    If not available from the usual spares suppliers, maybe worth trying Air Arms directly?

    Does the AA TX HC screw-in plenum insert fit the Prosport?

    As far as I know, the prosport has never had a threaded end, maybe a previous owner removed the original end plug and baffles, so they could thread it for a silencer.

    I would agree - I've just had a look at mine.

    The inside of the shroud is plain, with the end baffle inset about 3mm down.... If I could send a photo I would - however I've never succeeded with that process

    Cheers Steve

    Maybe somebody put the HC shroud on a PS.

    yeah, sounds like a modification - not a bad one either if done accurately. Just find a compact male threaded silencer.
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    Just had a reply from air arms, they seem to think I have lost a baffle and have asked for a photo, so will do and see what they say

    I replaced my shroud a couple of years ago and there was no thread on the old one or the new one, I seem to remember there are 5 baffles in the end.
