One can argue about what this proves, or just see it as amusement value:

Must be nice to afford wasting that kind of money and a perfectly GREAT silencer just for a stupid video!
::)
I have 2 of those DonnyFL's and I don't need dumb to tell me they work great!

Silly, yes. I am sure it reduced the top end power on that motor because of the tiny outlet.

Same thing I was thinking. He increased the back pressure and anyone knows that is why we run headers and such.
Then when you mess with air flow in and out of an engine? Ya gotta mess with the jetting!
If fuel injected? There's the computer to mess with.

He measures the sound (at a non precise distance) with the engine at idle.
That is like sound testing a 500 FPE PCP, after detuning it to 25 FPE...
This video is not to be taken seriously.

What did Momma say?
Stupid is as stupid does?

Once a wise man named Forrest Gump said, you can't cure Stupid, Stupid is, Stupid does. LOL
what a joke of an example only to gather some stupid attention on you tube. Man intleigence has come down so much, what can we expect from that kind of people.

The same guy made these videos about airgun shooting and tuning: https://www.youtube.com/c/UpNorthAirGunner/videos (https://www.youtube.com/c/UpNorthAirGunner/videos)
Just because he did a silly thing does not mean he is a complete fool.

Ruining a Donny FL for a video? More money than sense. 8) ;D ;)

Perverse promotion?

I think a lot of airgun videos should be considered “for entertainement value only”

I consider most airgun videos either paid promotions, or bragging :)

He is no fool. He knows his Bc and harmonics. He probably got that Donnyfl for free. Even if he didn't, well worth destroying if it got you guys to watch it and post about it.

Here we go, dont understand why the need to bad mouth this guy. I found him entertaining and the video fun to watch. Seems like a nice guy and I would sit down with him and have a beer any day. I may even give him a couple welding lessons. Dang dudes, lighten up.

"...dont understand why the need to bad mouth this guy..."
dont think its so much,"bad-mouthing" as to more not understanding.... Lot of guys on here would love a DnFL device but cant afford it, and wonder why he'd willfully kill one....
-
Very interesting, but I used this since 2005 on my Honda 500................
It does make a BIG difference........ ;)

Don,
I posted your link as a comment to the video, suggesting a proper ICE silencer would preserve the top-end power better; but the channel settings won't allow links... Can't help them if they won't listen :)

Because he is a content producer. His job is making YouTube videos, entertaining ones, about airguns and related accessories. If his content isn't entertaining, he doesn't make money. $100 is the cost of admission sometimes. But I bet he spent nothing on it..
I have spent much more than $100 for a film before. Every business has a overhead, and sometimes that overhead isn't a building but a product, and other times it is the 15 hours of editing behind it.
I do agree that you guys are having a critical spirit about it; shamming a guy for making an honest buck for producing his own content by his own hard work.

You put yourself out there? Your wide open for opinions. Good or bad.
Does he care? Probably not since he's got cash in his pockets.
I doubt he's an idiot and probably got the Donnyfl free.
I still don't think it was a good way to show how great the Emperor is but what the heck.
IF Donny gave me one for free? I can think of several areas in the construction business I could test it on.

Totally agree. Public figures get criticized more. However, criticism for mounting a DFL on an Engine, a bit misplaced. On AGN they pull these cancel culture threads all the time on Airgun Content producers...waste of everyone's time. Not saying this is the same and I get the sentiment of being wasteful. A DFL is expensive and saying it is a waste to destroy one to prove a point is true too, but if the over exaggeration helps sell more of the product and in turn make other companies compete likewise and in turn drive down the price, it is a win for us too. The more companies mount these to silly objects and sell more and in turn market them well, the cheaper they will be for everyone.
The above isn't directed at anyone fyi. I am just talking about critical threads against YouTubers in general.
