Color me jealous.
Geezus, you'd probably see that on the news, with helicopters circling, spotlights, and all of that...

They are loud enough that my neighbors know I'm shooting. The pneumatics (Sheridans and Benjamins) are the loudest. They have a very noticeable crack. The spring-piston RWS and Weihrauch are not as bad. The noise of the springers goes up with their power, with the RWS 48 and HW 80 being nearly as loud as the pneumatics. The RWS 34 is the quietest by far, but is also noticeably less powerful.

The HW 30 is a lower powered springer that is really pretty quiet. It even comes with a silencer in one version, which renders it, well - silent. Gamo has a number of silenced springers as well, for a lot less money, but like with all things in life, you pretty much get what you pay for.
