: : : What can i do to silence my gun I have it running off of nitro and a progressive barrel. Help me please

: Please list your current gun setup and any mods or upgrades.

: The first thing to do is lower your in-line reg output to it's lowest PSI. This is commonly called sweetspotting. I just saw on Vampyrs site he has excellent instructions on how to do this. Go there, register for gods sake...
: I don't think you necessarily need to change your valving for a higherflow valve, but if you don't get your gun shooting down to around 280-320 psi, you'll still be making some noise. Less noise than the stock setting of 400+psi, but not the quiet demon you crave.
: Can the stock valve handle 280psi and get up to field legal speed? Depends on the year, methinks, the older models pre2001, I don't think can handle that low consistently.

: Barrel's have a lot to do with it. A well ported barrel is quieter than a less ported one. The Progressive has about 4 inches of porting, the AA on the other hand has 6. The sound signature is much quieter on the 6" of porting.

: Your front Reg is set high on the stock front reg. Lower it as low as you can using the usual formula of add a 1/4 up for slop.
: This will reduce the back block slap, as well as the ram jam.
