I bought one of the Type 1's on Monday, and already have it in the mail in Okla. City on Wed......not bad -----Wow this thing is light!
Replaced the Weihrauch LDC on my .22 Brocock Compatto to give it a try. (I seem to test everything on my Compatto) First shot aimed at middle of pellet trap was pretty quiet.
I finished the magazine at my backyard 25 yd. range.... POI was good...quarter size group with shooting sticks while sitting on a bucket.
I don't know about you, but I have a hard time telling quiet from quiet, so I have a phone app "Sound Meter" than reads in decibels. It's probably not scientific, but it gives me a benchmark. The printed moderator read 60 db, ---my Weihrauch did 63db ---Huggett Belito did 67db --- N. Clague did 58db -- these readings were all on the Compatto today.
I'm sure that different set-ups will yield different results. I have no Idea about the durability, but It seems this is a pretty good moderator for the $$$.
