    Moderator for RWS 34

    I started with a tanto on my 2240. IT cut the noise by about 50%. I traded it in on sumo. It was a world of difference. Seriously, it was like a whole different gun. Maybe try a larger model. Thanks for the advice.

    Yeah I know a Springer is loud.....BUT I have faith in Donny Fl. The guy is amazing. His sumo made a 2240 mouse fart quiet indoors. (Seriously, unpaid endorsement, if you want a moderator, buy DonnyFl. They are pricy, but they make everything else look like junk. Just buy one and you will be...

    Benjamin Discovery with co2?

    PS Noise is a huge issue. I just dropped $150 on a Donny Fl LDC. It turned a crossman 2240 to mouse fart quiet in the sumo. No joke, I am visiting my old man. The thing comes in the mail yesterday. I screw it on (the 2240 is obnoxiously loud) and I, being the not so good son, decide to to...

    Benjamin Discovery with co2?

    I am thinking about going PCP, but I say no to $200 pumps or scuba tanks, to avoid those I will stick with an RWS Springer or Valiant nitro piston. But......the idea of the disco, that I can fill from a couple of cheap paintball tanks is enticing. So, has anyone used one of these with co2? Does...

    Safe Urban Hunting

    Bulldog Muchos gracias for this post! It is so hard to know what's legal even the cops get confused as one suburb bleeds into another. In my Dad's case he lives where the Everglades NP, Big Cypress Preserve and Fakkaunion State forest converge. Three sets of regulations within a half mile.😮 ...

    HI, NEWBIE HERE NEED HELP!

    Thanks for the post iron lion. Solid advice. I am going to go with the Crossman valiant in .22. It's a good company, the reviews are solid and for $180 how bad can it be? Worst case I will have a new toy to play with until the neighbors complain and then it will show up in the classifieds. But...

    HI, NEWBIE HERE NEED HELP!

    ROFL! Seriously though? Silencers are class III stuff. Pay two bills on the tax stamp and it's legal. Don't and it's ten years in club fed. The odds of BATF showing up on your door over airguns are up there with getting eaten by a shark. Still...I am a libertarian for a reason and I don't want...

    HI, NEWBIE HERE NEED HELP!

    Yeah and amen. I get ( got) about 765 on a chrony with Crossman premires, but that was a few years ago. Lord knows now. Seriouly, if you want good knowledge on 1990s airguns, like the RWS or Crossman 2240 or the .20 Benjamin pumps, I am your guy but I am at sea with the new stuff. I cannot...

    HI, NEWBIE HERE NEED HELP!

    Cool, I didn't mean to sound condecending, you just said you were new to air rifles, so sorry about telling you what you already knew. Also, at the risk of sounding like a grumpy old man (I'm only 49) Things were made better back then. Made in USA or made in West Germany meant exactly that. Not...

    HI, NEWBIE HERE NEED HELP!

    Survivor 45 I feel I might have misled you a bit on this gun. Every good thing I said was true....BUT.... I will repeat... BUT!!!!! You need to break it in! Buy a five hundred round tin of pellets and shoot them with iron sights. Don't care where they go, just put about 100 down range. That...

    Orion Where are you in So Fl? I am in PBC and looking for places to hunt. Any advice on getting landowner permission? Thanks!

    HI, NEWBIE HERE NEED HELP!

    Thanks, marflow. But legal issues aside. Rule 1 never talk about fight club Rule 2 never talk about rule one.😁 The noise from a spring piston is from the action, not the pellet, though, I may be wrong. New house with zero lot lines, and I have never had to deal with this before, with my...

    HI, NEWBIE HERE NEED HELP!

    I bought it when the elder and smarter Bush was president. It's stamped made in West Germany. 😄 Seriously, after thirty years, and no maintenance beyond some pell gun oil on cleaning pellets it will still knock a tree rat out at thirty yards. It shoots a 14.3 at close to 800 fps. I love that...

    Iguanas

    I know folks eat them I'm sure they taste like chicken, but the more you chew, the more they taste like iguana.😉 Still, and no joke, they do carry salmonella. So I don't eat them, but if I did I would go for well done and research how to clean them. Apparently it's the feces that carry the...

    HI, NEWBIE HERE NEED HELP!

    I am looking at buying a .22 Crossman valiant for iguana contro l. I need something quiet that will give me an honest 800 fps with heavy lead. I have an RWS 34 that I love but it's too loud. I am sure there are reviews on the board, but I can't get the search engine to work beyond looking at...
