Hey guys I have a donnyfl ronin and I use it on my 25cal airforce condor. It tames the bark ok and certainly the emperor will do even better. Problem is the raccoons come in at 3am and its still as loud as a drum. I dont think the air stripping is all that good in a donny. Its a very well machined tool but is there a gkkd shroud with real baffles that most people might find overkill. I dont need stealth i need a giant sound dampening monster of a shroud. Im not willing to turn power down or buy a shorter barrel. If i cant find anything ill just get the slightly bigger donny but I know one of u guys can think of something. 
 
my only suggestion since you don't want to turn the power down is to try the ronin/ emperor extender.

https://donnyfl.com/collections/accessories/products/emperor-v3-6-5-inch-extender

it will give you an expansion volume before air enters the Ronin, but it does make it pretty long.

Call a Neil Clague up here by me in Redwood Valley. He can make you whatever you want and they’re quiet. He doesn’t advertise, he doesn’t need to. There are plenty of people on AGN that can attest to the build quality and silencing effect of his products. He can make anything you want...aluminum, titanium, carbon as large or small as you like. Usually done in less than a week and cheaper than most. Do a search on here, you’ll see. Someone just posted a pic of one he got for an Impact a couple days ago.

Mtnghost has had very good things to say about the STO Mus in some of his threads.

An option to look at that I am using right now is the modular Huma in both the 40mm and 30mm diameter. That 40mm performs brilliantly and the machining and internals are excellent. Plus you can add on several modules to get it as quiet as you want.

All that said there seems to be a limit on how quiet things will really go and I'm not sure '3am in the suburbs quiet' for a 0.25 condor really exists?

yes,thank you - if you would please,post back to this thread if you do decide to give the emperor a go, as i have been considering the same route - i've now run through a tatsu , currently a ronin, on what is in use a condor karbine = talonp - condor 22/25 extreme hi flo 490 spinlock tank.. as you spoke,the ronin does a fine job indeed, but a bit more bark than i care to have is still present - and yes,the current prod. talonp is a powerhouse - park the current condor tank on the south end and it's a monster,whole new ballgame - 34 inches of 'man,this is cool' . cheers

Didn't have a problem with Ronin/TalonP until I shot my .25 Mrod side by side. Now mind you Same power level, Mrod is very quiet shrouded + Ldc.

I thought about Emperor or adding 6.5" expander to Ronin, but got in touch with Neil and will try one of his.

Neil is making me a 10" x 1.75" suppressor that he says he uses for .357 Recluse, can't wait to hear what it does.

Yeah neil seems like the obvious choice to try out. I found out that building a silencer or shroud is not inherently illegal and am looking up using the airforce metalshop to build my own. Not airforce airguns, think like united states airforce. Haven't checked it out yet but my dad says he can get us access to the hobby shop. No idea if they have a lathe but ill keep you posted.

I made this design after much research. It combines the shroud and moderator into 1 unit, total length 710mm. It is almost silent, slightly quieter than my old 1984ish .177 BSA Scorpion pistol I have. I may make the end pieces from a homopolymer acetal plastic when weather is crappy. Or some kind of mono core 

oh, my username uses my middle and last initials, no relation to donnyfl lol
