Mari watch that whole video when I started coming to this site, I just thought people would get slightly upset. But oh well, I got a question wouldn't it be a good idea for a silencer for pneumatics to have an almost barrel sized muzzle brake that is 3-6 inches long and then have a tube filled with something like steel wool go back over the barrel and muzzle brake that is 3 inches longer than the muzzle brake and then have a few holes near the back of it so the gasses can have turbulence created while allowing an escape route that will not allow pressure to be excessive in the scilencer?
when life gives you lemons... make root beer and leave the world wondering how you did that :D

Steel wool? Hell.....why not English Muffins. They would work just as well.

They released a video showing the internals:

I assumed it was a perforated tube but they actually use guide rods to stop the wad opening against the baffles, clever.
