duck 0 Posted June 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 hello duck....yes you will have to re-zero.........the silencer will make the pellets go off line slightly..the alternative is to line the silencer up with the barrel....using a .22 rod (or.177) then re-zero. hope this helps mate.?? their quiet arn't they!!!! cheers sean cheers sean i wasn't quite sure if you had to zero them in so thought of you guys lol, yes there really quiet well worth the money hope this works thanks the duck Quote Link to post

half n' half 8 Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 sounds almost certain its out of line and clipping. you could try loosening and turning the silencer adaptor. i'm guessing its a .22 gun.if its a .177 its way out of line. if the turning doesn't work you can gently file the silencer down on same side as the clipping where it joins the adaptor which will pull the silencer over giving it enough clearance.

Coney 3 Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Take it back mate with the gun and see if they can set it up it will only cost you a couple of quid and it's better than trying to do it yourself if you are getting nowhere. Good luck Coney. Quote Link to post

fraggle 4 Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 on silencer topic, when i look through my silencer i can see some threads i take its wadding or how ever you spell it. Dose not seem to effect the aim but should i be able to see them. Quote Link to post
