jeppi26 1,855 Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 What are you AA users useing for your mod? I am useing a whisper mod at the moment but have been looking at upgadeing to q-tec mod been wTching reviews on YouTube and really thinking of getting one. Does any of you lads/lasses use one if so what do you think are thay as good as as the reviews make out thay are?? The best on the market?? Quote Link to post
shergar 42 Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 using the tx585 on my s510 find it very quiet , I won't be upgrading just to get a couple of db quieter , I bet with the naked ear you won't be able to hear much difference and at 30yrds probably make no difference , unless I can try one and find out it's a lot better then I would probably get one .

jamesS410 106 Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Realistically it doesn't matter what silencer you use, with 90% of them the sound of lead on head is louder than the report of the gun so unless you're prone to missing and need a second shot a quieter mod isn't going to give you bigger bags 2 Quote Link to post
shergar 42 Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 I agree with James , on one of my posh garden permissions which was over run with rabbits I managed to shoot four in very quick succession before the rest of them figured out what was happening and buggered off I Don't think a slightly quieter moderator would of made any difference they still didn't know where the danger was coming from. Save your brass and stick with what you have. 1 Quote Link to post
bunnybuster3000 73 Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 I bought one the other day for my AA s510 Xtra FAC and when I put it on my gun shoots ten inches low. Quote Link to post
shergar 42 Posted October 31, 2014 Report Share Posted October 31, 2014 At what range are you shooting . On my s510 @40 yards notice no real difference but at range I do think it groups tighter with the moderator on . Maybe the calibre specific mod scrubs some velocity off . Even though it's shooting 10 inches low is it still consistent? Quote Link to post

Even though it's shooting 10 inches low is it still consistent? There's no difference in power I put it over ther chrony and still shoots the same power just sent it back toady I think the pellet may be clipping one of the baffles inside because the groups drop 10 inches and open up to about 3 inches.

jeppi26 1,855 Posted November 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 Right mind made up I av just been and got a hw mod as I have one on my bsa a lot lighter than the q-tec aswell and £25 Cheeper Quote Link to post
shergar 42 Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 And quite a bit smaller . After watching the guy from south Africa on you tube comparing the q-Tec to the tx 585 mods the q-Tec looks a lot larger and a bit longer and the last thing the extra fac needs is to be LONGER .

jeppi26 1,855 Posted November 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 The q-tec mod is the same size as the hw mod 2:40 in to vid Quote Link to post
