On this gun I didn’t have to make my own stuff to put in the shroud. Air-fective had a kit. It works.

How does that kit mount on? The stock shroud uses only one grub screw, which irritates me. Does the Air-fective kit mount better? And is it worth the high cost in your opinion?

It doesn’t mount on, it mounts in. You take all the metal baffles out of the shroud, take the stock muzzle brake off the barrel, then install their stuff. If your gun is tuned properly and not wasting air, it’s worth every penny. It’s as quiet as anyone should need. I added another grub screw or two in the rear shroud mount on mine. The TJ barrel was slightly smaller diameter than the stock barrel.

That's good to know. The LW barrel I'm installing is going to be slightly smaller too. I'd prefer to run a shroud since I'm adding some length to both the barrel and air tube with the XL plenum. Adding a moderate would just make this gun extremely long. Still a not as long as my Gauntlet though lol.

My larger plenum is internal and a one piece CNC machined piece. It took up some air space but didn’t make my gun any longer. If I were you I would make one investment at a time with the gun. After the barrel, poppet, spring, plenum and possibly porting job, make sure the gun is worthy of a good shroud kit. You might wind up dumping the gun in the classifieds and most guys will just hang a giant can on the end of it.

I like the look on my P35 with an after market silencer...besides, its easy to put out, so it can be transported in a backpack...in reality a snowshoes backpack.
First I dismounted the stock from the rifle, and the handle from the manual pump. These are in the "first level", then a corrugated carton nad over it the barrel and air tank+sight. all of this protected with 1" planks of closed cell foam. With a pair of 250, 5,5mm pellets can weighs a total of 8 kilos/17,6 pounds.
