I was just talking to someone at an airsoft store about the upgrades I'm doing to my L96. When I told him i was going to add a silencer his response was "How long is your barrel". When i told him he said I would need a longer barrel because the air infront of the BB would cause turbulence and innacurate shots. Is this true? I really hope not because that will mean I have to either find a flash hider or buy a shorter outer barrel.

What he was saying is the inner barrel needs to almost reach the end of the silencer. I have bigger issues right now tho. While adjusting my hop up suddenly my gun lost range for no reason. Took it apart and as i was re-assembling I noticed the screw that holds the external barrel to the stock stripped(or the aluminum hole it screw's into stripped). So im just gonna pay someone to look at it.

I ordered a new outer barrel with a 333mm inner barrel length with a 8.25 inch silencer to cover the inner barrel. Now I wasn't thinking about barrel vibration when i ordered it so I have a question. Will the 4 barrel spacers I have keep the inner stable? If not will I be able to wrap some electrical tape around the tip of the inner barrel to stabilize it in the silencer?
