    are there any compatible barrels for the umarex notos?

    Yes C88 machining sells this kit. You can order the FX liner from Utah Airguns. You can also find @ Firewalker ( a member here) that can install this kits for you if that's what you want. An alternative is using Turkish barrel available from Canada shooting Supply, this requires some fitting and...

    Other Reximex RPA Pistol Review (This PCP Pistol Shoots like a $1500 Gun!) Video Review

    Mine is holding air good since last night. Did some trigger work today to lighten it, lighter trigger shoe return spring and lighter secondary sear spring also. Now down to 1# 3oz. Strill have lots of creep, only way to minimize this is to grind secondary sear so it drops quick. Not ready for...

    Well 10 days later and PA did me right. Got my replacement grip, I opted for the plastic stock and it fits a lot better.

    Umarex NOTOS Owners and modifications:

    Don't forget to open all passageway, mine all 4.5 mm except the air block I opened to 6.5 mm. This was done because I wanted to try it as a 30 cal carbine, otherwise 4.5 mm will be good.

    Umarex NOTOS Owners and modifications:

    I don't see a kit for it, only the 22 cal. I've made a few 25 cals using a Reximex Tormenta barrel (375 mm long). Other Turkey made barrels also work, like Kral available from Canada shooting supply. The 12 mm step needs lengthening a few mm, the transfer port can be elongated to match the...

    Umarex NOTOS Owners and modifications:

    I finally got caught up with outside projects and review, now time to finish up the Notos Rocket 2 quick detach/folding stock adapter before the 2nd part of California dove season starts. I'll mount a low power parallax adjustable scope on her for the hunt.

    What pistol did you shoot today

    Yes it is in series giving me a net volume of 175 cc. I wanted the gauge close to me and opposite it is the foster fill port. I EDM the manifold to connect the 2 tanks, my take on the Hatsan Jet2. I call this the Notos Rocket2, lol. Below pic, folding stock adapter with quick picatinny vertical...

    I've had the Manul now for a few months, build is top notch. I had to modify one of my Diana moderator by boring it out and tapping M14 thread to it. Works very well. My only grips are cocking lever will hit the scope and I wish it had removable magazine.

    Well, after several delays PA being on back order I finally got it. It was scheduled for Thursday, but for some reason it required my signature and UPS came too early than normal. I tried to pick it up at their DC, but it was shipped to a UPS store, WT#! Picked up today and I'm not happy with...

    What pistol did you shoot today

    Nice calm day today, just waiting for temp to raise a little before opening window to shot. My pp750 has a Notos stock now and both guns have after market barrels. The pp700 I bore straight through and use set screws front and back to hold the barrel. Very easy no tear down breech O-ring...

    What pistol did you shoot today

    Shooting one of my old favs, I opened the transfer port to 1mm and decreased hammer spring to get very consistent 635 fps with RWS Super Mag 9.5's.

    Umarex Is Your Notos Upgraded or Out the Box?

    I have way too many Notos rifles and still it continues to grow, lol. I do keep one completely stock for base line comparison. I do provide feedbacks to companies and encourage them to incorporate some of this mods for safety, ergonomics and performance. I have mutual NDA's with 4 different...

    Snowpeak PP700 Why ?

    For one of my pp750, I used an Avenger X 5.5 barrel I bought from PA. Yes it's a lot of work to cut to 10.75", tread and hone a lead for the pellet but it turned out very well for me. I lapped the groove with XXX fine diamond lapping compound. I also relocated the 2nd stage screw to reduce full...

    Snowpeak PP700 Why ?

    Like I said, the pp700 5.5 barrel is very thin on the threaded ends. On the back end I use 2 M4 set screw and I make an over size M10 nut to tension the barrel and also have a 1/2 unf male thread for moderator. Changing breech O-ring is now very easy, just loosen the set screw to slide the...

    Snowpeak PP700 Why ?

    I have a few Lothar barrel left from 10 pcs. I bought from Tim (Mac1Airguns) for converting the crosman mk1 to an LD conf. The pp700 5.5cal is prone to stretching on the treaded end and lose accuracy.

    Snowpeak PP700 Why ?

    I have 2 pp700 pistol, I was going to cut one down to make a compact one. I decided to make a Notos pistol instead. Both the pp700 have Lothar barrels and I'm very happy with it. Also I made an easy load guides for it as my arthritis is getting worse.
