Top Backyard Airguns

Airguns allow us to get in more trigger time.  Usually, this will be in the comfort of our own backyard.  The biggest concern most backyard shooters need to consider is the loudness of their airgun.  Backyard-friendly airguns need to be quiet, and fortunately, most of today’s airguns focus on keeping things quiet.  Let’s look at the top “quiet” backyard-friendly airguns for 2022.  We will list these by price, starting with the most affordable and topping out with some of the more expensive options.

Gamo makes some great backyard-friendly airguns.  It’s good to know that not all the quiet airguns need to be PCP.  The Gamo Fusion 10x Gen 3i is not only quiet but uses Gamo’s SWARM magazine system. The new Gen 3i SWARM utilizes inertia from the recoil to advance the magazine.  Having a 10-shot breakbarrel that’s quiet, accurate, and fun to shoot is perfect for any backyard range.

Most importantly, the shrouded barrel keeps things nice and quiet.

The quiet standard was set many years ago by the Benjamin Marauder.  While this airgun has been around for many years, it’s still one of the quietest airguns you can buy.  The traditional styling certainly resonates with older shooters.  It’s an accurate and fun airgun that’s ideal for bench shooting or taking out pests in the garden.

Heirloom airguns are airguns that easily last from generation to generation and are passed down accordingly.  The Air Arms TX200 is one such airgun. Available in multiple configurations, this underlever spring airgun is built to last.  It’s quiet, accurate, and looks amazing.
