Scope and Hand Pump for Umarex Notos

S
I bought a Mantis (Air Venturi, I think..) 3x9 scope and it seems to be good enough for my short range shooting. The parallax is adjustable down to 5 yds, which is nice. I have little experience with any scopes over $100, so that's all I know right now. Unfortunately, the farthest I can shoot in my yard is 25 yards, so I really don't have much use for anything too fancy.

I bought a new but resold pump on ebay. Sometimes you can find name brand pumps for about $50-75, but in the end, most are all made in China anyway.

I am thinking about getting an Avenger, Is the action block on the Avenger still a polymer?

JimD said:
I have an original Avenger in 25 caliber. It leaked initially but has been trouble free subsequently. I am not impressed in the materials used in a couple areas but it works fine and is accurate. I also have three bullpups built by Snowpeak and I think they are significantly better made. My bullpups are P35s which is probably more than the OP wants to spend but SPA makes a lot of fairly inexpensive airguns including some priced very similarly to the original Avenger. The M16A may be in that price category, for instance. Airgun Archery Fun has some as does Krale. Stoeger airguns are built by SPA. Airgun Depot has a XM1 for $229 and a "Ranger" for $349. The XM1 might be a little short on power but I think the "Ranger" would be roughly comparable to an Avenger. But I did not look at the specs very hard, you should before buying one. Also look for on line reviews. I do not believe Avengers are bad guns but I think SPA makes a little bit better gun for the same kind of money.

I had never even heard of Snowpeak until about four or five days ago, but they look really nice I seen a Remington bull pup thank you. It was by Snow Peak too. That looked really nice thank you guys appreciate it. I will look into them some more.

March Pain

Yes, definitely frustrated with the shift. It seems to continually wander over time, which is why I think something is going on with the erector tube/spring. If it was a Sightron, I probably would have the problem solved by now (or a replacement scope). Although it ranges really well, I am switching to the S6, since that scope seems more reliable (well after 4 FT days so far).

Collectible airguns

Whiscombe comes to mind

I don’t know. There’s something about the word “collectible” that I associate with items that are unusual, hard to find and were once affordable. Whiscombes are more like heirlooms or masterpieces while a left handed Sheridan would be a collectible.

Any QD option that hold zero?

Nealgl1985
If you are not running a large/heavy scope you most likely won't feel the extra weight from using a proper high quality mount. American defense manufacturing, zro delta, larue, spuhr, and scalarworks are a few of the higher end mount. Scalarworks is probably the lightest.

You can run a burris as well just never tried that brand qd. I've ran all the brands above and the only thing I didn't consider was when moving from gun to gun I ran into some rails not being the exact same size so I'd have to adjust the tension on to get it onto the other rail.

If you are running a quality set of rings you should get close if you torque to previous specs when remounting.

Also mil spec won't go on weaver but weaver will go on mil spec rails. So if you bought an expensive mount and tried attaching to the weaver the mounting lug might not fit into the slot.

Just a few things to consider.

Air Venturi  Seneca double shot

R
wimpanzee said:
there are some youtube videos on the seneca guns, most of the orings are standard and can be found at hardware stores and stuff. Usually a really long flat head is required to get the stock off (i use a flat metal rod from a clamp)
if you need a valve seat or something, you might try bryan at veradium air https://www.veradiumair.com/

Thanks for your help . I have seen Some video’s. I dont think its complicated. Replacement parts can be the dealbreaker.

Hatsan  New Jet 1 fill problem!

O
I also have a Jet, in my case the Jet2. I did not have a problem with their fill adapter although I don’t really like it. A standard foster will not fit on my gun. I think their manufacturing tolerances are bad. The hatsan Velox I bought also had a fill adapter that didn’t work on the gun it was sent with, neither did a standard foster work, luckily for me I had another hatsan nipple that I replaced it with and that fit my foster compressor fitting. The Velox has proven to be an otherwise great gun for the money.

N/A  BSF S60

Received the S60 today! Felt just as happy receiving this $150 rifle as I did my $2000 rifle. First thing I noticed was there’s more patina on it than I thought. Not a big deal as I’m going to restore it. What really shocked me was when I shot it… it shot strong and accurate! Loaded up a 14.3 gr cphp and it was nearly dead on. Not too shabby for an old gal. Definitely restoration worthy.

FX  FX Airgun or NOT

athlon_oved
I would recommend the fx impact. either the M3 or the M4. they are lights out accurate at 100 yards out of the box. Plus they are super easy to tune for different types of pellets and weights. it 100% cannot be beat. They are simple to use and at least for me I haven't had any issues out of mine, but I don't **** around and mess up my guns either by tinkering around and doing the wrong things like a lot of people do that claim to have so many issues with FX..
