lol yea sure

basicly it is 2 peices of pvc put together with somthing soft that will muffle the sound placed inbetween.
The first pvc peice is a lil bigger that the barrel (just snug around it), with holes in it (4-8 mabey) and then carpet or steel wool w/e you want inbetween, After that wrap or stuff in your "muffler" and then a larger peice of pvc with mabey just 4-6 holes this time on top. Then to finish it off seal the sides of the silencer sill allowing holes for the ammo of course.

srry for pic quality made it really quickly. just click it to see larger image
