NP,
      Anthony Story Makes Custom LDCs That Change The Music Rather Amazing. His Quality is second to none. Here is his
      E-Mail if you are interested. He Will send you Pictures of his work so yo can see the Craftsmanship. He is also a Big Bore
      Rifle owner with his own needs to keep the Music Down for the neighbors. The custom LDCs Anthony Makes also do not
      change the Performance in a negative. Here is Anthony Story E-Mail ( "Anthony Storey" <selectivesalessrvc@sbcglobal.net>)
      And this is his Cell #  317-925-5544 . I paid $85 for my Sam Yang 909s and it has changed the Music to Just about 1/2.
      His LDCs are a work of art and They look Awesome. These Truthfully make a huge difference. You will see his Products
      on the Yellow & American every now and then also. Anthony Reputation is Rock Solid. Anthony Story made a .22 cal LDC
      @ 9 1/2" long , It added 7 1/2" OAL To the Rifle. The Outside diameter is 1.25". This one fits my Evanix barrel and has 3
      set  screws to mount it to the Barrel .I Have it on my Evanix Renegade Carbine. My carbine went from REAL LOUD, To
      where I could only hear the hammer open the valve and the pellet hit its Target. My Evanix Renegade Carbine was a really
      LOUD Rifle.


                                                                         Jetman.

The method in this other post works reasonably well.

Hi,

http://www.luchtbuks.com/luchtbuks/index.php?page=winkel.php&detail=1377 (http://www.luchtbuks.com/luchtbuks/index.php?page=winkel.php&detail=1377)

I bought this one and used the shell, removed the inside.

I bought spacers at the local shop and metal haircurlers and used the top of  the scotsh brite like material.

To prevent the blast damaging the inside i glued the spacers on the haicurlers and made the 3 parts (two normal, one small) that long that the inside is locked tight when the top is screwed on.

I had someone machine a part to make the LDC fit the fire 202s

This makes the fire 202s  reasonably quiet. At a shooting range.
I have say that it makes a difference if the pellet fits tight; those are the most silent.
Roundballs .362

regards

Does anyone know the threads on the Dragon claw .50 barrel?
I have tested several but I have not found out what it is?
