inderraj Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 Hey guys, Just A quick question, Ive seen a few shotguns around that have silencers (hushpower etc) and was wandering if there is anywhere in the UK i can go to get a Silencer made/premade for a semi automatic shotgun e.g. Outlander A300. Any advice would be more than welcome Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rimmie Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 I think the saddlery and gun room will be your best bet ? I'm pretty sure there the main hush power dealers. Google the name and give them a bell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkj7176 Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 To make moderators work you need subsonic carts, don't think they will have enough umps to cycle a semi. That why you tend to see pump hushpowers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theshootist Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Also if you have a gun you want to use without the moderator then you need a spare barrel so that it can be ported (holes drilled down its length) and the bottom end of the moderator brazed on. There is a slip on moderator but only in .410 I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That why you tend to see pump hushpowers Err no you don't , yes subsonic will be quieter but a moderated shotgun will also make a standard cartridge much less noisey.

Guest cookoff013 Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 also at 1/3rd less speed, shotsize needs to be upped to increase the effectiveness of shells. i`ve used #6 subs at clays alot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. Unless you really need to be quiet using standard shells makes more sense to me. There have been a few 20b/12b semi hushpowers sold over the years but I've still not heard first hand reports of how they cycle and with what.

kent Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Saddlery and gunroom make these things to muzzle mount. The rib will need removing though and I think the fact that the full length conversions bleed off gasses I suspect this might create issues as regards a gas op auto. 9-10" Muzzle can is just under £200 I think, they fit with a bush and collet system If you want a moderated shotgun they do convert Lincoln and Berretta o/u types to a full length system, for a serious moderated gun this should be my choice personally or just go for a std off the peg FL mossy pump or Baikel single as the cheaper option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
