Umarex Maple Products cocking lever for Notos installed

So far, I like it. Definitely improves the cocking action. I never liked how the stock lever sits totally flat, which makes you have to put your finger in a tight spot under the scope to move it away from the body of the gun, and then a second motion to cock it. Now it's a much more natural motion. I hope the main body of the lever, which is plastic, holds up. I don't shoot mega amounts, but we'll see. Installation was pretty straightforward, even for a rookie like me. I did use a press to remove one of the pins, mostly because a couple of taps with the hammer and punch didn't do it and I felt safer using the press. You have to remove the handle and the short rear Picatinny rail to get to everything.

A couple of photos even though you probably know what it looks like.

They have a website to visit? I want one too, I HATE the Notos standard cocking lever. That is what stops me from shooting it very often, that and the small round count in the mags.
 

Just my too Canadians, eh

Also look on their website for their higher capacity mags. I haven't used them, but I think most people like them.

That new cocking handle made a big difference on my brother's notos. It requires a partial disassembly of the gun.In order to change the lever. There is a very good video on youtube describing the process which I needed to follow. I recommend it because the improvement was worth the time and expense.
