3 Legged Thing

Reservoir Mods – Precision Airgun Moderators

Regular price €8210 EUR

The Reservoir Mod is a compact, modular airgun moderator engineered to do one thing exceptionally well: reduce muzzle noise without compromising accuracy.

Designed and built by 3 Legged Thing, Reservoir Mods use a carefully tuned multi-chamber system to manage airflow, strip excess pressure, and quiet the shot at the source. The result is a cleaner report, tighter follow-through, and a more controlled shooting experience.

Available in two profile styles and two lengths, every Reservoir Mod delivers the same internal performance — the choice is simply how it looks and how much volume you want.

Description

Two Profiles. Same Performance.

Wavy Profile (RSV1)
A flowing, organic exterior with subtle contouring. RSV1 offers a softer visual language while retaining the same internal geometry and suppression performance as RSV2.

Chamfered Profile(RSV2)
A sharper, faceted design with clean chamfers and a more technical aesthetic. RSV2 is visually bold but mechanically identical inside.

Profile choice is purely about looks and feel — performance remains unchanged.


Compact design for balance and handling:

  • 5-chamber modular design
  • 14.5 cm (5.7") length
  • 36 mm (1.4") diameter
  • Internal volume: 59 ml
  • Ideal for compact setups

Why choose Reservoir Mods?

Because effective sound suppression isn’t about brute size — it’s about controlling air intelligently. Reservoir Mods are tuned to manage pressure smoothly, reducing sharp crack without over-damping the system or upsetting the rifle.

Quiet. Controlled. Deliberate.

THE SCIENCE OF SILENCE

CHAMBER SUPPRESSION ARCHITECTURE - ENGINEERING DIAGRAMS

Reservoir Mods 5-chamber diagram

STAGE 01 - ENTRY & FIRST EXPANSION

High-pressure gas enters immediately behind the projectile. The bore opens into a precision-calculated volume, triggered the first and largest pressure drop.

STAGE 02-04 SEQUENTIAL VORTEX

Air expands and vortexes within each successive chamber. Compressed wool gaskets strip residual energy between every stage - natural, dense, acoustically selected.

STAGE 05 - FINAL ATTENUATION

By the 5th chamber pressure is reduced to near-ambient.The exit report is a fraction of the original muzzle energy - clean and controlled.

STAGE 06 - UNDISTURBED FLIGHT - BY DESIGN

The projectile leaves the bore ahead of the propellant gas. By the time that gas is vortexing through the chambers, the pellet is already in free flight — completely clear of the turbulence. The Mod manages the report. It never touches the trajectory.

Chamber Absorption Technology

THE MATERIAL
THAT DOES THE
REAL WORK

Every chamber in the Reservoir Mod contains a precision-cut wool/polyester gasket disc. They are not packing material. They are not incidental. At 277 kg/m³ — nearly four times the density of high-performance acoustic panels — they are one of the most deliberately specified components in the system.

277 kg/m³ density
acoustic panel density
8 gaskets per XL unit
≥500Hz peak absorption band

The Density Advantage

Standard acoustic fibrous materials operate at densities between 8 and 80 kg/m³. The Reservoir Mods gasket discs are specified at 277 kg/m³ — a figure that places them in an entirely different performance regime.

At this density, the resistance to airflow through the gasket matrix is extremely high. Energy that cannot move freely is converted to heat. That conversion is the mechanism of attenuation.

The Blend

Wool and polyester contribute different physical properties to the same task. Wool fibre has a natural crimp that creates a highly tortuous internal structure. Polyester adds dimensional stability, ensuring each gasket holds its geometry under repeated cycles without compacting or shifting.

The result is a gasket that performs consistently across the service life of the product, not just when new.

Wool fibres perform most effectively at densities above 500 Hz — the frequency range where surface friction increases and more energy is dissipated as heat per unit of material.

The mechanism is viscous friction. As flow moves through the gasket matrix, vibrating molecules rub against the irregular interstices of the fibre network. That motion converts energy into thermal energy.

Mechanism: ISO 9053 / Delany–Bazley model for fibrous porous materials

Three mechanisms. One gasket.

01
Viscous Friction

Flow forced through the fibre matrix loses kinetic energy to viscous drag.

02
Tortuosity

Wool's natural crimp creates a structurally complex internal path that lengthens the effective route and multiplies opportunities for energy dissipation.

03
Thermal Conversion

The cumulative result of friction and tortuosity is heat: energy is progressively converted and dissipated into the gasket mass.

Performance is often discussed in terms of chamber count or overall volume. Those are meaningful numbers — but the material inside the chambers determines how much work each stage does.

A low-density gasket passes flow relatively freely. A high-density gasket forces that flow to surrender energy before it exits each chamber. At 277 kg/m³, this disc is specified to extract maximum attenuation at every stage.

Really pleased with the moderator - it works well and well engineered and looks the part. What more could you ask for!

1/2" UNF / Orange / Wavy

Excellent. Got the smaller one in orange to put on my BRK Ghost.i had to take one section off so it would fit in the hard case. Looking to get another one in black.the longer model..for my other rifle…great value for the price….

Exceptional accuracy especially when you move a added weight up and down inside different chambers and then fine tune with the number of chambers. Maybe you could add this to your product range or a dedicated mechanical weighted chamber.

A bit dubiuos about sound damping on this at first, but it is amazing! Would thoroughly rexommend.

Love this moderator, nice and slim (pistol freindy) and if you don't need super duper quiet, take some sections off, not that it heavy anyway but does lighten up the muzzle

So far so good, definitely quieter than stock mod.

Very happy with my purchase.

Great mod - great price, and ideally suited to a vintage Mk 2 s200. Really pleased. I did however perform a direct comparison with the XLK using only the mark 1 eardrum and did find the XLK slightly quieter but then again its almost double the price.

My Reservoir mods moderator in green is great. It works exceptionally well with my LG400 helping me achieve great groups at long range. I choose the chamfered design which looks fantastic.
Overall I am very happy with the form and funtion of this moderator

Looks good, not too badly priced , need to test it a bit more but I don't think it's any quieter than my standard moderators.

No change to accuracy, I bought the 5 section mod and is quieter, but could be better. Looks great and will probably try another couple of modules but overall very good.

impressive quality item built out of good quality materials,appearance is good,fit is good,but is not as quiet as i hoped for,perhaps i will add a chamber to it and then see.

Ian F.

I fitted this to my HW30, looks good, works well and with the wavy design it makes a great cocking aid
The design also allows you to add or remove chambers as necessary.
Very pleased,

This moderator is very high quality and does not affect the accuracy of my rifle. For the price I think its a bit of a bargain.
