The Mark 2 with the higher sights makes the use of the “silencer” much better, a real improvement. The sight picture is now clear with its use. I like the forward weight. Also grabbing it as a cocking aid makes cocking easier, to me it’s real purpose. It does change the tone of the discharge to one a little less disturbing? Just lowers the tone? FPS is still 390 with Hobbies, nothing to write home about. This will be my shooter. Kind of a hoot really. Lol just in time for the new Bond film!
