Some flour in the barrel.

So, Americans, does this look real? I assume silenced gun ejects some kind of smoke...
But the thing is that I have no idea about how it is supposed to look.

Baby powder is better.

Sweet gun. Hmm baby powder. Try that and submit another clip. Heh.

It falls when it comes out. Smoke tends to rise and float about. And you need a little bit more of it.

yes, a fan is a very good idea.

I watched the video and decided to do some testing, so I poured flour into a prop silencer and screwed it into one of my airsoft guns and started shooting. The flour didn't work all that well. Then I used baby powder instead--that works very nicely. You get a decent sized puff, and there was enough wind when I was outside playing around with this to make the puff of baby powder float up and away.

Yeah, a fan is a great idea for "forcing" an upward motion of the smoke. But don't use flour; use baby powder!

Uh, yeah, sorry, that's probably just the American name for it. It's talcum powder like Bug said.

No, wait, UFP is right, it's made from babies!
