Would this work on a Recon CS-6? I can't find damn longshots ANYWHERE IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY (of Australia, natch). GNGNG. This would look better if it was black, though. But that's just my opinion.

This wouldn't silence it. You're much better off opening it, and padding the moving parts with foam, since it's not the air, but the springs that makes the sound.

In the UK this makes the Longshot illegal :P
So unfortunately I can't try this without risking a hefty sentence for posession of a firearm. Dammit >.<

the only way to silence a longshot would be to put some sort of padding inside it.

You can still hear the sound when you shoot is but it makes it look cool. p.s. first to comment. ha ha

The photographic quality is somewhat inferior to what I am expecting sorry Im so high-standard-izeded. :)

Are the couplings you are talking about the 2 pieces of PVC pipe in the picture?
