I know what quite is now
My 22 cricket has a LDC and my 25 has a LDC , I thought both guns were quiet,
I bought a Mutant shorty, wow this thing is as quiet as my Crickets,
I ordered a 1/2 20 adapter from Dman for my Mutant and sent him a old shroud to see if he could make a LDC out of it.
Long story short the shroud was useless, The 1/2 20 adapter was a work of art, (I already had one and did not no it, DUH)
He sent me a LDC from Donny, FREE, You can not beat that with a stick,
I did not think it was possible to make a PCP gun this QUIET, It makes my Crickets sound like shot guns..
When I first shot it I thought the pellet stuck in the barrel, The sparrow fell over at 48 yards?????
I like quiet because the prey(sparrows are not as spooked)
Nothing really you can do about the pellet hitting the target,
Mouse fart is way to loud for my LDC Mutant shorty, Its called super quiet,
There is a limit to quietness, and I think I have reached it,, The only way to make it quieter is to empty all the air out of the gun and whisper, Bang Bang

It would be more cost effective to just buy a Standard because you get the longer barrel which increases performance.
“How long is this LDC that’s making your short silent.”
It has long been accepted that an LDC needs to be at least 6″ long to be effective. As a general rule, the longer and wider the LDC the quieter it makes the pcp.
Carbon fiber LDC’s generally are 1.5″ wide and variable lengths. CF tubing is very expensive at sizes above 1.5″. Aluminum tubing is less expensive and generally used on the “magnum” LDC’s…mine is 1.75″ wide and 9″ long…it will silence anything up to .25 caliber at max power.
Donny makes CF units. Neil makes both CF and aluminum. You absolutely cannot go wrong with either of these guys!

I will see if I can get some pictures up and compare to my Crickets,
Be this weekend some time, Dam honey do stuff gets in the way of my sport, :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I too have one of donny’s LDC I must say that it is quiet on the shorty but stupid quiet on the standard. I think that I will be ordering another from donny shortly.
Post some pics! How long is this LDC that’s making your short silent.
iride, the standard is super quiet too. has anyone considered fitting a standard shroud/baffles to the shorty?
