I believe that's the idea. As long as damage from silenced weapons
alone can do it.

I'd say the guard ability comes into effect after all damage has been
doled out.

This came up in another post already. Right now under the rules for
pumpable characters it seems you can apply it more than once, though
I'm not sure I personally agree with that as the spirit of the card.
I currently have a question in to FASA for a ruling on this.

See above.

This also came up in another post. I also have a question in to FASA
on this one as well. I'd personally say melee is only added in the
once and the second set of Razors gives you an additional +1.
