Not really and it is illegal to discuss making such devices anyways. Doing so will result in threads being locked.

That's bit of an exaggeration...

Tippmanns are inherently loud.  The big hunk o' steel clanking around inside makes a bit of noise.  And you also have a particularly loud barrel on the front of it as well.

There are several things you can do to reduce the noise, but they will never make you gun quiet.

If you want a quiet gun, buy a Matrix or other electro with few moving parts.

I figured he was going the silencer route. You can always carry a moving blanket around with you or a pillow.
