removable silencer?

[garycontrary]

hey ya'll. i am looking to buy a Y&P 92FS (heavyweight version) that is supposed to come with a removable silencer. how does this removable silencer work?

[JamesBondAIRSOFT]

Well, most silencers stay on the gun because the barrel is threaded on the outside or inside, so you would just screw it on. I have also heard of but not seen a silencer that just stayes on with friction.

A silencer that stays on with just friction? I'd like to know more about that. Does anyone else know any information on them?

[r1p_c0rd]

i haven't heard of silencers which are attached by friction but there are silencers which use a clamp over the muzzle, the clamp is similar to the clamps used in newer "quick release" rail accessories, maybe thats what JamesBondAIRSOFT is referring to.

My gun came with a non-removable silencer with an orange tip on it then when that snapped off, there was no orange left to identify the gun as airsoft

[Sathron]

You could paint some orange on it if you want. Just make sure it does not get in the insides of the gun.

[Dagon]

Does white work also ?

[Dansniper42]

If you mean white as replacement for an orange tip it would not matter if you want your gun to be legal, sorry but orange is the only color man.

be careful cause you can break off those plastic silencers easily

jamesbondairsoft speaks the truth,,i hav a nasty mk23 socom ebb pistol (it was bought as a gift and is a bout as much fun to use as falling down the stairs) and it has a push on pull off silencer,,its so bad that when the silencer is on the bbs wont come out as they get cought inside the silencer.
