FX Bobcat .25 with Hugget Moderator

Killzone- great Intel. Much appreciated. Guess I need to rewatch some of the videos oUT there. Could have sworn ted mentioned 3 powers and was using a mk2. Maybe it was a special piece for him only. Or I simply Made a mistake in the information I was gleaning as I watched late night.


Any videos of you shooting or sound differences? Down range and close up as shooters perspective and targets perspective?

Youtube videos are elusive on the bobcat
 
Micbro-
In the US the laws are different. All Huggett Shrouds and the Belita’s, Magna’s, etc. are bonded (Glued together). It has to be done at AOA the Huggett US Distributor. 


Shrouds and LDC's do NOT have to be bonded together, it is being done because years ago dealers were paranoid about these being in a grey area. Now almost 4 years later you see many manufacturers are shipping guns to the USA with easily removed LDC's on them. I think that is because they have seen nothing has happened to makers like myself and they feel more comfortable in getting their feet wet and shipping them to the USA, Neil.
 
"mp.l.aguiar"Hi all... I'm new at the Forum, so , be patient! :0)

I'm about to buy a Bobcat MK2 .22 at AoA. I know you are talking about a .25, but I really need this gum to be very quiet. So, in your opinion, should I buy the BC MK2 with the additional moderator? If yes, what model should it be?

Thank you a lot!

I have a Bobcat Mk2 in .22. The Hugget makes a big difference how loud the gun is compared to how it comes from the factory. It takes just 15 seconds to install. I bought mine from Precision Airguns and Supplies.

Sorry for the late reply Hunter. I only just saw your question. To answer your question, the actual shroud that covers the length of the barrel is not bonded and can be removed with some effort. AOA posted a video on how to remove the shroud. As for the Huggett, it simply screws onto the end of the shroud and mine was not bonded.

Just a little update. I've shot a few thousand pellets through my Bobcat .25 MK2 with the Hugget moderator now and decided that I wanted to give another LDC a try for comparison. I ordered the LDC from Neil Clague and it arrived in about a week after providing him with some basic measurements. It twists onto the 20mm threads just like the Hugget but it also covers a few inches of the shroud. Overall length is about an inch longer than the Hugget.

To be honest, from the shooters perspective I can't tell the difference at all, but my wife from inside the house says that Neil's LDC is a little quieter. I still use the Hugget but only because it is a tad shorter. The Bobcat .25 with the Hugget is already too long for my liking for what is suppose to be a bullpup or carbine.

Thanks for the update. I have my Bobcat .30 on the way to get the Huggett installed and hopefully get it back late next week. I will have to keep Neil in mind next time.
 
"keysersoze"Mic it has to do with the NFA (national firearms act) of 1934. This federal law regulates suppressors, short barreled rifles and fully automatic assault weapons. It requires a tax stamp of 200 dollars. There is a real grey area regarding what actually makes a moderator.
