    Hey mate, it is definitely a nice size and weight with minimum length forward of the muzzle being the compact model. I am not 100 percent sold on it yet though to be honest in terms of noise reduction as my initial thoughts feel like its a bit harder on my ears then what I am used to with my DPTs. I am going to run it for a wee bit longer to be a better judge of what I think before fully deciding though. If I am not happy I will be switching back to a DPT Mk2 of the same size/weight.

    I am just looking for something to stop the blast / pressure wave. Normally not a problem with standing shots but I did notice a whack in the ear on Sunday with the barrel poked over a bush, that seemed to direct the blast back
