I have the Akela 177 too, also from Airgun Revisions. I had a leak through the Foster fill probe after about a month after buying it. You have no warranty with the AR guns. AR did send me a replacement fill probe, part of a kit which contained some other useful parts. Luckily I can fix my...

From Hatsan. Ask for a poppet replacement. It should be free.

With the Ozark the main issues I had were: trigger Not adjustable. Have to replace 2 triggre springs to make it lighter noise The shroud is fake since no air gets in there. I had to add my own shroud. It does come with a 1/2-20 adapter and 1/2-20 threaded barrel. hammer spring assembly The...

So glad I did not buy an Escalade. The Niksan Ozark I bought (on your recommendation and some of the very few likely paid reviews) is acceptable after adding my regulator, total price around $400. I would not buy again if I knew what I know now. So, Niksan importers/distributors (DonnyFL, The...

Did you mean that your Notos valve stem get damaged by too much pressure?

A plenum may indeed be great but it costs $50+ for a $220 airgun.

I am not about power with the Notos. It's supposed to be a small lightweight airgun. 800FPS with CPHP is plenty for hitting targets at 50-60 yards.

I have both the Notos and PP750. I like both and the action is almost identical. I wish Notos came in .177 too.

The shroud and 9 baffles inside work well for the size. After the shroud holes are covered it gets even more quiet. With an additional moderator it's really quiet.

I have bought plenty of thread adapters from Aliexpress. I have 10-20 moderator adapters 1/2-20 to 1/2-28 and 1/2-28 to 1/2-20. I wish I could find a reasonably priced adapter for the Umarex Zelos air bottle. I will not pay $50 for the ebay one.

I covered those holes with duct tape for now. I will probably wrap the entire shroud with something (carbon fiber wrap, etc) soon. I was also thinking of 3D printing a cylinder (from TPU) to cover the outside of the entire shroud.. I also added a moderator and now it's really quiet. A shroud is...

The drop block is a fake Huben Dream valve, which I bought for under $50 during a sale. You can find many of them on Aliexpress is you search for "z valve": https://www.aliexpress.us/w/wholesale-z-valve.html

I only increased the pressure with air inside. I know that decreasing the pressure may damage it, if it is under pressure.

I bought 2 fake Leupold scopes 6-24x50 too. For about $40 each I have no complaints.

Adding that drop block and fixing all the leaks afterwards took me almost 8 hours. But I am stubborn enough to not give up :)
