FX Wildcat .25 - Sound in block

This comes up all the time re: FX guns. The design of their hammer/spring system lets the hammer remain "loose" (not under constant spring pressure). There is a VERY good reason for this. It eliminates hammer bounce (wasted air) and that horrible PING you hear on other PCP rifles. The downside is that it can create a rattle sound when the gun is not cocked. The hammer is sliding back and forth. When the gun is cocked, the hammer is under spring tension - hence, no rattling sound.
