Anyone try Hajimoto strip stack mod?

A friend of mine got the eBay version of the stack moderator for the Gauntlet, it really quieted the bark of the .25 cal compared to the cigar style baffle it came with.

Painterman,
Sorry, didn't click what you were referring to, would have replied sooner. Few years back bought first PCP, Umarex Gauntlet .25 and watched Hajimoto videos to learn internals. First mod was replacing "cigar" style baffle with 4 plastic baffles found on eBay for $15. Like MMCM13 said, hushed up the bark. Baffle stack so much better than "cigar", Umarex installed on Gen 2 Gauntlets. Recently tried a BuckRail moderator on the Gauntlet but returned to baffle stack as more effective. Pictures shows all three versions, longest one is screw-in BuckRail. WM

Thanks for your reply. Did you drill the relief holes in the bottom of the shroud?
The Average has nothing between the end of the barrel and the shroud.

No, never got around to drilling those holes and inserting "Mr. Clean" sponge circular cut-out shown in Hajimoto's video. Not that it wouldn't have helped, just realized Gauntlet was too long and heavy to ever be my desired all-day hunter. Next PCP was an FX Wildcat MK3 Sniper .30, much better choice. WM

Daystate released the Renegade and the Pulsar about 2016 with similar baffles in the shroud ! Nothing new.
I installed some Daystate baffles and the spring into my RTI Prophet Performance, Compact (.22 cal). Worked out very nicely. No need for an add-on suppressor. The cats sleep right through my shooting !

Painter,
DonnyFL has a replacement end cap for the Avenger shroud that helps to steady the barrel, doesn't do anything about noise but might be worth looking into. Try DonnyFL website for more information. Best of Luck, WM

Hey there!
My system actually adds a functional air stripper into the mix as well as a tuned baffle stack to break up and disrupt any harmonics. If you watch a video I did many years ago when I describe the two major benefits of air strippers and baffles, you come away knowing that I focus more on air stream conditioning than sound mitigation.
While I like sound reduction, it is not my main goal but a pretty acceptable side effect
Here is a link to the above mention video I made a few years back. It may help answer some questions associated with the theories at play here.
