I've found a company Air-Fective Tuning that seem to do good silencers but they don't answer the phone or reply to messages. There is a Vermin Hunters YouTube video around the P15 but I cant track down the barrel shroud they recommend. Please help.
Just a small point but the whack of the pellet usually makes a louder noise than the sound of the shot and will be nearer to your targets immediate neighbours than you will be.

The quietest gun I ever shot was a daystate air wolf many years ago. It was really quiet. 6 feet away and you were not sure if the gun had discharged.... You certainly heard the impact though when lead hit cranium.

I think you will struggle to find uber quiet and super cheap tbh but good luck.
