Umarex Notos muzzle brake replacement?

[Matchstickshooter]

I have received a Notos CRK in a trade and wonder how hard is it to remove the factory muzzle brake as this one is toast from last owner.
Looking for repairing cheaply, big money an issue.
thanks

The Notos comes with a moderator, not a muzzle brake. The moderator is permanently affixed with snap rings with are molded inside of the moderator. In order to remove the stock moderator, you will need to carefully cut it off with a hacksaw. Careful not to hack into the barrel though!

There are some aftermarket moderators which will slip over the OEM moderator. This will likely be your easiest and least expensive option.

Good luck!

I will bear this in mind,
thanks!

C88 makes these adapters so you can mount a can. Just make sure to check the "shroud" to see whether you have the untreated or the threaded version.

Is it just the inside baffle core that is bad? If so,people are printing them and can just replace that part. Just two pins are holding it in.

Jeez, if the previous owner managed to screw up just the moderator what might he/she have done to the rest of the gun? It's unreal how many people dealing with guns have just enough knowledge to be DANGEROUS! Hope you can get this resolved. Were you aware of the condition before the trade?

Someone had trouble with pellets clipping the end plug and baffles, too, (what I'm told) and they cut off the end plug and made baffles and end plug from PVC plumbing plugs. Supposedly even quieter, but I'm not keen with the look of it.
Haven't shot it yet as I have barrel O rings coming. they were gouged pretty good.
(I had assumed/trusted everything was okay). Lesson Learned

Word of advice, DON'T let that person do any brain surgery on you!
