Could I make a silencer for my air canon?

Asked by XOIIO (18328points) June 3rd, 2012

I’m wondering, my air canon see here is fairly noisy. That video has AA batteries, with the new projectiles I made its a bit quieter, but I was thinking, could I make a silencer? I could make an adapter from ¾” pipe to 2 inch pipe, and have some sort of flat things (maybe strips of computer case metal) inside to slow down the air like a real silencer. The question is, do you think it would work with something like this? Would it even make the noise any quieter?
