Maybe I'll do something over the weekend when I have some more room to maneuver.
The idea is that the BB actually creates back pressure, forming a pseudo air-break for the piston head. Hence it's quieter than blank firing.

though the BBs do indeed reduce the sound of the piston head, with the right crowning of you inner barrel the back pressure is enough to make quite the intimidating report. when i'm not running with a madbull gemtech foam filled silencer, the report coming from my gun has made quite a few people jump. every barrel i get, i re-crown to 5° on a lathe so there is no effect on accuracy. once i put the silencer on, i can shoot at people from 30 feet away and they have no idea where i'm shooting them from. it can be quite funny watching your target flinch, look around and shrug off the shot, only to get a 5 round line stitched down their side. they then call "hit".. stand there looking around, and scratching their welts while still having no idea that i'm practically right next to them.
a quiet gun with a loud report that can be silenced, makes for some fun times.
