The silencer...is crap.

They're NOT supposed to have holes on the outer shell. That just kills the whole concept

Um... No...
This is a pneumatic, so it is to allow the compressed gases to expand before they exit the barrel, as a large flow, low pressure stream, rather than a high pressure shock wave. The gases leaving a pneumatic are actually quite cold... possibly even freezing, depending on how much you let it adjust to room temperature before firing.
However, it still shouldn't have any holes in the outside.

And give the guy a break. Just because he is being mean and snappy doesn't mean we have to be mean and snappy back.

@base45: this doesn't mean I am on your side, just that I would rather not have forum space wasted by these pointless flame wars. I would much rather pointless arguments that increase the average knowledge of SF by a tad.

Nice clean build, reminds me of my first pneumatic. Same exact setup, but I never could get the bolt action to work smoothly...

Ummm Base, if I might interject here. You aren't endearing yourself to anyone, much less Crowley by continuing to whine about the rules and engaging in childish name-calling. We all have to abide by the rules on Spudfiles and occasionally take a mod smack-down...get over it man!

You've built a great gun...take the high road on this and earn all of our respect.

Hey, nice gun there! I like the breech loader, as well as all the extra attachments (the stock, the silencer, the apparent wide variety of barrel lengths).

Lets see some damage pics!
