EVERYONE watches England matches" Me "But I don't like football, you know this. I tell you this EVERY time you ask if I watched the match last night" Bossman "...so did you see that save in the second half?"

Madhouse Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 It was covered but all the hits are pretty hard when you’re playing CQB. You could get a very nice side-arm for the cost to fix it.

My dad had the same problem. Last game it just went poof. No warning, no discernable reason, nothing. I'm going to keep using mine as long as it works and if it dies in just getting a warfet.

That's very annoying to happen. Had one of mine go recently, the saving grace was that it was just a basic model. Picked up a Perun Hybrid V3 to give it a go in the future.

Impulse Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 I learned that a lot of "foam filled" suppressors will only have foam near the start and the end. Fortunately I've got some pipe insulation to shove into them, but 2 of my supposedly "foam filled" suppressors only have a baffle at the start and one at the end.

Silencers work by diverting the gasses off the to side. You're better with a series of thin baffles with spaces between than filling the whole thing with foam.

You're better with a series of thin baffles with spaces between than filling the whole thing with foam. i did experiment with cutting baffle shapes in the rings, wrapping a cut up mousemat around the inside of the chamber (to dampen any noise that hits the can wall), stuff like that. dont think it did all that much, a decent sized can and an action that's quite enough for suppression to make a difference is pretty much all the way there. besides, anyone you shoot silent or no will be coming right back for you after he's respawned (assuming he didn't scream hit at the top of his lungs then whisper "he's over there" to his buddies as he walks off) Rogerborg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDcase Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) From the videos I've seen, airsoft silencers/suppressors don't do anything except look the part. Real weapons have high velocity gas to get rid of but airsoft vented gas makes no noise as it exits anyway. Edited July 17, 2021 by EDcase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a lot of difference in sound output with the suppressor on and without it on my mk23. I can use it in garden without neighbours slamming windows and hurriedly dragging children and pets in to safety lol Regards EDcase 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd hazard that in most cases you'd be better off just running a longer barrel inside the silencer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real weapons have high velocity gas to get rid of but airsoft vented gas makes no noise as it exits anyway. it depends on the action. for aeg's and gbbr's they're pretty much pointless as the action noise is by far the largest element. for hpa's and nbb's where there's minimal action noise then they absolutely help with the "pop" you get from the barrel and can bring it down to a level of silence that if you're standing a few feet away the sound of the bb landing makes more noise than the gun does. 2 minutes ago, Rogerborg said: An over-volumed toy can do a bit of snap, crackle, and pop, but we're talking M100 / half-cylinder / 110mm barrel or thereabouts. I'd hazard that in most cases you'd be better off just running a longer barrel inside the silencer. for aeg's yes, however it's still largely pointless given the gearbox noise, piston slap etc. you can do quiet aeg builds (mostly by filling the gun with more foam than is good for it), but you have to really really not want to just carry a mk23 as a secondary for when silence is required.

EDcase Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 I can believe there'd be a slight difference for HPA but would be good to have a video comparing with and without. Yeah, having an inner barrel will have more effect on the BB but no effect on sound 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratton Oakmont Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 The difference for hpa is significant, well worth using a decent suppressor. the lack of noise with a suppressor was the reason I built an hpa setup. sold it to buy an mws, plenty of noise now.

Today i learned that i should just buy ammo on site if i am on public transport, more space for water/sports/salts drinks. Seriously i did 5lt yesterday in prep for today and still did 8lt water and 1lt (2x500ml) lucazade before leaving site. There were some today that were not hydrating as they should. Also learnt i really enjoy the cqb. Not the loose collection of structures some call a 'village' but the full on "small but perfectly formed" Red 1 Chiselhurst. So intense. I also reaffermmed i enjoy the look on peoples faces when tell them how much my toy gun cost after desicivally beating them in a firefight.
