    Hushed HW100k

    Leaving aside the "why bother" and "pellet hitting the target/pellet flight makes more noise" angles....

    Can you make an HW100k silent, or practically silent in operation?
    Not so much the cocking noise but the hammer action and at the pointy end?
    Anyone tried a ridiculously oversized mod for zero exit pop?

    Doubt that the noise your hearing is muzzle report to be honest.. Its probably the action.
    Anyway why bother, the sound of the pellet hitting the target makes more noise .
    Sorry couldn't resist!

    There’s always one 😆
    It has a standard weihrauch mod, pretty good but I’ll bet it could be better

    I have a A+M Marksman (the big one!) on my mk1 .22 and it’s very effective - just a bit more than the HW standard mod. I have tried a whole host of mods and the longer A+M was defo the best. I wonder if you could add ‘silent pips’ to the hammer like on rapids? But generally I think HW100s are very quiet ‘out of the box’. I once had a newer model in 177 and also thought that was very quiet too with the standard HW mod. I think the longer barrel models will always be quieter than the carbine rifles.

    A&M Nelix mod is the best I’ve used.
    Tried the Hugget Belitia but it was rubbish on my HW100KT in .20 but very good on my rapid in .20.
    Work that one out if you can ha ha

    The HW100 action is quiet, try listen to a Hatsan action, or a BSA one.
