I found the link to the GTA thread, but can’t seem to find the actual file. Do you remember which page it’s on? The link shot me to page 13 and I flipped around +-5 from there with no luck.

Talk me out of one please. Zero guns in the high end, fancy shmancy range interest me whatsoever which is nice. Having the Evol mini I see no need for another airgun as it fits my needs to a T. Except for one which is a low power, close quarters shooter for in our barn. I used to use my Taipan Veteran short with a speed dial which worked great. I then had issues with the mags advancing on low power. Normal power it did just fine but i wanted it for that low power purpose also so ended up selling it. The Evol would be doable i guess but hate to adjust anything as it shoots so well and having to take it apart to do it is a pain. Ive yet to fill that low power spot which has been, I believe, over a year now. Hard to remember, got 2 kids now my CRS is much worse than before them.

I have a HW30 .177 I use in the barn occasionally which works but a pain with follow up shots as many pigeons can be in there at once. And don't like to get it dirty as it's a very nice gun.

Took a break from here for awhile, keep saying 6-9 months cause not even sure exactly how long but don't care to really look it up. I do have an Airacuda standard .22 that's been sitting for months without a scope in my safe. Got it to review and stole my scope off the Evol. Once I was done playing with it I looked into getting a different scope but never did. Took a 4-5 month break shooting airguns also. Now last month been getting back into it as weather is finally getting nicer. That gun does have a nice power adjuster that would work great for it but is pretty long and much heavier than what the Notos is. Could make it work even though it's length and weight are bigger than wanted for its use, but then I could just get a red dot for it and be done.

Anyways was just curious what cool guns have come up just to look at with no intention on getting anything different. However some Umarex Notos came up? Looked just to see and man I think it would end up filling that spot greatly.

Everywhere it seems to be pre-order though and I don't really want to do that. Should I take it as a sign to stay away?

I got 3 options I guess which none are ideal to me:

1. Adjust Evol in between needs for it

2. Get red dot for Airacuda and live with the large size

3. Pre-order Notos

Just get a Notos. Believe me, you'll love it. Order a couple of CARM magazines. After you've shot it a few times you'll wonder why you didn't get it sooner. I'm a member of Sportsman's Guide.com. with an online search for coupons I got mine for $229! Either way, it's worth it.

If you get the Notos and decide to turn down the reg be sure to get a gauge block from Wes.

It will make tuning a bit easier when you have a gauge to go off of. But get one before they are all gone. He has a small machine shop make them for him and it can be months between each run. And yes it does extend the tube very close to the moderator.

I'm new to this game. Can you share more (e. g. Who is Wes?)?
