simfreek@hotmail.com 48 Posted May 30, 2013 Not really a suggestion as there have been plenty of those. This is just a video I stumbled upon where this group uses oil filters as silencers. Sure they use an attachment that is manufactured. But I'm pretty sure I could metal lathe something similar as a ghetto rig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thehero 119 Posted May 30, 2013 I actually am planning to get my machinist Friends to whip me up one for my Glock 17c just for shits and grins when I get it maybe I'll make a video and post it here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Gews- 7443 Posted May 30, 2013 Note most of these firearms are .22 caliber.Skip to 2:50 to see how it sounds when used on a gun firing a larger caliber... sounds pretty loud to me when compared to a "proper" suppressor but it's hard to tell from videos.Being able to craft these would be better than the scrapped idea of crafting Aimpoints, etc, but I'm not sure what rifles / pistols they'd be able to be used on or how they'd affect sight pictures, also the default "silenced" sound is way too quiet at the moment, even for "real" suppressors. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saethkept 134 Posted May 30, 2013 I'm fairly certain the audio was heavily edited. Nice post nonetheless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aussiebobby 82 Posted May 30, 2013 (edited) Like to see them use a used oil filter while aiming down the barrel Edited May 30, 2013 by AussieBobby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taco241 393 Posted May 30, 2013 The Ruger 10/22 rifle they fire sounds pretty much like it would normally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OrLoK 16185 Posted May 30, 2013 Hello thereThis video pops up every now and then.Its a fun idea, but a little flawed.Firstly one needs a weapon with a threaded barrel and then their custom adapter, so finding or machining one is not likely in the Dayziverse.I'd stick to a .22 and a coke bottle stuffed with rags.RgdsLoK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toxicsludge 406 Posted May 30, 2013 I'd stick to a .22 and a coke bottle stuffed with rags.pretty sure I saw that on a movie once. Also a pistol wrapped in a pillow was also effective. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sutinen 635 Posted May 30, 2013 Expect when you don't have subsonic rounds, it echoes pretty far and the guy getting shot at will hear the "cracks" 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cap'n (DayZ) 1827 Posted May 30, 2013 Y'know, sometimes I feel bad for you guys out there. Some of you can't have guns at all(majority of the known world), some are so restricted it doesn't really count(UK, Australia, Germany). I'm on our school shooting team(don't joke about that shit, its competition shooting with .22's), and we compete state wide. Of course, it is slowly dying from a lack of funds by the school and the growing infection of leftists in our community. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

that_f-in guy 1 Posted June 2, 2013 Take a wooden baseball bat, cut off the barrel of the bat, keep the last foot or so. Drill a hole down the center of it. With the barrel of the bat drill holes perpendicular to the center firing hole. Wrap the bat in fiberglass insulation and gaffers tape. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Better than a lot of places in europe and the access the public land hunting is second to none in terms of acres.Problem is, as somebody pointed out, threaded barrels and the adapator needs threading, you're looking at mill/lathe.
