Suppressed and un-suppressed L96 (airsoft) Sound Signatures

Wednesday, December 8th, 2010


In this video, I do a quick comparison of the suppressed and unsuppressed sound signatures of my L96 Urban Warrior 1. The day was very rainy and wet with a lot of background noise from the surrounding neighbors, which I think recreates real-world conditions to evaluate the performance of this rifle. The rifle is based on a Well brand L-96 platform. Has a shortened outer AND inner tight barrel (outer barrel is 16.5″ (42cm) and inner barrel is to about VSR G-spec length, 12″ (30.4cm)) so that I could mount a working, proprietary baffle, suppressor that not only further mitigates noise but also enhances accuracy and velocity due to free-bore boost. I modified the lower area of the stock (added “finger notches” as in the real-steel rifle) and added a “dummy magazine” which is functional as it has a compartment for a spare magazine. It has a “harris-type” bi-pod and is topped with a Tasco 40X 4 -16, illuminated Tactical scope with sunshade and lens caps and a custom built anti-reflection device and I also mounted a bubble-level to help keep the rifle straight in shooting, which is more critical in an airsoft gun as the trajectory of the projectile is short and parabolic. It has a “reptilian pattern” camo finish in olive-drab. Reduced the overall length to be suitable as a precision rifle for urban sniping or DMR roles where engagement distances are usually closer. Gun’s length: 36″ (91.4cm) without suppressor, 40.5″ (103cm) with suppressor. Please do take a look at my other

Potential Danger of Replicas Guns

One potential problem you could face is having your pistol replica, replica rifle, replica guns, http://www.replicagunsswords.com mistaken for a real weapon. Because some of these models are so realistic, law enforcement agents can sometimes even not distinguish the two, especially at a distance.
