Is there a silencer for this rifle to reduce the sound significantly? Too loud, definitely cannot shoot in the yard.

The initial loud reports are due to dieseling of the manufacturing oil in the barrel. It will burn our after a couple dozen shots. However, it is better to clean the barrel thoroughly before firing. Mine was quiet from the first shot and has been extremely accurate. I have killed over 50 squirrels in 2 months in my backyard. I would have more, but for some reason they seem to have stopped coming around.I found an easy technique for cleaning the barrel online. It uses cotton wads and fishing line.

Not that I know of. The rifle is very loud,but it quiets down after about 20 or so shots. This burns the manufacturing oil out.

It does not have a silencer. None of these break barrel pellet guns do. It has what is called a ported muzzle brake. It is one of the least loud of my four different brands I have. However the first time I shot it with the .177 barrel, it was almost as loud as a 22 Long riffle but that was because it burned off the oil in the barrel. After 2 or three shots, it was quite. I shoot mine in the back yard all of the time. Sometimes for hrs. at a time. I have neighbors all around me. No complaints. Also this gun is dead on and powerful. Great gun! I got mine at Walmart for $99.95.

Don't know about the decibels but it is not very loud. I target shoot in the yard and no one notices. It is louder with a fresh CO2 cartridege but quiets down after a few shots.

Just take your rifle to a gunsmith and have him thread your barrel to accept the desired suppressor. Cheap money and it will look more realistic.

This air rifle is not that "silent". It is as loud as Stoeger X50, louder than HW97K. I do not have tools to measure, so I cannot give you precise decibels.

There is no loud crack sound using the hollow pellet with the crossman air rifle. In fact the sound is not very loud. But it may not be breaking the sound barrier since it's rated at 1000fps and I believe sound is 1116fps.

Too many variables to answer this question. My backyard is pretty big, so my neighbors wouldn't care if I were firing a potato gun. You may have a different terrain than I do (or a different relationship to your neighbors for that matter) my 1/2 acre lot is mostly wooded and hilly. Sound echos and absorbs differently with different natural features. Ask your neighbors if the sound it makes bothers them- that's the only way to know for sure.

seems to have been answered already, but this is louder than my old pumpmaster 760 or my daisy powerline 880. so loud, in fact, that i do not shoot it in the backyard. bummer too, cuz that is why i got it.

The noise you speak of was background noise including wind or even leaves. The real problem for me.was not verifying they shut off when a loud noise such as a gun goes off and of course they do not. If you wear glasses you can forget it. I purchased a Peltor ear muff type with a wire around the back for those who wear hats and I like them.

This is a single shot break barrel type pellet rifle. It is not a quiet pellet rifle as I found out. It seemed almost as loud as a 22 caliber rifle and packs quite a punch for a pellet gun.

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.

If your hoanuse sit on a lot that is over 10,000 sq. foot . I don't think your neighbor can hear the shot that loud to bother he or she too much unless you use your back yard as a daily training. I use mine probably 3 times a week about 30 minutes and never been told that the noise was unacceptable. As far as the other two brands you mention, sorry I don't have experience with them however I bought another brand prior to RWS it was cheaper but faster and louder and the reason I returned was good power but not very accurate. I recommend this one (RWS) smoother trigger and accurate.

I've had this rifle for several months, use it in the garage and have to say it is pretty quiet. It is neighborhood back yard friendly for sure! There are some Youtube reviews that will give you more info on how quiet.

When I first used it I found I had to turn the volume down as I could hear everything including the movement of my clothing. However, mine did block the loud close shots. Hopefully you are only hearing shots further down the firing line. If you turned down the volume and are still not getting your shots muffled then you have a problem with your unit.

I use these at the shooting range to suppress the sound at an indoor range. While shooting my instructor had to get right up next to me to say something for me to hear him. I can't remember if I heard the others shooting for I was concentration on my own shots. It is definitely going to deaden the sound for sure. Good luck studying!!!!

Yes it is loud, breaks the sound barrier every shot. I use/bought the gun for Ground Squirrel control on a horse property. First shot and the Squirrels know what is up and hit their holes. I may try to silence it if possible, but the power and accuracy is great. I recommend the gun, built in Spain, not China and it shows.

Yes it's not bad, i shoot mine in my backyard. It is quieter than my more expensive guns.

Yes it is loud because you are shooting a .22 calibre blank. It is usefull however if you have a hunting dog and you want to train him to be used to the sound of a gun without being shy.
