Umarex Notos CRK Review

[Firewalker]

A customer is sending me one to install on thier gun and I have 2 of those Z blocks inroute for stock, Thanks for posting Mike!

Sanding the block to clock it makes worries me, there is no way to keep it completely flat when sanding, even on glass. The force it takes to move the block tilts it slightly, making it high in the middle. This allows for greater leverage and a better chance of shearing the air block off.

I would turn them in a lathe to clock them.

I ordered a Umarex Notos CRK from Pyramid Air last Thursday and it arrived this afternoon so I just had to tear it down, do a few mods and get some pellets through it before dinner.

The box was inside a considerably larger box with plenty of padding (kraft paper) to keep the gun safe. I opened the box and found pretty normal packaging with the black firm foam snuggling the gun.

We have the front end, the stock and two little baggies of screws, probe and magazine.

I just got my 3rd Notos from Natchez today, 9 months after I got my 1st one. It's still in the box, in another box, still sealed up.

I want to do something special with this gun, I would love to hear about your ideas for something special.

What you got?

Super-shorty pistol?

CF conversion Black Friday sale?

A raffle for mega-build?

I've been wanting to shorten mine to make it more comfortable to shoot as a pistol. Haven't found anybody that can shorten the air tube yet.

I am working on a series of 12" overall length Notos pistols right now. I gotta warn you, there isn't much air in there!

Dave I see you clocked a 15cc plenum on a z block was it off much?

[kbstingwing]

So who's making a Competition style side lever for the Notos? I would make one but I don't want to buy a bunch of tooling....

70°!!!!

I took off .25mm to get it to clock correctly. I chose to take the material off the plenum since it has a generous amount of material that would not affect the Z-block.

Nobody...

That would need an investment casting.

I have a full gun conversion to finish today, I love getting there and tearing a gun all the way down!

Cool I can handle that with my trusty HF 7x12. Thanks!

I've been stalking the Notos for a few weeks now.

I really like what I've read and I think it will make a great first PCP for me.

Can't go wrong!

I have too many PCPs and I like the Notos sooooo much that it’s probably my last PCP.
Tongue-&Cheek because that won’t happen at least for me.
‘X’ ll is in my sights/future.

I recently sold my Project 1322.  I learned a lot but I love just shooting the Notos better.  It is now my small game companion carbine for all pack-outs.  I might make a few more runs with Thick Girl (AEA 30 Cal) cause she puts the1 shot DRT on squirrels even out to 35+ yards.  So far I have limited the Notos to 35 yards and less.
