Puts a silencer on for the shots (6)
I believe the answer is:
stills
'shots' is the definition.
(both can mean a photograph)
'puts a silencer on for the' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'the' could be 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects) and 't' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'sills' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for stills that I've seen before include "Photos taken from a film" , "Alcohol producers" .)
