A co-worker give this pistol and holster for free.
It was in his friend basement for about 20 to 25 years.
The co2 was still in it and rusted.
The right grip is missing. I will make one sometime in the future.
And somebody took most of the black paint off.
The co2 seal was cracked so I replaced it with a modifed Daisy co2 seal.
I oiled all the part from the outside of the pistol.
And I put a new co2 in it
and I got 35 good shots.
This pistol is shooting at about 350/375 fps I am not sure.

Excellant pistol, my 357c is extremely accurate. The old metal ones shoot great. Don't send it to crosman, you won't get it back . . . |

The 38T was only rated at "up to" 400fps- so 350/375 seems pretty good without modifying it. Good deal getting one for free!
Crosman keeps them if you send them in for repair? Is this serious? Why don't they just refuse to accept them if they have no intentions of actually repairing them? |

The plastic "replacement" pistol is what they'll send back. Unfortunately, the inaccurate plastic pistol isn't even worth the cost of the postage . . . |

yup, thats what happened to one of my friends. his grandfather gave him an old metal one he got quarter groups with. then, one day the barrel wouldn't rotate so he sent it to crosman and got back a platic one that was slower and went everywhere. |

Hey Rene
You want to get the metal polish out and buff it up like chrome, it will make an handsome piece to hang over the fireplace.

That is a great idea but I don't have a fireplace
First I have to re-crown the barrel and make a right grip for it. |

By the way this holster can be for a right or left handed shooter too.
There it is all apart.
There it is put back for right handed shooter.
Now this picture is UGLY with the 38T without the right grip.
