A coke can or something similar packed with steel wool will give you a silencer for a couple of shots. It messes up the trajectory though.

oil filters from a car have long been a "poor mans" silencer. Stuffing it with steel wool further dampens the sound of the out gassing.

The weapons were revolvers. Good luck silencing those.
