    Umarex Umarex Notos Moderator Removal

    I've decided to leave the suppressor on and dial back the hammer spring. And maybe go with a heavier pellet. It should temper the sharp higher pitch. Since I bought a .30 cal Maverick I haven't felt the need to make the Notos reach out as far. The Notos is my 40 yard gun and the Maverick is...

    Umarex Notos scopes used?

    You gotta remember we’re only talking Max 50 yards with the Notos. So I think if you’re gonna shoot further than that then yeah, you definitely need a better scope.

    FX Anyone ever get the urge to eviscerate a fly but by the air from your PCP only…? Just me?

    No, but I have blown the string around that pulls the blind up and down as I shoot out the bedroom window at targets set up in the back yard! LOL. My wife loves it.

    Umarex Umarex Notos Moderator Removal

    Does anybody know if there is a youtube video of somebody removing it just using tools the average guy would have? Hacksaws, wrenches, a drill motor, maybe a vice of some sort?

    I did notice a slight improvement of 3 to 4 shots. And I have a chronographed 10 FPS improvement. I think the plenum is used mostly to improve shot variance. At least that is what FX claims.

    Umarex Notos scopes used?

    Tried others but always go back to the 3x9x12 BugBuster. It is a pretty decent scope with all the accessories. You will need to buy a set of picatinny medium height scope rings. The set it comes with will not work. I have seen them on Amazon for 15 bucks give or take. A word of caution...

    Lubing Pellets

    I use dish soap to cut through the grease. With a fan pointed at them I lay them out to dry . And finally a light coat of silicone spray. As a bonus the silicone spray gives me a chronographed 10-fps increase.

    Yes, the spinners although fun, unfortunately can be a bit noisy.

    Other Whats the next step over the Notos?

    I have asked myself that question whether it be my motorcycles, my guitars or the Notos. The only answer I can come up with is that you make it your own. Does anybody agree?

    Norica viriatus D Gas procedure

    First remove the magazine and verify there are no pellets in the barrel. Cock the gun and pull the trigger until the meter reads zero. Simple as that. Obviously point the gun in a safe direction. You may want to check YouTube for directions. Have a good weekend.

    Norica viriatus D Gas procedure

    The manual says to continually pull the trigger to de-gas it. I recently used that method, and it works.

    Umarex Notos air fill problem

    Thank you for all your help. So here's what I did: After cocking the gun and hooking up the compressor, I crossed my fingers... the gauge did not move. But I noticed air was coming from the barrel at the loading end. I figured what the hell, so I put my finger over it just for a second or two...

    Umarex Notos air fill problem

    So I recently purchased the Notos rifle. Everything was working fine until I decided to adjust the trigger and also adjusted the hammer spring. According to the manual, you take all the pressure out of the cylinder, they call it degassing. Before you change any settings on the trigger or the...
