look familiar?
My Uncle or Grandfather gave me this silencer; along with a Fox .15 (which is what it fits) and I was wondering if any of you know if it was a production item made by a company. There are no stampings on it... just "etchings of initials" of more than one prev. owner!
Re: look familiar?
I'm with Travis on that one. The outlet looks very restrictive. Still neat though!

Re: look familiar?
lol, no, no, no it's a early prototype!
yep, i'd guess somebody pinched the end together in a vise after loosing the back part, pretty clever.

Re: look familiar?
So what looks like the front is actually the back?

Re: look familiar?
no, i think the squeezed part is the back? It looks like there's just enough gap to let some exhaust out. I don't recognize the manufacture, but it doesn't look homemade, looks like a early version when muffler first came on scene, possibly a aftermarket?
Re: look familiar?
You are correct Mark. The outlet is the only part that looks "hacked"... or should I say; "hack-sawn"... and then as you said; "squeezed in a vise". The angle of the pic. makes it look a lot more "restricted" than it actually is.Mark Boesen wrote:no, i think the squeezed part is the back?
