Silencing a 2240

[All Day Bing]

Gentlemen, I'd like to fit a silencer to my daughter's 2240 and I wonder if I might pick a few expert brains on the subject.

Could anyone recommend the best way of going about it:

- A UNF adapter + (The silencer of your choice)?

- A grub screw fitted moderator?

- A grub screw fitted barrel brake?

I'd like it to be as quiet as possible with the minimum impact on performance and I don't mind spending a few quid on nice kit if it does the job (it's my only vice).

I'm aware of the SD Custom site for some of the kit but any other sources would be nice to know. There's also a lad doing some great looking brass Crosman kit here on the Group Buys that I might try.

Also: As I understand it, you simply tap the foresight off to fit any of the above. Please stop me if I'm wrong on that score!

Many thanks for taking the the time.

John.

Hi John

quite correct about front sight,just taps off.

For max quietness,
get an adapter to fit any 1/2" unf silencer to it,
many on here as you say.

Just about the best (quietest)silencers you can use then are the Weihrauch or the Logun QGS

HIH
and good luck,

UK Neil (on BBS) will make you an adapter for peanuts then either get your own silencer as above Weihrauch etc or get Neil to make you one of his (shorter and better for a pistol). Although, as it's CO2 and you get leakage at the breech on these pistols, it won't be silenced totally.

I had a UK Neil silencer and adapter on my 2250 and 2240...silenced them to a "phut"!!....highly recommended...

I love this site...

I'm a relative newby but I've long suspected that UKNeil is a bit of a legend from his hints and tips alone. I didn't realise he did stuff like this to order.

I'd certainly much rather give my money to him than...Ze Germans. I'll drop him a PM.

Lads, sincere thanks.

John.

Hi John, Now you will have a nice quiet 2240, why don't you join the UBC (Umarex Boys Club) and shoot a few of our competitions. it's good practise and the guy's & gal's in the gang are a great bunch. Just send me a tag-line like the ones you can see in members section of the website and i'll add you to the Gang.

Happy Shooting

Jason
