Toombsy Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Is there a sound moderator out there that is capable of fully silencing an HMR rimfire? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy. Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 (edited) Absolutely impossible. It shoots a supersonic round, you cannot silence that. No gun is 100% silent, even my .22LR with a £200 pes sound mod still makes a sound, even using subsonic ammo.

Toombsy Posted February 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Thanks mate. I thought as much as it's bound to let off a sonic crack/boom, but I had to ask as I'm not totally up to speed with sound mods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought as much as it's bound to let off a sonic crack/boom, but I had to ask as I'm not totally up to speed with sound mods. It's ok. It's a common misconception that guns are made silent, using "silencers" like they are in the movies. There are some mods out there that will take away the majority of the bang. (you'll certainly notice the difference once you take it off and shoot it!) If you're after a really quiet gun, a .22lr with a decent mod is perfect. I did post earlier in a similar thread and posted a link about the difference and a timing in the film when you hear the sonic crack. Here: 1:45 into the movie, you'll hear it Edited February 9, 2009 by harfordwmj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
