    Hi,

    I'm new to this site and i'm looking for some advice. I have a sako quad 17hmr and i'm looking for a decent sound moderator such as a pes 32mm muzzlecan. I'm in the Cork area and does anyone know where i can get one?

    Thanks :)

    Well buckshot....i'm new here aswell
    Why do want a pes mod?? There an expensive piece of kit.
    Sak do a mod for a rimfire for a fraction of the price,are as good and as practical as the pes ;)

    You could try Jeffersport in Bandon. Very helpful chap and he could order one in if he does not have them in stock.

    Thanks for the help. All i can seem to get from anyone is the A-TEC CMM-4 and the SAK moderator. From my experience you get what you pay for and i would rather spend that bit extra and get something i'm happy with rather than want to change it. I know a 17hmr round is hard to moderate and you can't get rid of the subsonic crack. I know you can get other moderators in the UK but just can't seem to get them here!

    If you can't deal with the subsonic, you'll have problems with the supersonic :D.

    main reason being tht a big pes 32mm wont work as the mods baffles are too big for the amount of powder burn as its designed for hornet/.223 and upwards,all you will be left with is an big expensive mod doing half the job,pes DO a rimfire version but it would be a uk source

    how do you get a permit for a moderator, do you just tick the silencer box in the accessories questions on the new application forms?
