WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
I tested the pistol on a warm July morning with a temperature of 15 degrees and again this (August) morning in similar conditions other than it was a little darker. Firstly, without the silencer and using Gamo ball, I recorded an average velocity of 282 FPS using single action. Switching to double action increased this to an average of 314 FPS. Screwing on the silencer produced a similar average of 308 FPS. The muzzle report was noticeably muffled though and it seemed the clang of the pellet against steel targets was louder due to the reduced muzzle noise. The SAI silencer certainly works as advertised Read on:

After all the trouble I put you into, even making changes to the description of the Baikal Gen-5 I believe, it is a most satisfying ending. Thank you very much for your gift, along with the black grips included. It's a really beautiful piece. It goes without saying that you have my full support for using this statement in the relevant section of your site. Hope you will find a Tyrex soon.. Best regards Vassili (E-mail from GREECE / May'20) Yesterday I received my order with courier. I feel obliged to thank you for all. It is an excellent gun from every point. Your tests proved to be more than accurate. Excellent service from your side. Please wait for my further purchases in the very near future. Thanking you again, With Best Regards, Efstathios Maniadis.

Hey I have to tell you this, that Mak you sold me is fantastic. I put a small washer over the breach so that there is no gap at all between the magazine and the breach, therefore no gas leakage, and so a bit more power is gained. It was already really powerfull though. Around 400 fps.
With the washer it went upto 450 fps. Then I put the silencer adaptor on and that added 20 fps. I think it will be over 500 fps with the silencer fitted. And if it is quiet too, it's got to be the best ever Co2 pistol. Nearly 4 ft lbs fabulous. (Text from Tom / 08.04.14)
Hi It was a pleasure talking to you the other day and I look forward to receiving the magazine & grips. When I spoke to you the package had only just arrived so I really hadn't had much of a chance of looking at the Makarov. I didn't realise just how nice it is, the nickel finish is really good. Well worth the money, thank you. In fact it is so good that I really don't want to use it but keep it mint. This means that I'm going to have to look for another,
probably blued to make the set. Kind Regards Mike (Email from Portugal / 19.04.16)
