Tinkerton Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Was browsing airsoft-news, when it hought i'd take a look at one of the websites, and i stumbled upon this: http://tinyurl.com/2266w2 Now, im not sure what it does, but my guess would be that it somehow makes smoke come out of the end of the silencer, for added realism and stuff. sounds quite awesome, and i'll probably en up getting one to try... pics: Link to post Share on other sites
Sonny Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 I hope it doesnt use something like baby powder to create a smoke effect, because that would be a pain to clean out of your inner barrel. I highly doubt that it would be actual smoke, as that could be some type of fire hazard. Link to post Share on other sites
sirrith Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 I'll put my money on the smoke being the same powder they use in their grenades (which fail horribly.) Link to post Share on other sites
hardboiledcop Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 video here It uses powder, and it seems to only work particularly well with the p90, could look pretty awesome with a laser.. Link to post Share on other sites
mrblah Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 the only thing that is retarded is the baby powder like coating on the suppressor after FA. Now if they only made something that looked like a muzzle flash, i'd be all over it (and no a TM tracer unit is not a reasonable substitute for a muzzle flash)... Link to post Share on other sites
my_plague_666 Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 sorry about the threadjack, but who watched the vid of the GBB AKS74u on there? looks like its not a classic, yay for no external tanks...but where does the gas go? if its in the mags it would be plagued by low capacity and non compatibility.

Chris North Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 It may be that Tanio Koba VFC conversion kit that was announced a while back, but I don't know, none of the vids are working. I just get a big page of encoded text if I try to open it, and WMP won't play it. Any idea what I'm doing wrong, or is it my computer? Link to post Share on other sites

D10 Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Looks interesting, I wonder how that would perform on a gbb? Link to post Share on other sites

DarkLite Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 The Armed Forces AKS74U is a VFC converted with Escort internals, gas in mags. And this silencer is retarded. I can make one easily and cheaply: 1) Get silencer. 2) Get AEG. 3) Fill silencer with baby powder. 4) Shoot. Link to post Share on other sites
sekiryu Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 the only thing that is retarded is the baby powder like coating on the suppressor after FA. Now if they only made something that looked like a muzzle flash, i'd be all over it Real guns don't have muzzleflashes, except at night, and the muzzle flash is suppressed with a sound suppressor. The baby powder coating on the suppressor actually makes it look realistic--If you look at a suppressor after alot of rounds have been through it, it looks like it's been dipped in liquid nitrogen.

hitmanNo2 Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Real guns don't have muzzleflashes, except at night,. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Your kidding right? Link to post Share on other sites
Tommygunn Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 As above. It's not meant to represent flash it's meant to represent smoke, no one gives a monkeys if you open it up and the baby powder looks like burnt propellant residue. You've taken it all out of context.

sekiryu Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Your kidding right? Well, there are a few exceptions. Desert Eagles and Mosin-Nagant M44s have brilliant muzzle flahses. But the last few times I've fired a rifle, there was nothing but a puff of grayish smoke. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 It depends on lighting conditions and the quality of the camera thats used to record the firing of the gun. Just because your eyes didn't see it doesn't mean it didn't happen. I'm not even going to bother posting youtube links to vids with muzzle flash visible during the day time.

sekiryu Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Point is, there's no muzzle flash when a sound suppressor is used. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 O really? Muzzle flash with suppressor during the day no less Yeah, I know it's a special case Link to post Share on other sites
Tommygunn Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 ...which is totally unrelated to this topic since it is about replicating smoke from a suppressor. (not at you Hitman) Link to post Share on other sites
sekiryu Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Yeah, I know it's a special case Yes, considering that's unburnt powder igniting, and not a muzzleflash. People seem to miss that this stuff is all in reply to someone elses post..... Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Yes, considering that's unburnt powder igniting, and not a muzzleflash. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's flash that is coming out of the muzzle, therefore surely it's muzzle flash? Link to post Share on other sites
toyboy Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Give up sekiryu, you've already made a ridiculous claim that guns don't have muzzle flashes, no one's going to listen to your excuses. Link to post Share on other sites
sekiryu Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Technically, it could be. Wiki groups muzzleflashes into three parts. you've already made a ridiculous claim that guns don't have muzzle flashes Don't quite see how it's ridiculous, given I've fired real guns, and haven't seen muzzleflashes when I fired them.

sekiryu Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Because of their short barrels. A long time ago I was told that guns didn't have muzzleflashes. But now I see it's like stars. You can't see them in the day, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. Link to post Share on other sites
