    De Twanging

    Much of the "noise" you get with a springer is mechanical noise. Especially when shooting it and various parts of your good self are in contact with the gun. Always a good idea to let someone shoot your gun whilst you stand a few feet away and listen to get an idea how "noisy" it really is. If the twang (if present) did start to bug you, the de-twang is routine and straightforward.

    But, it must be said, nicely tuned, de-twanged and silenced = very quiet.
    I think I would like De-twanging Possibly silencing too

    Been having some good fun in the back yard but quite aware of the noise hence the thoughts of a pfft!

    Yep, someone at the shop said you could do with a good de-twanging, David!

    If you decide on a de-twang at some point, they're dead easy to work on and I know you'd be well capable of doing the fettle.

    If you're not doing so already, a nice quiet backstop / pellet trap works wonders.....Argos catalogue, concrete / slab enclosure filled with sand, a large cardboard box stuffed tightly with old clothes / rubber mulch will all be good.
