KWA KMP9 (TMP) New NS2 Model. Threaded barrel?

[Connors]

Does anyone ahve one of these 'lil monsters? I just bought one today. I pose a question for those more knowledgeable in the gas gun wrld than myself..

Is there a threaded barrel available for this gbb?
This is the exact model I just bought.
I've done some searching, but my shitty internet service has hindered me a bit, and I've come up dry.

There are no threaded barrels for the KMP9, but I believe there will be aftermarket barrel extensions made to attach to the muzzle brake. I would guess that they will be available for purchase sometime around summer. But It could be just a rumor.

Did you have a source for this? It's awesome info if it's legit. But if it's just speculation, it doesn't really help anybody, does it?

Sorry about the back seat modding. I won't do it anymore.

I heard that this was being planned over on the KWA forums.
I'll send a PM to one of the staff members or I'll make a thread about it and try to get more info. Though it may be just a rumor.

But I did find this: www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/Accessories_Silencers_KSC_Dummy_Suppressor_for_TP9_Inner_Barrel_Extender.htm
Or this: www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/Accessories_Silencers_KSC_TMP_Silencer.htm

It should be compatible with KWA since KSC is so similar to them.
I don't think the extra inner barrel will do anything for range and accuracy, but the mock suppressor is QD. I guess you could take out that inner barrel and use it like a regular barrel extension. It can be found in stock on other oversea retail sites.

A note about that style of barrel, those extended inner barrels often do more harm than good. The seam between the barrels creates accuracy issues and usually leaks a bit of air. Your shots become far more unstable as a result. They made similar silencers for KWA and KSC M11s way back in the day, and everybody who used them reported similar results. You were better off finding a mock suppressor that didn't have the barrel in it or just replacing your inner barrel with a longer one.

Vamp,

Make sure when you're quoting a rumor, you make it clear that it's a rumor. Otherwise, people might think that what you're saying is fact, or backed by more fact than what this last tid bit of information was backed by.

Well thanks for the input. It will help me make better posts.

I just made a thread on the KWA forums, so a staff member will be able to confirm or deny the rumor.

I did find another barrel extension and added the link to my previous post. Although I am unsure if it can be imported because it is foam filled for sound suppression.

I'd definitely be straying away from those "extended inner barrels" they are worthless and not to my needs, plus with the properties of gas, and the way a barrel works all together, having a gap in the middle does not do any good whatsoever. I simply want to be able to attach a suppressor I already own to my SMG, or be able to buy a new barrel or adaptor of some sort, if they did like the Maruzen APS and CA M24 rifles, and made a big lug for the end which can be removed to reveal threads for an adaptor.

Knief, if I remember correctly, and correct me if I'm wrong, but you owned a KSC TMP way back in the day, didn't you? Was there any aftermarket parts of the nature I may be looking for you might be able to point me towards?

[Knief]

I did own one of their older models, but I never did much in the way of looking for aftermarket parts for it. I traded it away pretty quickly (regretfully), and never looked for a suppressor or any other upgrades for it. My guess is that something existed back then, but I couldn't point you toward it. And chances are, they would have stopped making it back when KSC stopped making the TMP. Sorry.

This is a a silencer without an extra inner barrel. It has foam baffels that supress sound and if you wanted you could use it to hide a longer inner barrel. ;D
If you do some searching I'm sure you can find it in stock somewhere.

EDIT: Well it turns out that it was just a rumor and KWA is not producing a supressor for the KMP9.
