1st_shooter Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 I may need to buy one just for the sake of buying one....hehehe i remember seeing this ages ago but cant think where, reminds me of the silencer he uses in the movie "shooter" Link to post Share on other sites

Weirdguy Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 i remember seeing this ages ago but cant think where, reminds me of the silencer he uses in the movie "shooter" They actually exist in real life for "cleaning pruposes" but even the ATF saw through that lie and classified them as silencers a few years ago. So I wouldn't buy this if you have a real firearm chambered in 14mmccw Link to post Share on other sites
P.S.I. Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 So I wouldn't buy this if you have a real firearm with 14mmccw threaded barrel Fixed....You can't have a gun chambered in 14MM ccw. Link to post Share on other sites
SuperJohn Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Also, how is this eco-friendly? Surely it's made in the far east with nasty processes, dodgy paint, and you'll probably throw the bits of bottle away afterwards!!! [/cynicism] Link to post Share on other sites
Peanut Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Any idea how loud it would make a typical AEG sound? Link to post Share on other sites
TDS Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Any idea how loud it would make a typical AEG sound? I can imagine pretty dang loud, but it would be a weird "blump" sound, try cutting a bottle like shown and try it out, you dont need the adapter to tape a bottle to the barrel.

The End Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 I think that this product is made of epic fail. If you watch the video on youtube of the product, the sound "dampening" and "loudning" is negotiable at best. There is no sound difference. If you buy this product, you'll not only look like a fool, but you'll be a fool for spending the $15 for the product. Just save up and get a better more realistic mock silencer.

Samm Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Anyone want to lose realism here? Good choice if you do ... D Realism of what exactly?

my_plague_666 Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Damn, illegal in the US of A no, illegal to make a silencer. they havent made a threaded adaptor illegal as long as it's used as a loudener its fine. Link to post Share on other sites
Utty Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Realism of what exactly? I thought plastic bottles have been used as makeshift suppressor/gas expansion chambers in guerrilla warfare for some time. Exactly. While Madbull themselves admit this is a crazy sort of joke-product, I think this is actually a pretty cool device, and there's nothing unrealistic about it. Of course, buying a specialized adapter for ghetto-suppressors isn't very ghetto, but it makes it easier to switch between elitist pig and ghetto suppressors. Good stuff.

Good stuff. To complete the effect you could set some cotton on fire and drop it in the plastic bottle until it goes out to brown/slightly bubble it which one would assume would happen. The price isnt bad for a threaded adapter, and who wouldn't want a 2 or 3 litre trumpet on an ak? Link to post Share on other sites
Spartan117x Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Isn't the sound mostly(98%) from the gearbox, so wouldn't doing this-well, not really do much? Link to post Share on other sites

Chris North Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Isn't the sound mostly(98%) from the gearbox, so wouldn't doing this-well, not really do much? A lot of noise is from the gearbox, but there's also a lot of noise from the muzzle. This might not reduce the report by a noticeable amount (if that's what you're going for, and not just leaving it hollow to make the AEG pop louder). Whether or not silencers are effective in airsoft remains a debatable subject. Link to post Share on other sites
crump3t Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Whether or not silencers are effective in airsoft remains a debatable subject. I hate to disagree, but TM's Mk.23 is a prime example of a suppressor's effectiveness in airsoft. Now granted it's NBB, which takes care of all the cycle's clanking and whatnot, and it works more like a real suppressor by containing the gas following the BB whereas a suppressed AEG wouldn't benefit... but hey, at least there's one example of functional airsoft suppressors.

Pablo Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 Absolutely - the TM Mk23 makes a godawful noise without the suppressor. Link to post Share on other sites
