SILENCING

I was not happy with the cheap attempt at silencing my Urban that in my opinion did not do much for the gun...Since I do not have a reliable gunsmith where I live that could cut, thread ½ unf and crown...I was left with little option, so I removed the stock moderator myself, this was not easy and required some dedicated time with a Dremel...After I removed it I found a weird thread and a thinner end of barrel section...I decided to cut the barrel down by about ¾ inch...I then proceeded to epoxy in place 2 carbon fiber sleeves (I needed 2 to match the correct OD of the barrel, this now gave me one continuous OD / length to work with...I then re-crowned the barrel and then added a carbon fiber sleeve to the barrel , this allowed me to slide on a ½ UNF slide on 16MM silencer adaptor...All I am awaiting now is my Huggett...

STOCK

I was not happy with the plastic stock that was slippery in a high heat and humid environment and lacked Character...So I got some Fusion Plastic Primer and primed the entire stock...This was followed up by 2 coats of Krylon “Make It Stone” in grey...The stock was great had more feel to it and was very grippy, no slipping...I decided to then use a black Krylon Protective Enamel to paint the camo patterns using palmetto fronds... This finish really gives the stock the textured feel I was looking for, the Krylon Make It Stone has been used successfully on Powder Burners...

I think its came out great as a first attempt and makes the gun look completely different, this added with the CDT trigger, Alteros Regulator, Carbon Fiber Sleeve and finally a Huggett on the end and believe I have one unique and sweet Urban...

Wow, that stock looks awesome!

Only improvement I see is to get rid of the ugly green colored O ring at the rear, and replace it with a black one!

O and drill a hole in the sleeve aligned with the fill port, so you won't have to pull the sleeve off off, but just rotate the sleeve to line it up with the fill port when you want to fill up the gun.When finished rotate the sleeve to close off the port. (Like (among others) the FX Wildcat has it...)

1/2 UNF adaptor over barrel cut down end of barrel 1/2 inch to allow good fit and add this baffle system to it:

https://www.pyramydair.com/s/a/Crosman_NP214_001_Trail_Baffle/7784 - Note the end fits perfectly into the Carbo Fiber tube and seals the end, the inner section has an Oring groove, you need to put one on and drill some holes in the top of the channels made for air to allow the air to flow backwards into the shroud as the 1/2 unf adaptor blocks these natural holes...

Carbon fiber tube:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071FHTS9F/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

End cap bored out to fit over barrel close to breech, this is bored out to fit barrel OD and rests up against a smaller 16mm (I believe) ID carbon fiber sleeve that fits up against the block, this holds the shroud in position, of course I have four drilled holes towards rear in shroud to allow air to come backwards

Hope this helps

Thanks Mike, whether or not I end up trying that, it is great useful information. I sent a plus point in your direction. I am gong to start working on my Urban today by removing the "non-removable" suppressor, it's raining here in Virginia. What is the best way to de-gas this thing before I start, loosen the pressure gauge until it starts hissing?
