deanothehunter 34 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Just removed the front muzzle weight / open sight tip after some brilliant advise to use a hot hair dryer to warm up and twist off and it worked a treat thanks guys as all the gunshops said oooooh thats a specialist job for gunsmith mmm I think not . I know the use of silencers on recoiling springers isnt brilliant because of the main piston noise can be worse but having said that I have to say this gun is surprisingly quiet action wise but does give a little muzzle crack as they all do. I had a slim line silencer on my old weihrauch hw80 and hw95 and they were very usefull ad effective especially for the rabbits down range which stayed around after a shot where as without silencer were off instantly. This gun is a Stoeger x20 and is very accurate out to 40 yrds putting out around 11.2 - 11.5 ft lb and the stock just stained beech is very good quality and has nice checkering on and has put plenty of quarry in the bag, Im looking for a push on multi baffled silencer if poss or would consider an adapter to take certain types and would even like the end threaded if not too expensive ? The barrel dia measures 15.4mm thick and I know there are various types that would suit including the webley pro system which does 14- 16mm barrels. Its mostly just a personal preference to have one and like the look of one as opposed to without plus in the woods I noticed even with my other springers not everything will scatter once you take a shot but it will without a silencer on, any help much apprciated......Deano Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Have a word with A&M Custom Gunsmiths, they will help you, they also sell the beautifully silent Twinks, Adi is brilliant to deal with and does superb work, how do I know, read my thread about my Super 10!

mikeyblue 28 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Hi Deano, The bloke you want to speak to is called UK Neil. He will machine you one to the diameter of your barrel. His work is second to none, and from my experience as quiet or quieter than the other silencers out there! I will soon have one on its way to my R10 when funds allow! Drop me a PM if you want his number. Kind Regards, Mikey. Quote Link to post

It's illegal to supply a new silencer via post, it has to be a face to face deal via an RFD or a secondhand item. Which if he is making and selling it wont be Darryl Quote Link to post

mikeyblue 28 Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Hi Lads, The Nutshot is shit hot Daz but as mentioned if you arent one of the lucky few they can take a while to get. Hopefully if he outsources manufacture they will become easy to get hold of (I know I would have one!) I have heard a Uk neil silencer and its as quiet as my Weihrauch one to my ears anyway! Hi Darryl, I can assure you Neil is all above board. I deal face to face with him as he doesnt live all that far from me. He also manufactures other items such as air-strippers which many of the top HFT and FT lads use. Mikey. Quote Link to post

A Nutshot Mod for the Masses, If the Springer was Tuned Properly by someone like Sandwell and a Good Mod then it would make a big Difference but a Mod Straight on a Springer will make a small difference Down range but you would hear the Piston and spring slamming forward, So a Tuning and a Decent Mod is about the best Route. regards Daz Quote Link to post
