    Silent M4 Build - Discussion of parts

    Pretty much what I'm going for, at least it won't be as loud as it is now which gives me away when I'm stalking the enemy.

    Silent M4 Build - Discussion of parts

    I actually have some of the Abbey gun grease in my Toolbox already, so I will definitely get some more. I'll take a look at the CV stuff and see what the consistency is like, may be a better / longer lasting option. Cheers Lozart

    Silent M4 Build - Discussion of parts

    I shall investigate the usage of the Helical gears, but it may be a future project that they get used on as it seems to be a large time sink for the "perfect" shimming, and not much gain. Although if the noise in my gearbox is reduced and the gears are causing the noise, I shall add them after...

    Does the installation of these require short stroking the pistion? It seems like they are for a high Torque ROF build, pulling the stronger spring back and releasing it quicker.

    Silent M4 Build - Discussion of parts

    I've done a bit of a look around for helical gears and every post baring thos in here state they are louder than standard gears. Even when shimmed correctly. For example - http://www.airsoftforum.com/board/topic/178949-extremely-irritated-helical-gears/ There most posts about them are nearly...

    Newbie advice

    Welcome! I hope you stick around to tell us how it goes for your first day! That setup looks to be pretty decent for his first gun, the CM raider should last him a long while so long as care is taken for it! Only thing missing from it is eyepro (Safety glasses / goggles) which is the only major...

    Silent M4 Build - Discussion of parts

    I'm going to compile a quick list from all of these. - Shimming - Needs to be spot on - Airbrake / Sorbopad (I thought it was Neoprene cheers!) - Helical gears (Not sure what these are to be honest will look). - Glue in bushings (What does this add?) - AoE - Cylinder / Barrel teeth ratio...

    Why not just use the M204 underslung as a shotgun? No Stock, more BB's and wider spread :P

    No it doesn't, you need to obtain the license from your local constabulary or group I believe.

    Silent M4 Build - Discussion of parts

    Hey guys, Looking to silence my M4's gearbox and was taking a look at the various ways to do so. Obviously one major part is the Piston head when it slams into the cylinder, and to stop that I was looking at either getting some Neoprene (I think it's Neoprene) foam as some searches on google...

    Basically what Gingerbreadman Stated, the Staff are getting worse and they are starting to restrict weapon usage to silly things. Looks like i'm heading to APOC on the 20th then!
