hi bud well its a 16mm dia barrel the storm but if you grasp the carbon fiber outer of the silencer and unscrew it it has an female thread, get a male male adapter and away you go!! you could get a super quiet weihrauch or i got a SAK silencer. the main problem with the ''noise'' you get from a storm or any gunpower is from the spring action forcing the hammer hitting the breech that then depressing the top hat and releasing the air. i found a person who will ''mill'' the hammer to suit a large 'o'ring to soften that thud...... will let you know how i get on!!

well i have only heard good reviews about the hammer o ring mod, if it was to drop the power by a smig you could always adjust the top hat out slightly but i dought it would!! most of the internals apart from the barrel have been scrapped with mine, its got a high tensile ss spring, custom built hammer, modified breech and new solid ss top hat with o ring mod to the valve stem assembly..... all done by a gunsmith called drum. its smooth as silk now!! yeah i think you will be very happy with the weihrauch silencer and will let u know how i get on!!

yea sounds like the mods i,m gonna get done by drum his stuff looks amazing.i am going to get a custom made 24 inch barrel made by him too.i have a new spring and hammer on the way ,not from drum but i will be trying hammers from him too and i am def going to have the valve mod done,maybe get a drum valve stem to go with his top hat.is it drum thats going to mod your hammer?did you get the side cocking breech from drum,if so what like do you think its worth doing,spose its only 55 quid i might give that a go too.ok alex thanks for your help yet again your a top bloke

no worries john and yeah it would be drum doing the hammer o ring mod.... 24inch barrel..... that sounds interesting!! might have to have a look at that!! i have seen a couple of the side cocking conversions and they look good if i would have one done i would get it done on the left side as you could cock it and insert pellet without taking your hand off the grip but i do that anyway now so....? would rather spend the dollar on a 24"barrel!! you'll have up load some pics john!!
