Default silencing

Got my parker buckbuster today. Shoots great. It's way quieter than my titan. The only noise is the retension spring. I guess thats what its called. The thing that holds the arrow in place. Anyway, on my titan I had a limbsaver that went on there that came with a crossbow silencing kit. This time I don't need all the other stuff. Just the little rubber thing for the retension spring. Is there any place online that sells it?

Not sure if Ten Point sells that stuff separately or not. Did you try cabelas.com?

yeah they didn't have any. The dicks sporting goods down the street has mini limbsavers. I think that might do the trick if I can't find anything else. It looks just like a regular one but its real real tiny.
