Yes

I'm not sure who sells aluminum ones. Just stick to a polished one that's plated to prevent corrosion

It's not a concept, it's basic physics. It's reality.

G&P makes it too. I can also order that for you if you need.

Yes, the sound is mostly the sound of the gear teeth engaging each other. Helical gears don't have this sound as much.

See above.

Well... yes. Like I said, quick spring swap ability, spring tension release levers, the ability to split the gun/gearbox for storage, etc.

If you're mashing two materials together, it's common sense that the softer of the two materials would wear down first. Right? Titanium has a high strength to weight ratio, but steel can still be harder than titanium (depending on what grade of steel), which means the titanium teeth would still fail against steel gear teeth. It would just take longer to fail. Anyways, in your scenario, I wouldn't worry too much about that - you should be able to get by with a standard polycarbonate piston just fine.

ALso, I'm not so caring about the sound of the like bam of the piston hitting the cylinder head. I just don't like that zip sound and am considering sorbo pads purely for durability. Unless, more zip sounds come from the piston/cylinder movment too?
|
Systema and Angel Silent Head Sets is a HEAD SET. That means it comes with the silent piston head AND a matching silent cylinder head.

Cuz if they're pretty much the same, then I think I'd rather get taniokoba so taht in outdoor games I'll still have the same bb range, and indoor my fps will be low enough. XD

400 with a Prometheus would have a longer effective range, but that gun won't be usable at most indoors games in Ontario and even across the country. Consider what that particular gun is going to be used for.
