usually minis are really quiet.

good luck with butane, it will be extremely hard to modify the little tank from a lighter to meter it!

and isnt the c:b ratio a bit off? :wink:

A silencer of that size would be a violation of federal law because it could be considered to be modible to silence a firearm (its dumb i know). You could get a class three gun dealer license and license for the silencer, but i don't think its worth it.
But build it anyway, just make sure you can take it apart and be able to hide it, but then again why would the feds be searching your house, unless of course you got arrested with the cannon and silencer on you...
Anyways nice mini, the flush bushing looks great. Wouldn't 6mm bbs fit in the 1/8 pipe nicely?
Edit: damn it i go to use the bathroom and don't post what i wrote and i get back and i miss a whole bunch of stuff.
