Picture an airgun that shoots real slugs. Compressed air propels the bullet forward. The idea is to have a hearing safe gun that isn't a .22. What does /k/ think?

OP here, i suppose a railgun would work as well, but i imagine that would be more costly

The air rifle would shoot actual rounds, maybe 9mm JHP

>inb4 lol 9mm

My thought is, what would the mechanism look like for chambering the next round?

Care to elaborate?

They make large bore air rifles already. People hunt large game with them.

Are those air rifles hearing safe?

Absolutely fucking retarded.
PCP air rifles of a large caliber are unwieldy in tight woods let alone the confines of a house.

Get a $200 shotgun and a $25 flashlight.

Yes.
Theyre quieter than a .22lr.
If the main consideration for you HD gun is hearing safety then get a $60 pair of electric muffs and keep them next to your proven HD gun.

I can't overstate the disandavtages of using an airgun for home defense, the variables in air pressure/feeding reliability/follow up shots make airguns inherently flawed for HD.

OP, I've been thinking of the same thing too.

But I came to this conclusion about using slugs in an airgun. You can use this to kill someone with real bullets.

It's called a gun.

>>30106197
Here you go. You can put this on the buttstock of your weapon or just beside it if you wish.

Then again, you most likely won't need it. Considering the high pitched screams you emit as your boyfriend rails you from the back are much louder than 140db.

My concern with earpro for HD is not being able to hear movement

Multiple people here have suggested electronic muffs. These things work and really do amplify ambient noise while blocking out shots.

There really is no better option, asides from man up take the tinnitus and make your first shot count.

they make real air guns that can kill deer you dumbass.

theres one on Sportsmansguide.com right now, it fires a .35 caliber slug
