I am shooting a Baikal IZH-46M now in my backyard. I would have opportunity to upgrade soon.

Just wonder if any of you who have both LP 1 and LP 10 can give me comparison of those two pistols' noise level?

Both are louder than the 46.

LP 1 and LP 2 sound the same? or are they significantly different?

I borrowed a LP 1. It sounded like a high pitched pop. High pitched but not far traveling. My own 46M sounded like a bang. Somehow, my neighbor did not notice the high pitched pop as much as the lowered but more well traveled bang. Does it make sense or is it just my misperception?

No that sounds about right the LP 1 and 10 have more of a popping noise, like that of a champagne cork opening. Sounds a funny thing, can be effected by all sorts of things.
