I've heard potatoes can be used for silencers (yeah, right). Although it sound shitty to me, what do you think? Sounds like a damn hick made that one up. "Well you go down to the gen'ral store, picks yurself up a spud and a roll-o-duct tape, throw it all together and you gots yurself a sound soo-preshun systum!"

heres what you do

stick the spud up your arse and fuck off.


i should have my own tv show.

Sort of.

I imagine the potato method works just like the cotton-in-the-muzzle trick. It does a little to dampen the shockwave from the propellant firing, but does nothing for the sound of the round itself (especially if you're not using subsonic ammo).

In short, forget about it.

That was another test I was going to conduct up to the compound that I just haven't gotten to yet. I'm assuming to use a .22 Ruger Automatic, bore a hole big enough to grip the end of the barrel tightly and run a small drill the rest of the way through so as not to plug the barrel.

I have heard this works, but it is only good for one shot. Wondering....Idaho or Michigan Russet?

Afterwards I'll post results and pictures.

lol good luck global, save some to make potatoe chips.
