You have to wait until Seattle Day 1 you advance to the Seattle - Capitol Hill stage. It is one of the stages on the way to the headquarters of the Channel 13 television station. During this part you pass, e.g. a gas station. Follow the main streets until you come across the bookshop shown in the picture - you will recognize it by the LBGT flag hanging next to it.

The good news is that you can attach and detach a silencer whenever you want to - do this by pressing the Triangle button. Removing the silencer is a good idea if you plan on having an open confrontation and don't want to use it unnecessarily.

Additional note: when using a silenced pistol, try to aim at the opponents' heads. This will increase the chances of killing an enemy with a single shot, making each silencer last longer.
