    Thanks David. If they make a decent improvement I might invest in one.
    I could do with it being a bit quieter for garden plinking but the trouble is fitting a silencer means losing the front sight, so I'd need a scope, which means fitting the steel breech kit.
    It'll end up costing more than the gun did!

    GMac do a brass silencer adapter with a sight pin.
    I have a couple and they work well.

    You can trim the height of the brass pin to suit but I use an HW silencer with the pin as supplied and it's v accurate.
    Hilariously silent too.

    Had exactly the same issue and ended up with a steel breech and red dot. As suggested you can get silencer adaptors with pins, I got one with TWO grub screws, used one to attach to barrel and had a threaded rod in the other as a sight pin. You need to watch the diameter of the silencer for this to work, I'd say < 30mm silencer diameter

    What seems to be wrong with it? These are so simple to work on I guess once we know the fault you'll have an avalanche of replies
