This is impressive.  How quiet is the gun, do you have any decibel numbers?  I'm looking for a powerful and quiet springer (at least as quiet as the Beeman R-7).
Beeman R-9 DG 0.22
Beeman R-9 DG 0.20
Beeman R-9 DG 0.177
HW 95 in 0.20
HW 50 in 0.177
RWS 48 in 0.22

This gun shoots around 751fps ave w/14.3gr cphp's it is very quiet don't have any db levels but I have compared it to a Bsa lightning in .22cal and it is quieter than that gun but not quite as quiet as my stock M-Rod but not far off that what you hear is more of the piston slam than muzzle report, the muzzle report is almost not there with this gun and the more I shoot it the quieter it gets also keep in mind this gun isan't broken in yet! and let me add I don't shoot off a bench either these shots are taken standing up rested off a ladder rung!

I still have my almost like new RWS 94 which was made by Cometa for RWS andis the exact same power plant that Cometa uses. All these years and Cometa has not change a thing in their power plants. I hope to start restoring my RWS 94 soon, but would still like to own one of their compacts...:)
