.22 Pistol Recommendation

Ruger 22/45 lite is what you're looking for. I'd upgrade the trigger. I also wouldn't bother with sub-sonic ammo. High velocity rounds generally won't go super sonic in a pistol length barrel.

Mine, for example, sounds like someone shooting a staple gun with standard ammo.
 
The MKIV 22/45 is such a great training platform for new shooters. The MK series have a ton of aftermarket support to build your pistol however you want. Ammo is cheap and they are not picky. And they are extremely accurate. This is my favorite pistol to shoot. It always goes to the range with me.

What trigger, dot sight, and target distance?
 
All right, after seven pages of adult kids oogling over .22 revolvers, but none of them suppressed. Why not?

1. Because they do not need them as much as a high power given the use of subsonic ammo

2. Because they become so bulky, one might just as well get a rifle.

Makes good sense. I have a revolver and a rifle. My rifle is getting threaded at the shop now, but my revolver is collecting dust.

I plan to use it for grouse while hunting elk. We used my revolver, but the rifle shoots better.
 
The gap between the cylinder and the forcing cone makes a suppressor on a revolver pointless.
*Unless* you happen to be toting a Russian M1895 Nagant, which had cylinder that pushed the cylinder flush against the forcing cone when cocked. Mine also featured a roughly 47lb trigger pull in DA. The finest Soviet craftsmanship ca. 1943.
