I've never seen such a thing and can't say I understand the need to suppress one unless you're talking about one of the steroid pumps but even then it's somewhere in the neighborhood of 900fps only I *think*.

Ive read all his posts. Doesnt quite apply, as this gun has to use eccentric components and work around the fact that the barrel is connected to the pump tube in a way you dont have to with other, more normal, designs

I also didnt want to add length, as the carbine size is one of the things I love about it

Aftrer suppressing my 10/22, shooting my Marauder, the 397 is quite loud. It does have some crack, enough to make it not neighbor friendly, or usable in non-permissive environments....

Some months later.....

Ive been playing with a number of solutions for making the 397 quieter.

The one thing Ive found is to make the shroud large. Internal volume is your friend......
