A rag-tag way of silencing a handgun,
popular in the Sicilian mafia. Made by wrapping a
thick towel, washcloth, etc. around your arm holding a pistol, concealing the actual presence of the gun, when firing, the area of the towel in front of the barrel will ignite, Looking
like a candle, hence the name. If you need a visual, watch the Godfather 2 when Vito Corleone kills Don Fanucci
I forgot my silencer at my house, luckily there was a
towel near by, I made a Sicilian
candle and
loaded that motherfucker
