Not necessarily the case with suppressors...
Yeah, but when wipes are involved, then you probably are going to lose velocity.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

Fair point, I was addressing the general misconception that adding a suppressor automatically reduces muzzle velocity.

Looks like we've already touched on this point ;)

Speaking of silencers, I would like to try something like this:

Image

A silencer with a sort of knive-like edges, wich "peel off" the air.
On the outside of the silencer's housing are holes, wich I think will increase the effective volume, because air can leave the silencer trough them.
Of course the air is slowed down by some steel wool in the housing.

Anyone?

Don't judge me. I'm tired.

And it's only 7 o'clock at night. Week and a half ago, I was oversleeping. Now I can't manage more than 4-5 hours, even if I try.

I know you and Ragnarok already had this out, but as Ragnarok suggested, I was referring to the wipes.

:wink:

I'm sure I can provide a .pdf courtesy of Mr P.A.Luty which illustrates the construction of a silencer for a .22 pistol, the pistol plans are included :wink: .

Also, ALL HAIL JSR

I couldn't find internals of the Welrod, I've no idea where you find such things. Here's where you link to "How to search effectively".

Now I can finally finish my project properly.
