I always thought barrel suck had to do with the volume of air in the cylinder not matching the volume of the barrel, not all that retarded math.

Good read.

I can attest that barrel suck is true..

I have 2 G3s one is the sg1 and the other is the sas version. I was having issues with the sg1 in regards to the mechbox, so swapped the front ends. what ended up happening was a gun that was shooting about 310fps with .2s ended up not even being able to launch a projectile far enough to hit the targets at the new old flag raider's chrony stations. this effect is discussed on this site, it's basically because the sas has a different cylinder (has air holes in it) than the sg1.

Airsoft hurts more than Paintball!
I hear this in the shop all the time from PBr's.
What an Awesome myth, it keeps the noob & experienced PBr's away from AS.

Actually, supressors are also quite effective on a P90, especially if you wrap the battery in a sock.

13Fido13 · July 18th, 2009, 01:12

Agreed. Suppressor on my JG 416 is like night and day to the regular gun. It's not completely quiet obviously, but an amazing difference.

KNIVEZS · July 18th, 2009, 01:35

water bottles can also be use as a silencers

Kingsix · July 18th, 2009, 01:40

Looks like a loudener too me.
