silencer and barrel questions

Do i need a new inner barrel when i buy a silencer? does it have to match the barrel plus the silencer length? Also do precision inner barrels jam alot? any suggestions for a good sized inner barrel for good accuracy without problems...?

Some guys like to have a longer inner barrel and shove a silencer on it. It's like a barrel extender.

But who knows, you might not like the size of your gun and have it shorter, so some guys leave their inner barrel the way it is, and attach a silencer on.
The foam inside helps the BBs flow through so it doesn't get stuck in the silencer.

Depends on the length... if its a short silencer on a stock barrel, sometimes you wont have issue, but with the hopup, chances of the bb hitting the end of the silencer are still there. Take my advice, since you wont be silencing anything with a silencer, make good use of it and toss a longer inner in there.

Negatory. The foam adsorbs noise. The bb is flying straight and unless something is miss aligned it's flight path goes right in the middle of the foam silencers "tunnel". The foam does not help the bb "flow through".

1)No, but it gives you the option to do so.
2)No
3)No, unless you get into the extremely tight diameters like 6.01.
4)It depends what your putting it into.
