"Hair Curlers" That wasn't a joke. Some silencers have intestings made of Hair Curlers. Check out the Weihrauch Silencer for instance. _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Fri Jul 17, 2009 12:14 pm scroller99 Veteran Member Joined: 03 Dec 2008 Posts: 272 Location: Hopewell Junction I don't think the a skull would deaden the sound. Baffles would be needed in the first place and the recoil of the pistol would pull the gun away from the head letting the sound escape and negating the hoped silencing effect. Where the silencer moves with the gun and deadens the sound before hitting the object and the blast of the shell would give enough pressure to push it away from the object anyway _________________ crosman2250 xt crosman 1077 crosman modded 2240 benji 392 drozd bumble bee   Posted: Fri Jul 17, 2009 1:17 pm SnowBunny Veteran Member Joined: 21 Jun 2009 Posts: 158 Gone Last edited by SnowBunny on Sat Jul 18, 2009 11:49 pm; edited 3 times in total   Posted: Fri Jul 17, 2009 5:14 pm TONBON Veteran Member Joined: 02 Jan 2009 Posts: 468 hey, i'm all for being creative and wanting to do some testing. if "the man" take you're homade silencer, no matter how badly made or looking. and installs it on a firearm. even w/ duct tape. if it muffles the sound 1DB. they can bust ya'. 1 day.......i'l get one leagal. my state allows them. in the meantime, i would not mess w/ the experiments. defintly not post about it. if you get busted, you may do time. if you're underage, you're parents or guardians will feel the heat. it's just not worth it to me.   Posted: Fri Jul 17, 2009 6:43 pm kanyon Silver Status Member Joined: 09 Aug 2008 Posts: 1582 Location: New Zealand RatcatcherDino wrote: fritz wrote: I wonder if you pressed the muzzle up against a soft target... say a human head?

It's just plain bad forum ettiquette. If you don't want to get busted for something, don't do it- simple. _________________ ` I'd say "I care." But I'd be lying.
