today I and an other member thought it'll be good to DB test our markers and there barrels .

We have between us Gtek,etek3,etha.
We swapped and changed the barrels to see if that made any difference but it didn't .
So our findings are -
Gtek - 90 DB
Etek3-90 DB
Etha- 92 DB
We found this very surprising to be honest as they do sound different when you shoot them .
The gtek has a soft muffled sound
And the etek3 has a sharp sound ,the etha is between the two.
The DB tester was in the same place as was the shooting position to keep the test for each as close to identical as we could (3foot to the right and 3 foot down .

Have any of you lot done any DB tests on your markers ?
