I got my kid a Gamo .22 break barrel Maxxim air rifle for Christmas one year. He was pretty stoked.

It's ridiculously cool, 50 cal at 1100 FPS... that's insane stopping power for an air gun.

Wow, I didn't see that it's a supersonic 50 cal. Okay, that's not cool, that's insane! How many shots per canister? I'm going to go read the details. I may need one of these for myself.

Edit: only 4 shots per canister, so that's not great, but it's insanely powerful for an air rifle, and I'm sure you can probably get a bigger canister for target practice. I wonder if you can get a threaded barrel for a suppressor, or muzzle brake.

It's an air rifle, I wonder what how effective a suppressor would even be?

I have no idea how loud that thing is, I don't own it... although I really want to

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

The suppressor will cut down on the sonic boom from the ammo going supersonic. It works great on the Gamo Magnum and Maxxim air rifles. They're not huge suppressors like on a firearm, but they're big enough that you can shoot the rifle without bothering people or needing hearing protection.

That's really cool, I had no idea there was commercial silencers. I actually own one of those
