the black guy because they thought he would definitely not go along with it, and maybe she would.

stock 10/22s don't cycle subsonic ammo well,
They will run fine with 45gr+ suppressor ammo. Basically everybody makes that these days. The usually wont cycle the super low energy stuff. Some standard velocity ammo is also subsonic.

the muzzle blast will disorientate the intruder
If you dont have ear protection its going to frick you up at least as bad. Shoot a pistol out of a barn door at night with the lights off. The noise is unbelievable.
A short rifle with a suppressor is by far the best home defense setup.

Its not even the hearing loss thats a problem. As someone said earlier, its damn close to a flash bang going off in your hands. The noise is so loud that it is disorienting, and the flash from some loads is horrible.
Anything with a rifled barrel should come standard with a suppressor.

Kate was a super capable female operator just working in a world of wolves and killers and found herself way over her head.
Absolutely.
She was on a tunnel raid with a delta and SAC team. The best go in and kill everybody team on earth. She was a box being checked so CIA could "legally" run ops inside the US. Its not like she was a sniveling little estrogen bag. She raided a tunnel with Delta/SAC, punched a SAC guy in the face after being shot in the vest, killed a few people, got shot at a few times, etc.
She was a cop dropped into the middle of the US government taking the gloves off. They didnt want the black guy because he was a lawyer with combat experience, and they didnt need anyone to actually operate, especially someone who would be asking lots of questions. They had the best trigger pullers on earth already. They needed someone with the right credentials who would be willing to keep their mouth shut in the name of fricking up some cartel king pins.
Its such a damn good movie.

I love how the main character (Kate) just spirals downward the whole movie. Its dark, but its different, and it makes for a good movie.

I like the first one better.
The good guys really kick the shite out of the bad guys the whole movie, which makes it enjoyable. There is no moment of no hope when the hero finds their 2nd wind and conquers all. Its CIA and briefly delta absolutely skull fricking some drug runners. It isnt really fair, and it is awesome.

The days that you could get one with a brand new barrel and stock for $700 were awesome. Wish I had gotten a dozen of them. The days of cheap surplus firearms are likely long behind us.
I probably wont buy one of these at this price point just because kids, but it is awesome that they'll be available. I assumed like im sure many did that we weren't getting anything more modern than the M1 on the surplus market, ever. Lets see some M16A1 uppers next!

Kate was a fantastic character. She was in way way over her head, and her arc in the movie played out perfectly IMO.
My favorite thing about it is how it is tactically accurate relative to typical movies. Even a semblance of Realistic combat makes movies so much better. It doesnt have to be perfect. Sicario isnt. But damn its so much better than most movies in that respect.
One of my favorite moves and I love how some semblance of tactical realism is becoming more common. See: sicario, zero dark thirty, 13 hours, etc.
