Hi peeps anyone used one of these? Thinking about getting one for my etek 3 just wondered if it is a worthwhile upgrade? Does it do what it's supposed to?

Cheers

Ive got one id say slightly quieter than standard bolt less air blowing past the bolt
Hope this helps

I think the idea behind them is that they channel air much like an exhaust system does in a car. I believe it results in a smoother/quieter shot. Have a gander on YouTube, I'm sure I have seen videos about it on there.

I had to turn down the velocity after installing a Hush bolt, seems that the theory of sealing the breach is sound and wastes less gas by channeling this through the bolt.
Can't really comment on sound difference as I'm too busy shooting to be worried about that :D

The lastest style of bolt is made in a newer delrin and should be black inn colour, also it has 'pooty' style cuts to the body to help reduce bolt rub, there's also a new soft face bolt called the Kush bolt as well
