silencer will it make a world of difference

[Richard Morgan 38]

will a silencer make a major difference to a spring gun in this case the tx200 as thinking of getting a hw one and adaptor tomorrow not cheap however would it be worth the investment cheers.

Yes as it will reduce the muzzle noise, but you still here the spring twanging back

do you think its worth an extra 70 quid

[BEARINATOR 2,869]

Yes mate, unless you can find one cheaper

[Richard Morgan 38]

cheers mate not to twangy but still abit much of a crack off the gun will be worth the investment then atb

i have a standard hw97kt and i got my mate to fire it today when i was stood 65 yards away it wasnt too offensive. the pellet hitting the target was a lot louder

Is yours an HC Carbine Richard? That has a threaded sleeve to fit an adaptor and silencer. I have a .177 TX200HC and prefer it without. It makes very little difference as the rifle is almost silent at 30 yards and soundless thereafter. The standard MkIII rifle I also have, has no threaded end and cannot take one. Unless there's another method I've not heard of. I think you do not need one.

 

Regards.

What about a slip on silencer with a grub screw?

[pianoman 3,587]

Over a Bull- Barrel and latch-block Lewis? I don't think there is one that will fit a TX200.

[Lewis Ste 245]

All right smart arse just need afew adaptations and twill be fine, give me hacksaw and drill il make it fit and okay maybe a welder to

[Richard Morgan 38]

mines a 22 simon its got a threaded end the lad in the shop gave me all the speal about the little plastic sound moderator that comes as standard it would be an adaptor onto a hw silencer its not a loud gun as such i might try and hang on to my 70 quid for now an see how it goes

[BEARINATOR 2,869]

Richard why don't you get the air arms silencer instead of the hw as it's only £49

is it as good as hw and i think its a similar price mate plus i dont think he stocks it as standard would have to wait a week or more i know that sounds crap but i do like hw stuff

[BEARINATOR 2,869]

Yes mate, my friend has a tx with one on and it's ok, not sure what price Bagnall & kirkwood charge for them though

i might pop through my local two canny shops round here see what they have to offer if the air arms silencer does the same job for less all the better i bought the gun as i thought it stood up well to the hw97 buying english can sometimes be a good thing its been a while since i could say that cheers for replys lads atb.
