Umarex Notos .22 Review! Regulated, Compact, Micro-Carbine PCP - AirgunWeb Old School Airgun Review

This video on “Umarex Notos .22 Review! Regulated, Compact, Micro-Carbine PCP - AirgunWeb Old School Airgun Review” is brought to you by AirgunWeb and its sponsors. Learn more at www.airgunweb.com
The UX Notos may be one of the best backyard PCP airguns you can get on a budget. Not only is it super quiet, but it’s consistent, powerful, and accurate. The lightweight design and excellent build quality make this a great gun for the holidays. And while it may ship as a micro carbine, for under $30 shooters can convert it to a pistol in less than a couple of minutes. Today we’ll look at the Notos as a carbine, but if you would like to see it reviewed as a pistol, just let us know!

[@donpeer4477]

Hey, Rick (@AirGunWeb) , if you have any channels for discussion with the industry, please send them these suggestions: Don't put the safety inside the trigger guard! You should NOT put your finger in there except to fire the gun. Don't put the pressure gauge at the muzzle! I don't want to look at the business end of a gun for any reason. Don't use fill probes; use foster fittings! The probe thing is old, non-standardized tech that's being slowly replaced. Lastly, I want the cocking HANDLE near my HAND and not my face!

[@stevengoodman3498]

Great video Rick. I love mine as well. Very accurate up to 30 yards!😊

[@mikecarter4412]

Ultimate truck gun imo . Mines always in my work van ready for the range or ground squirrels

[@chentequilichini7182]

my favorite airgun! bargain price!! have a few in different configurations , one with buck rail add ons ! I called the magpul edition , notos!. great review!! can't go wrong with the notos!!

[@grahamedwards9920]

From this side of the pond - great stuff👍🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@eddiecahall3824]

Nice review here Mr Rick👍💪💪💪😱😱😱💯

[@Jeeper1378]

Got the Buck Rail trigger housing. Enabled me to get the pull to around 1 lbs and without it bump firing (like stock)

[@MrJonathandcrow]

Great Job

[@amrak-8401]

NOTOS - Greek god of the south wind. HADES - Greek god of the underworld. What a great combination.🤓👍

[@gman9543]

Great review Rick! Hey just a tip, the next time you get your eyeglasses redone, opt for the anti-reflective coating. Then we'd be seeing your eyes on the video instead of the white reflections from the lenses.

[@AirGunWeb]

Hey there Gman. Thanks.. I've used that coating in the past and it just doesn't hold up here in the desert. Way too much dust and they get unable very quickly. Maybe they have a new process that's more durable. I'm due for a new pair anyway!! Cheers AGW

[@rdcd20]

Rick, are you open to testing out the JTS scopes? They have a 4-16x50 FFP that looks really promising for a budget friendly scope

[@mini14head]

Have a maple industries magazine on the way although my factory umarex mag works flawlessly. JSB 15.9 one ragged hole out to 30yds. Plus I get 38 useable chrono'd shots out of mine not 21.

[@robertgregory5246]

Did the Buck Rail stock and grips. Put on a regulated drop block, and a bigger bottle.

[@eddiecahall3824]

Ha i accidentally found the perfect pellet in this little lead slinger, better than any JSB Hades or any that people mentioned. Theyre only 11 bucks a tin and not crosman! But i aint tellin it. I need a ton for pesting!

[@glockbum]

Tell me, I will keep your secret!

[@donpeer4477]

Rick, regarding your Sound Pressure Level (SPL) meter testing: unless you have access to an anachoic chamber and lab quality metering, you're never going to get perfect readings. However, after saying that what you can get is relative readings. Relative to the equipment and environment it's in. The thing to strive for is consistency. Use the same meter at the same distance and in the same position for every shot. This will give us watching the information we need. Although I may get different results than you, or anyone else, the relative changes between one gun and the next (or moderator/non-moderator) is close enough to be relatable. Also, something that I do is test in "A" and "C". SPL meters set for the A-scale will filter sound to have a response similar to human hearing. Thus it will have more sensitivity (a "hump") at approximately 3,000 cycles and diminished respone at the high and low ends. When you set it to C-scale that removes the filtering and gives a flatter (broader) response curve. Why is this important? Because animals hear differently than humans and if you're planning on hunting with the gear you're testing, that could be an important factor.

[@AirGunWeb]

All of the above is why I'm not going to even try to report on DB data. If I can deliver "real" or even close to real numbers. What's the point? Cheers AGW

[@dschenk952]

My Notos is waiting for a scope, should be here tomorrow. What bottle and regulator were you using to top it off? I'd like to hear details on your chrony and rest, I might have missed them on a different video. Thanks.

[@Jeeper1378]

Suprised the Hades did not jam up with the stock mags… many do.

[@jasonhoover1521]

Hey Rick ive had a Notos for awhile. Unfortunately i haven't been able to get a chronograph yet. Im getting 4 full mags with mine at 30 yards before i see a poi change.

[@stmcutube]

Really enjoying your Reviews! Recently entering this addictive world in having a NOTOS! May I ask of your "Expert" opinion as to what good Scope Selections would be good for the NOTOS? THANKS!!!

[@eddiecahall3824]

Any compact scope or red dot. A DiscoveryOpt 13" or Leapers swat compact. CV life has good red dots

[@davidquintero5271]

I have a 3-9x40 Discovery scope, great choice.

[@smokeytheanimal3662]

What do you recommend for plastic on plastic stickation?

[@davidbraswell1481]

I have a FX Maverick .30 with all the goodies but to take it hunting would be absurd! I am loving this little package and its not going to break the bank!! will it shoot slugs decent?? just looking for a lightweight squirrel gun to hunt this winter and do you have an affiliate thingy with pyramid air?

[@eddiecahall3824]

Why would you buy a piece of crap Umarex when you already have a Cadillac Squirrel rifle! (FX)

[@chrism9071]

I need a scope for this but don’t know where to start

[@chrism9071]

What’s up with the magazines?? I had trouble right out of the box.

[@user-ks1gr6fj5t]

Try crosman domes

[@le3045acp]

i know it says umarex but its a snowpeak 750 and snowpeak guns are good guns so Rick can you please explain why none of the dealers in our lovely country stock or carry no snowpeak guns

[@le3045acp]

i would love an answer to this question from anyone who knows

[@rookriflerookrifle8286]

How many hand pumps to top it off at 18 shots?🙂🙂Great video as always👍👍

[@eddiecahall3824]

70 - 120 depends

[@rookriflerookrifle8286]

thank you@@eddiecahall3824

[@eddiecahall3824]

@@rookriflerookrifle8286 YW👍💯💪💪💪

[@atexasaggie1992]

new to PCPs and don't want to buy air tanks and pumps. is using a hand pump feasible?

[@AirGunWeb]

It’s a lot of work. This is a good candidate however as it’s a smaller cylinder. Using a pump is more about mass than strength. Not sure what you weigh, but 200 is a good minimum weight for hand pumping. Cheers AGW

[@sboy1955]

I’m in the same camp, from what I’m seeing the money spent on either a good hand pump or scuba tank/regulator would put a nice dent (price wise) in an electric pump.

[@airguntrucker]

I bought a Notos and a Skout Epoch Airgun last September but I haven't had time to shoot them yet.

[@nygemma]

can you use hand pump with it

[@davejensen5336]

I do

[@jasonhoover1521]

Rick. My Notos absolutely loves jsb ultra magnum pellets. However it doesn't do well with the hollow points.

[@budd1331]

I bought one recently. The rail for the stock is not centered. Kind of upset about that. I will have to call them about it.

[@eddiecahall3824]

All my airgun buddies and myself have had nothing but problems with Umarex junk like this one too. Not durable at all. Threw mine straight in the trash bin after 3 months! Never again!!! Umarex💩

[@mannipula]

Notos... that thing is a snowpeack pcp 750,

[@joedokes8641]

No thanks I like my Beeman's smooth underlever with magazines that work and the ability to employ my own moderator and not to mention a foster fill port . Also offered in 3 calibers all for around the same or lower price .

[@le3045acp]

but beeman has no regulator and is junk in comparison now this is not an insult it is just your opinion and this is my opinion of the beeman

[@joedokes8641]

It's good to have choices , regulators can be over rated . I also like less plastic .Just my opinion . @@le3045acp

[@UmarexAir]

Thanks for giving Rick and Umarex a view and engagement! 😀

[@donpeer4477]

I really hate misplacing those stupid probes! That will instantly turn your expensive gun into a useless paperweight if you can't get air into it.

[@joedokes8641]

You said it , all manufactures should use the foster fill connection . Probes are just stupid ( my opinion only ) .

[@grabir01]

for 25 yards, that is not good at all. That is not even good for 50.

[@zorin55]

I wonder why anyone would want an air rifle that shoots less than 900FPS but if it is what you want then go for it.

[@mini14head]

Killed literally thousands of starlings and hundreds of squirrels out of apple orchards with 4and5 pumps in blue streaks and R7's. All in the 525 fps neighborhood. My FX royal500, and Impact rarely come out of my gun safe.
