OMER's NEW GUNS!!!

Thread Status: Hello , There was no answer in this thread for more than 60 days.
It can take a long time to get an up-to-date response or contact with relevant users.
Salt? Where does the salt come from?

Would it have a grip against the steel shaft though? I would think a thin layer would be just enough to dull the scrap or knocking and there is not a huge contact area where the shaft hits the barrel. I don't know of any other types of coatings to try. I'm sure there is some sort of a rubber or something that would adhere and deaden the sound. I just don't know what it would be. Gluing in a thin Teflon strip would be grat, but making sure it held and finding the material are a concern to me.

edit:
Like this stuff - http://www.hambulance.com/servlet/the-56/Plasti-Dip-Spray--dsh-/Detail

It says it makes stuff slip proof, but I'm not sure how it would do on something like this with very small contact points and complete flooding of the surface.

you could rough up the alu. and paint on a coat of epoxy glue, the clear 10min. one. it is sort of paintable with a artists type brush. just an idea. BTW my solution was to buy a Dessault Quatro with PVC covered guide .... (a dumb idea, should have saved the money for the new omer air gun..)
 
There is not enough noise in my current setup to bother me enough to try any spray or paint on ideas at this point. I'm just running ideas through my pea brain and posting them here to hear others thoughts.
 
What do you guys think about the old electric tape on the top of the track, or may be wrap around the barrel ?
 
I've never been impressed with the holding power of Electrical tape myself. Gorilla tape (basically duct tape but a little beefier) I might consider. The wrap of electrical tape, I could see it pulling free and bridging the trac rather than staying stuck down in the track.

There may be different brands of electrical tape, some that stick better that the stuff I've used??

I like the surface of the tape, just not sure it will stay in place long. This just hit me... OMER's camo tape maybe. They have the Ocean and Med camo stickers....

My little riffe mt0 is very very quiet - it's got the vinyl enclosed track and barely makes a whisper.

I THINK - and this is a guess - that the airbalete is going to be between 3-400 us - about the same as the cyrano is now.
 
Hi guys, the idea of a slippery noise suppressing polymer coating on the track surface really makes sense. I have three " Freedivers" Bluewater spearguns,and in addition to an integrated rail,the railway is covered with a hard plastic shell that wraps halfway around the barrel.It's called the "Evolution". Also, the release mechanism in the trigger system does not solely rely on the pull from the slings.
 
ive stupidly bought a new gun in winter so has anyone ere know anything about the omer cayman carbon 75 it looks good i bought it for 200 pounds so i would like good reviews but anything on anything range endurance anything would be greatly apprieciated
