    A gunshot is the discharge of a firearm, and the sound effect thereof; the term can also refer to a wound caused by such a discharge.

    Gunshot sound
    A typical rifle gunshot is very loud — in the region of 140 to 170 decibels. This can be lowered to around 115 db through the use of a suppressor and subsonic ammunition.

    Gunshot as distress signal
    Some doctrines of survival training allow for the use of three gunshots with an interval of one or two seconds as a distress signal. Anyone finding themselves having to do so however would be well advised to not hit any vessel or aircraft. Aim wide and well ahead; the "cone" of the gunshot noise will cover a fairly wide angle.
