Here's what a typical airgun silencer looks like inside, hair curlers, washers and sound absorbing scouring pads ;) Dont know, it has not arrived yet lol, just thought you may have come across them before. Its called an airsoft M4 nato 200x4...

3.5 hours for a 68 cubic inch paintball tank isn't too bad. Although, at 400 watts, it's going to be a decent amount on your power bill if you use it a lot. It's actually not a bad idea if you have limited or no access to filling stations. Yes, drawing 400w it would become very expsensive if you we...

Re: "shoebox compressor "
I reckon jsr or wyz will have a crack at making one lol. I have a friend who has his own industrial compressor to fill my SCUBA to 4500 psi :) Plus no more effort pumping forever in a day. On the other hand, it's good exercise and as opposed to pumping iron in a gym it's actually useful work ;) How...

It's slow...the down side of low power in and high pressure out...but it DOES work...which is good enough for most guys. They do tend to get noisey when they near the cut off pressure too.

Re: How to: .50 cal semi-auto
My mom told me to clean my room and I found out I have a couple of QEVs, 3-ways and cylinders all around, I thought I´d make something with them and my friend had just got me some 12mm steel BBs. So I made a simple .50 cal semi-automatic using 1/2 inch stainless steel tube as the barrel. It works l...

Re: First 6mm qev camo sniper rifle
Hey jack, i forgot to mention in my last post..... A fair bit of air comes out the bottom of the trigger/pilot when it is fired.... Is this normal, or is my firing tank to big and im wasting air through my trigger?. Remind me, this isn't semi auto right, you're dumping all the air from the chamber?...
