Just to make the point, I couldn't even mark this bucket with an airsoft pistol, but from my ghetto BBMG:

Thanks for the feedback, i saw the video and what i try to do with the fluffy material is kind of the steel wool in the silencers, what i am worried with using the baffles is the bb striking them, of course the silencer wont blow up in my face but that deviation could lead to the bb tumbiling arround and not even exiting the barrel.
I will mess around with the baffles and come up with a design that provides me good accuracy. Definetley building and testing the soda bottle disposable silencer on a ballon pea shooter.

A Non detachable silencer from a bbmg wont count as a firearm suppresor right? :lol:

Well, to stop the sound from the BB's hitting the chamber, one less sound source. Not inventing padded BB's

Couple of tips, though.
Your vortex block needs to be as smooth as possible, so if its wood you will need to sand it down VERY fine. An easier way is to line it with PVC pipe, or an aluminum coke can.
You say it will be an AEG? An AEG stands for "Airsoft Electric Gun".
Be very careful when using BBMG's for airsoft. The pressure needs to be regulated low enough that it will not hurt anyone. What JSR refers to as the "jackhammer effect" must controlled, if you are going to play.

I think you got me wrong in the AEG part, it would be an electric gun if i used a portable battery powered compressor and used two cables for a trigger.

So the higher the pressure, the higher the power,etc.

Any ideas for cheap regulators? Could the blowgun kinda act like one if i don't press it too hard?

nighthawkinthelight (or somthin like that) created a backpack air tank but i think you should look at the back, but i think that you could mod some empty propane bottles or fire extinishers to hold alot of psi and having 3 pumped full set with a special conector to fuel the gun with air i can make plans so just ask

I have seen that and it is a pretty good design (nighthawkinlight) but i don't like to see hoses and tubes coming out of my gun, i could mask them as straps to hold it on my shoulder... hhmmmmm... and that is why i like to break my head of to make an independent gun, no bulky hoses or anything, air tank includen in the gun but air would be limited (or you could make a 3 inch iner diameter stock air tank lol) i will stick to the backpack thing.

So it's basicly just making a pretty gun now

Also do you guys know how the mags on those small gas handguns, (the comercial ones) store air and use it to shoot bb's?
