libs Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 how do you strip a hushpower silencer. i have removed the front cap which has the drilled ali. end, how do i get the tube off the barrel? thanks for any help. Are you talking about a full tube mod found on the single Baikal's or something else? If its a full length job, with the gun broken and cleared place the stock between your feet/knees and turn the over barrel mod anti-clockwise very hard and the whole thing should unscrew presenting you with a filthy drilled out tube. If its not a full lenght hushpower disregard everything I have just said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarol Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 (edited) its the full length baikal. took quite a bit of force. is now open. any idea on the baffles? do the holes in the barrel drop the power any?

Andy H Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 The holes vent the pressure off into the moderator chamber and so reduce the muzzle blast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarol Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 but does it reduce the power? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sitsinhedges Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 but does it reduce the power? It can reduce the velocity but not by a huge amount. What kind of range are you shooting at and how many cartridges have you got left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarol Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 up to about 25 yards. about 3 boxes of subsonics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sitsinhedges Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 up to about 25 yards. about 3 boxes of subsonics. Maybe it's time to shoot them at something closer and buy some better cartridges. No fourten is going to have massive range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No fourten is going to have massive range. sripped mine just hollow tube basically but holes in barrel vent gases before end therefore reduce the crack from shot.I regular shoot rabbits at 30 yards with mine but use fiocchi 3" magnum cartridges Edited April 22, 2011 by remmy1100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowen20 Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 I had one and hated it and loved it never thought of taking it to pieces thow I'd just rod the barrel. The best shooting I had with mine was in 3 barns all connected together in a big U shape I was upstairs and it was packed with feral pigeons the owner hadnt been upstairs for years due to the pigeons but was wanting them cleared out so they could use it for god knows what I didnt ask. The **** on the floor was unbelievable anyway the hushpower was so low powered I always used 3 inch magnum carts with it. And I was shooting them off rafters and everything there was a small hole in the peak of the roof where they were trying to get out all at once. And I didn't even break a roof tile that's how low powered it was. I ended up shooting 30 in about 5 mins walking from room to room. The owner contacted me the next day to say I had missed 2 lol they was happy. I'd definitely use 3 inch mags above owt else I shot at bunnies around 30 yards and would have loads just laugh and run off got very frustrating so I sold it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
