Is this good for Pest Control??

[@user-ts4gw2dx8f]

Great review, as always. It's just not my cup of tea. $12 for 40 shots? Plastic receiver, so probably can't work on it. And it didn't seem to be regulating that well. For $200 bucks, if you want to go pcp, I'd get a Crosman 3622 or Beeman qb variation and $40 hand pump. Unlimited air, no more out of pocket expenses, don't have to worry about supply chain issues on the new N2 cylinders, and could always add a regulator down the road for a price. But honestly, i own a few unregulated pcps with small air cylinders, and the accuracy doesn't really suffer.

[@AirgunChannel]

Oh yeah, or a Fortitude.

The Umarex Iconix is the PCP rifle from Umarex that is gonna be a game changer. It's gonna be 200 Euros/Pounds/Dollars or less.

[@j.verfaillie5742]

Without a doubt innovative. Diehard tuners will undoubtedly attach an air cylinder to it later, only to realize afterwards that with the total cost they could have bought an equivalent rifle that has already earned its stripes.

[@AirgunChannel]

so true!

[@jwhitaker81]

$22 plus shipping for two Nitro cartridges. A descent compressor could be paid for in short order. I don't know about you guys, but a shooting session is a tin of 200 or two. I can't see the value in it but I'm sure there is someone out there this is perfect for. I like the idea though. Good review as always Nate. The purchase of every gun I own was influenced by your content and they are all tack drivers.

[@bushwhookie1334]

It’s not really made for sitting and plinking lol it for small game hunting. I have had 3 compressors $300 each one last 3months second last 5months and last one lasted 5months. My hand pump from ebay lasted 4 1/2 years lol.. if they can make a refillable cylinders you can hand pump to 300psi or to the 3600psi it’s a game changer

This will cost the buyer way more cash in the end than a PCP with just air. Cylinders are gonna have to be cheap as dirt seriously to make this economical.

Yeah, they will make money on it for sure, Sinced only UX sells the Nitro! Stupid idea or brilliant? You decide.

Great observation. #Respect. The top of the cartridge had to be figured out and the filling process was not cheap to implement.

[@edmusick7794]

Umarex on FB just blocked me because I told them the truth about the cost of shooting the Komplete and the lack of support from the airgun community for this, IMO, mistake. It reminds me of the Daisy caseless ammo disaster in the 1970s. Umarex, you can block me, but that doesn't change the reality of the excessive cost of shooting your black plastic gun. A .22 LR rimfire would be better in every way

RIP NateDawg, we're really going to mis... Oh wait!, It's After May 14th! My bad! 🤣 I've never been a fan of aerosol-paint, C02 powered guns, etc. but over the past few years, I broke down.. I ended up with 2 cylinder powered 50 cal pistols and a twin-cylinder powered select-dire bb AR15.. With THAT said, Damnit! These are looking Nice Enough to consider!! BTW, years ago on a few of the forums, we talked about running different 'gasses' in the guns: pros / cons Obviously air, CO2, and Nitrogen are the go-go fill options.. buuut.. Some of us - like me - are welders, so, we have access to different compressed gasses.. I just transferred 2 tanks to my new place: 1 is 100% Argon and the other is a 75/25 which is a mix ratio of 75% Argon : 25% CO2. I've always been willing to bet that they'd work very well! [This is my way of saying but not saying that I'm probably going to try - and find out] 😁👍 In the meantime, I'll be trying to figure out something fun to say for my 'famous last words'. lol

[@AirgunChannel]

I got some Argon for my Airgun! I like the idea! -Nate

[@DirtyDovi]

@@AirgunChannel Right on! If anything, using this stuff 'should' cut down on the amount of condensation/liquids that can enter during regular filling [just due to compressor air temps] What we Should do is get some Helium, I heard that'll make the guns a lot lighter! 🤣👍

[@heathhalfhill6867]

Please just be careful bro. Nothing that is combustible or in other words…DIESEL 💥💥💥

[@SquirrelhuntinginAmerica]

Yea it'd cost you over $111 to shoot through 500 pellet tin of 22 cal , 11 canisters 45 shots each. By the time you shoot 1500 pellets or 3 tins you could have afforded a cheap Chinese air compressor for right at 200 to 300.

​@@user-ts4gw2dx8f You don't need to be sarcastic, professor. I get all that but just think the bolt is more ergonomic. Less sideways. - The bolt action was designed to be applied while shouldered to make it smooth, straight and easy while staying on target.

@@Thegoofyairgunner you're 100% on. We didn't make this for those of you who already have the set up. We get that.

@@UmarexAir that’s awesome!!! Thank you for the sub and reply. I definitely see it being a gateway platform and I understand what you mean about that.

@@AirgunChannel Indeed! I know a lot of clinicians who drive Tesla's and would LOVE this design. The $$/shot is worth it to them over the high initial investment and the time of a pump or compressor and the labor associated with the first and the noise of the second. They'll buy a case of these cartridges and enjoy every minute they get to spend plinking. Honestly, it makes sense and is a great innovation over the CO2 people have been spending $$ on for decades...

Are those the same threads as the CO2

Not sure.

There will be some pressure flex from hot to cold but nitrogen being a dry, stable gas doesn’t lock up a valve like CO2 would. The pressure variant shouldn’t be as extreme.

[@UmarexAir]

The approximate max a .177 cal CO2 rifle will shoot with a 7 grain pellet is around 650 fps in ideal temperatures and that's just the first 3 shots then it's less. .22 even less which is why we don't do .22s in CO2.

Thanks for asking why. There are people who don't or can't spend $200+ on a PCP rifle in addition to $ on a scope, and then $250+ on a compressor that's a pain to keep cool without them using credit (debt). The Komplete NCR provides a convenient way for people to experience PCP given the average person doesn't sit and shoot a full tin of pellets each weekend. Lots of break barrel owners who don't want to break a barrel but do want multi-shot capability in a quiet platform. Some people live in a suburb and can employ such a device for the ocassional garden pest but have zero interest in buying a carbon fiber tank, HPA compressor, and don't want the hassle of a hand pump. Just a few reasons. Not everyone's tin of pellets.

More expensive per shot than a powder burner, nitro is not cheap or readily available, so there's the hassle of ordering on line and shipping costs, and always having some on hand, how much can you invest to have a stock of nitro bottles on hand or no shooting for 3 or 4 days while you wait for the nitro to arrive? I don't see where this fits into the scheme of things, not sure you want a PCP? Then buy a cheap C02, works and feels the same, just doesn't have the power. Like the pneumatic experience? than buy the PCP with the money you saved by not investing in Nitro. Me? I like springers, no gas, no pumps, just pellets to make it go but if I did go the PCP route, even as a starter, I'd give the nitro a miss.

Respect your opinion but disagree on whether or not it is a "real" PCP or not. Has a regulator at 1800 psi.
