The pellet and spring is a lot louder than the report.

I have never tried to hide how I make my shrouds, if you have the ability to do it, you should make your own.

The 4th pic down is a M baffle. the fifth pic down is a k baffle.

I have made several type of baffles and inserts for air guns. The K baffle is very effective for a rim fire, but not for airguns. The M baffle works the best for air rifles.

If this is the oring that you are talking about, you should be able to find one at the hardware store. I replaced mine with an oring out of a universal oring kit.

I believe with out looking, the only other oring is the one one the scuba tank valve.
