Can anyone tell me if the IBEX comes with Dissipater bars sound and recoil suppression system. The web site for Excalibur says nothing about it.

No. The Ibex does not come with the Dissipator sound suppression system! As a recent buyer of the same crossbow through Amazon the Dissipator system must be purchased seperately and installed by you. From what I gather it's not worth it as it adds additional weight, must be removed during lonf periods of storage or the Dissipator pads will be ruined and it really doesn't make it that much quieter. Trust me when I say that the crossbow may sound loud to you its because your head (and ears) are very close to the crossbow and the Ibex is extremely accurate and no animal is going to "jump" the string if you plan and place your shot carefully! It is a great crossbow exactly as it is!!!! No. The Ibex does not come with the Dissipator sound suppression system!

No,I purchased the dissipater bars and suppression system separately..........................
2068045
no it does not. the ibex model is one of their entry level bows which lacks all the goodies like the supression systems. it is a great bow though, I absolutly love it, they are not as loud as you think even without the supression
2068046
It does not. I have this bow, it's an entry level Excalibur, dissipator bars can be added.
2068047
It did not but I purchased the recoil suppressor as an add-on and was easy to install.
2068048
It doesnt come with the Dissipator bars. You would need to get them separately. I have them on my Vortex and yes they might help sound but recoil really shouldnt be an issue with the Ibex.
2068049
No it does not have any kind sound or recoil supression. But it is Not loud. A friend bought a silencer for his but he says it really did'nt make much of a difference.

Yes it does, it actually keeps you on target and helps mitigate up and down movement. I had a A2 birdcage flash hider on my upper before I installed the Dynacomp and after I installed it I noticed a big difference in felt recoil and upward and downward movement after shots fired.

Does Not have the crosman piston, but what Gamo calls the IGT (inert gas TeK). Don't know what the difference is, but it's likely very similar. I have had nothing but trouble with my Gamo whisper and don't recommend them. Recoil is high and it's hard to keep the scope zero. Hell it even shook the open sights loose on my rifle. Save your money and get a RWS model.

that would depend entirely on the gun used. It doesn't reduce noise in my 2400kt, from which the noise comes from expanding gas at the end of the muzzle. very few .22 airguns are capable of breaking the sound barrier and I'd be willing to bet a suppressor would be more beneficial in your case.In my particular gun, I lose about 150 feet per second but gain roughly 4 ft-lbs using these pellets.

You answered your own question! Should reduce felt recoil a bit but be aware that the cheap material they use as a buffer will mushroom and hang up on your spring after 3 boxes of ammo!!!!!

No the guide rod is a separate purchase, but it is well worth the money. Felt recoil is almost non-existent and accuracy is improved greatly.

Any kind! I have an Exclibur Scope on mine but my wife has a three-dot (red) scope on hers for 20, 30, 40 yards. the three-dot sights are much better than a single dot! A single dot scope still requires you to guess where to hold the single dot on your target, whereas a three-dot, sighted in properly, removes the guessing! You can mount any scope you want on the Ibex and I would recommend visiting Excalibur's website! The Ibex is an extremely accurate crossbow and pure quality with very little maintenance or tuning required, unlike compound crossbows!

It helps a little bit with the flash but its more designed to reduce recoil and muzzle jump. There are definitely better devices on the market.One thing to note is there is an annoying ringing noise after each shot. I read online that you can dremel parts of the break to get rid of this problem but you get what you pay for and in the end the device does look pretty cool.

the silencer Is just for show, its worthless if you are thinking about getting it because its quiet. Its like any other airsoft pistol when it comes to the noise

Yes it does. Save your money though, I found this to preform marginal at best and got intermittent failures. Can't handle the recoil and light goes out. Not because the slide bar slips, because the unit itself will not seat firmly on barrel seat. Great idea but way too expensive for how it works. Don't buy it. Look for a rail mount like the Viridian

My first air rifle was a pumpmaster. The hornet is much louder, as is any break barrel rifle. It's not so loud that it will cause problems, I shoot in my backyard daily, but it is a serious rifle, so it makes a bit of noise at the action, and light ammo may make a super sonic clap.

I would think an upgrade would be possible on this bow. The rail is plenty long enough to accommodate many scope brands and lengths. The only issue I could see you having is would the range compensation markers be calibrated for this bow. The tact zone scope from excalibur is already tuned to the 380 fps of the matrix 380 bow.

Sorry. No idea. I use mine at home to get extra trigger time without spending $20+ at the range.

Not a good choice. I bought a stock that has a internal spring system. Firm enough to steady the shot but does relieve the recoil. I have it on an AK-47, but I think it would be more effective for a shotgun. Not cheap. Over $100 but not cheaply made.

No. The upgrade actually caused more problems than it solved. With this upgrade you need to also upgrade the trigger box. In the end, you've spent more on upgrades than the rifle was worth to start with. My advice: Send the BBTac back and upgrade to a better rifle to start with.

Check Excalibur.com for warranty info. I hunted last season with mine as a first time bow hunter. Put two in the freezer. Get you a target and zero the scope at 20 yards......shot my deer at 30 yards. Arrow went exactly where I aimed and blew right thru both lungs. Both deer ran less than 30 yrds. You will love the Excalibur. Don't settle for any other brand. That's my $.02 worth.
