weighting the insides of pistol grips

Well, they look like they came out alright.  Especially if you got the balance point where you wanted it to be.

Good mod sir.

[UKairgunner]

Yes im very pleased with the results.If you use a  2250 balance might not be an issue as your other hand would  naturally be on the front stock so counteracting any imbalance.But if your shooting a 2240 with both hands around the grips and with a longer barrel and sights/uv lights etc attached it might be an idea.
As ever I am guided by function deciding form

Hi mate great idea and one that I'm going to use once I have built my 2240 up, what mod is that? is it pretty quiet ie how does it compare to unmodded and where can I get one please?

hiya mate
Its a swift "stumpy" designed and made by Richard Pope, a Birmingham gunsmith/precision engineer.
They are popular in the UK  for HPA air rifles and FAC air rifles

Because of this they have recently been counterfeited  so you should contact him to check approved suppliers and you can also pick one up from his workshop direct in person for £40,mine is multi chambered with separate screw on sections,its fine engineering from the city which invented engineering and makes a huge difference to the noise

ive not got a sound meter so i cant give any Db figures for reduction but its considerable

his site is   http://www.swiftprecisionrifles.co.uk/

Your post is okay.  We are an international forum so the rules are not too hard-lined regarding information like what you posted.
