That was a LARGE part of me getting the one I did. They are "sound modified" the way they are made so the sound it makes does not really sound like gunfire at any distance. While I could legally shoot here on the property it would no doubt have some neighbors calling 911. They make some fairly nice suppressors for air guns that work quite well and so far don't have to jump through any hoops to build or buy one which is nice. Found one place making an adapter for the model I bought to add an external thread to put a can on. All can be done without the PITA NFA hoops, at least for now.Yeah. I'm not as deep into my setup as @Tlock 's, and hate ever calculating out how much I actually have into 'any' firearm, but probably... 3.5k-ish. Kind of steep for many folks to really "dabble" into the PCP world... if you plan on using one for practical applications.
Not unlike you... I got into them with a purpose in mind. I spend the majority of my time in the outdoors and routinely hunt small game for the stew pot. Some places it's legal to discharge a firearm but that still doesn't stop the perpetually offended from getting their panties in a wad sometimes. As if they weren't already quiet enough... mine is equipped with an additional sound moderator that all you can hear is the valve "click". Making it both quiet enough as to not disturb the ninny's, with the side benefit of also not spooking any additional meat in the area with each shot.
The accuracy is almost scary though and can't lie... it really is quite a hoot to shoot.
