Horsem4n Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 i was thinking of slashing holes with a dremel just along one side (making sure it faces the bottom) and lining the bottom of the suppressor with fiberglass insulation. Link to post Share on other sites
gisburn20 Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 That would work, I used a dremel with cut off disc to slice into the tube when I internally suppressed my kjw 10/22 but instead of fibreglass I wrapped a scotchbrite pad round it. Jim Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 im only planning to use the fiberglass because i have broken speaker boxes full of it. but any spongy, fabric or foam like material would work. for those wondering anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
k.a Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 I have one in black. It's nice. Review later. DarkLite, is it worth buying one with inner barrel ? Link to post Share on other sites

NonEx Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 Perhaps a stupid question but are those pics of RS or airsoft version? Link to post Share on other sites

k.a Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 Got mine today, the power up / inner barrel version and Kenxin no probs with cycling on TM 1911 Guarder kitted and Detonator threaded barrel but thats more down to the Detonator outer barrel as this thing is heavy. Don't own a chrono but don't think it's made any difference in fps but the inner barrel on the gun with detonator barrel sit's way deep to properly connect with the inner barrel in silencer. And people if anyone was thinking of slapping on a threaded barrel on their 1911, buy the detonator one, can't recommend it enough . Link to post Share on other sites
FrankieV Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 I bought the 8 inch black one of these and the extra attachments for the other thread directions. It came with the 14+, so with the extra pieces I have the 14- and 16+ too. Its usable on pretty much every gun I own. I bought this mainly to go on my KWA MK23 because I saw lots of pictures using that set up to promote sales of the suppresor. However, much to my dissappointment, when it arrived I attached it after changing the insert to the 16mm and took it out to fire a few rounds. When you fire it, the outer barrell of the MK23 pulls back when the slide cycles and sadly pulls back far enough to bring the threaded part back over the lower frame causing the lower part of the suppressor to hit the frame which stops the slide from fully cycling and loading the next round rendering the gun unusable. Its a shame, because the suppressor looks awesome on the MK23. I'll probably use it on my Kriss Vector now or maybe my MP7. Make sure that you try before you buy. That said, it may be fine on the TM fixed slide MK23 but I cannot say as I don't own one. Oh, and shame on those retailers for advertising images of the KWA MK23 to sell this suppressor.

SOL Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Anyone know what is going on with this item in the United States? I ask because this item is practically NONEXISTANT stateside and asking about it will get you wide eyed, tight lipped responses from retailers. It's not been carried by any of the major stores (AirsoftGI, Evike, etc) since mid-April this year and I can't get a straight answer out of any of them as to why they've all suddenly deleted everything (newsposts, youtube videoes, online purchasing pages, etc) pertaining to the Ace 1 Arms OSP suppressor. I'm guessing there were some licensing issues or something and every retailer in the U.S. tossed their inventory in fear of getting sued? Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 no doubt that licensing was the issue. im not surprised as it happens far more often than not. airsoft suppressors are also still in a legal gray area in the states to begin with. either way though, just order from overseas. theres lots of trusted Hong Kong shops.

That's a real shame The reason why I was looking for a stateside retailer was because all the HK shops charge $120+ including shipping for the 7 inch version and there is no guarantee that it won't be seized by customs once it reaches New York anyway. Sure wish I'd bought one when stores here had them as soon as they were available, but I was waiting for reviews... Guess I waited too long. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 I think I paid around $80 shipped from HK for the 7" inner barrel version. Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted July 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 No doubt that licensing was the issue. Probably not just licencing but SilencerCo have a patent (pending) which covers the mounting/locking design so they'd have multiple ways to stop them being sold in the US if the ACE 1 Arms uses the same design, which I'm guessing it does.

hitmanNo2 Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Ace 1 Arms is generally hassle for US shops due to pretty much all their products having problems with licensing issues. Link to post Share on other sites
SOL Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 I think I paid around $80 shipped from HK for the 7" inner barrel version. The price estimates I'm getting from JKarmy, TModelCo. and other HK retailers is ~$75 for the OSP itself, 30 for the piston/threads (which is pretty much required to mount on different pistol threads) and then another 30-40 for shipping to New York. This doesn't even include possible customs fees and taxes. All together, it is a real bummer having to weigh the value of a suppressor vs. being able to buy another gbb pistol at an expected total cost of ~$150. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 $81 shipped from Boom. http://www.boomarms.com/shop/item.cfm?id=ACE-SIL-SHORT-BK&curr_code=USD Link to post Share on other sites

(With piston kit) Lowest I've seen by far, thanks! One wonders why all the other HK retailers quote so much more? Link to post Share on other sites
