It was a RUGER .22 semi-auto (model unknown, didn't ask) with a suppressor/silencer on it! A local range is getting into Class II/III gun rental and sales and they have this gun set up with a red dot scope. They let me take it for a test run on their indoor range with no ear protection to see how effective the silencer was and I was VERY impressed!
The report was just a light hiss sound (pffft) with a clack of the bolt. The next thing you heard was the bullett hitting the cardboard target backer, then the backstop with a little clang! The ammo was Remington SubSonic .22LR. The one I shot also has the "Assassin Latch" that locks the bolt closed to eliminate the clacking of the bolt! Man, I gotta have one of these!!! The price tag is $1000 + $200 NFA tax. What a freakin' cat gun, ummm, I mean plinker this would be!!
Also shot their RUGER 77/44 bolt action .44 magnum rifle with a suppressor/silencer w/o ear protection. The hiss was a little louder and the clang against the backstop was most definitely more pronounced but you could shoot it all day at the INDOOR range with no discomfort at all! Extremely neat piece but still not as tempting as the .22!!
If you live ANYWHERE NEAR Atlanta, Georgia get yourself out to Wolf Creek indoor range in Douglasville and shoot these awesome toys! Their web site is located at http://www.wolfcreek-gun.com/ It's under reconstruction but it has the number to call for directions, if needed.
They are awaiting one more form from Treasury and they will have Class III full auto rentals. To name a few of their full autos, try on for size an MP5, AR-15 type in 9mm, and a Thompson .45ACP. There were more that they named but these three examples was all I needed to hear!
