this is my old co-axial with suppressors attached to all venting points including the pilot valve exhaust. the suppressor on the front works very well and the vent air from the pilot valve was actually noisier than the suppressor on the front so i put a suppressor on that too.
it takes a loud bang down to a rather small thump at 100psi, still audible but much quieter. though having the vent ports suppressed does reduce the power of the gun over all, i would estimate it works around 75% when fully suppressed

You know i never thought about suppresing a coaxial, but actually thats a really good idea, and I've never seen it done before. nice idea and implementation of it. I really liek the suppresor for the blowgun too.
