Old worn-out o-rings may not offer as good of a seal as new o-rings would and could allow some excess air to leak through and increase the noise profile of your marker. If the bore size of your paintballs is smaller than the bore size of your barrel then you can expect a slightly louder noise profile than you would if your paintballs and barrel were the same size.
I believe this extra noise is due to excess air escaping around the paintball on the inside of the barrel. Whereas if the paintball was the same bore size or close to the same bore size as your barrel then there would be less air escaping around the paintball. Or you could just weld your barrel to your marker and weld the silencer on the end of your barrel and call it a day.. I know this sounds crazy but this is straight from the official website for the ATF.
Do with this information as you will.. Now would I take my chances with the ATF and follow their guidelines for building a legal paintball silencer?
When I first started playing paintball one of the most popular, sought-after barrels on the market was the Stiffi carbon fiber barrel. This barrel was extremely quiet and accurate and it seemed like everyone wanted one. The ingredients in Irish Spring soap are generally effective in keeping raccoons and other small mammals out of your yard. In fact, raccoons can be quite dangerous if they get too close.

You can cut the pipe using a handsaw, a hacksaw, a plastic pipe cutter, or a miter saw. Simply measure from one end of the pipe until you reach ten inches, mark the spot with a pencil, and then cut the pipe accordingly. Remember that if you measure twice, you'll only have to cut once. Cut the 1 inch 2. Just measure out until you've found the inch mark, and mark it with a pencil.
This will be your suppressor's barrel. Note: These lengths may be adjusted for different size paintball guns. Longer suppressors are more unwieldy, but may increase dampening effect. The suppressor's barrel should always be 2 inches 5. Draw a line of drill holes down the suppressor barrel.
Use measuring tape to evenly measure the holes, and make sure to keep the line straight. Draw another line of drill holes down the barrel. Use the same technique you used to mark the holes the last time. Do not stop when you drill through the first surface.
Drill through to the other side, so that you can see straight through. When you are finished, you should have four lines of parallel drill holes. You can use a hand drill, but a drill press is preferable. Use a drill-bit of size appropriate to the size of your projectiles. The holes should be smaller than the projectiles. Sand the inside and outside of the suppressor barrel, and the inside of the 2 inch 5.
Use a rotary tool or sandpaper to smooth out any imperfections. Create the end caps. If you have a jigsaw or scroll saw, you can make end caps from a piece of wood. If not, you can use thick cardboard or another sturdy material. Here is how you make the end caps: Trace a circle on the wood or cardboard around the 2 inch 5.
Slide the suppressor barrel into the larger pipe. The barrel should extend straight through the 2 inch 5.
Attach the end cap securely around the barrel of the suppressor, within the PVC pipe. It should snugly fit in place. Secure the end cap with crazy glue or caulking. Give the glue time to dry before you touch the end cap again. The barrel should extend two inches out of the 2 inch 5. Stuff the space between barrel and 2 inch 5. This will secure the two pieces of pipe, which are the two main parts of the suppressor, firmly in place.
Attach the barrel of the silencer to the barrel of your paintball gun. Neatly place the suppressor over the barrel of your paintball gun. This is why the suppressor has to be wider than the barrel of your gun, so that it can fit over it neatly. Just use the clamp to secure the barrel in place, and use a screwdriver to turn the screw that keeps it in position.
You're all done! Again, just remember that this is an illegal suppressor unless it has been properly registered. With this design it is recommended, but other designs may require something different, it mainly depends on weight. Just be sure that it's secured enough so that the suppressor is centered, otherwise you'll have terrible accuracy. Yes No. Not Helpful 9 Helpful You would need to consult your local laws as the answer could depend on your state, city, etc.
It should, but you would have to modify it slightly. Make the spacers at 2-inch intervals between the steel wool. Not Helpful 53 Helpful
