I found 2 crosman 1077 at Academy on there hot deal the other day for 49.00 so i bought 2 would have bought 3 but they were sold out. i ordered extra magazines for them and in the last few days have put about 1,000 pellets down range and who knows how many C02s i went through. i absolutely love this little gun ( thats how i found this site i typed in mods for 1077 and it came up so i registered)
i found that this little rifle is very accurate i put a 4X32 Gamo on both of them. i also found at 15 yards it will shoot all the way through a tomato sauce tin can using crosman 7.9 gr pellets. after seeing that im scratching my head trying to figure out why some say it is no good for squirrel. i understand the kinetic enrgy thing as i am a hunting guide here in texas.
Secondly im not real mechanical but i the mods on this gun got me interested. i found some Delrin barrel stabilizers??? i put a drop of peloil on each co2 cartridge i shoot. is there any other maintenace i need to be doing?

A 1077 (assuming the weather isn't cold, reducing Co2 pressure) is fine for squirrels- the problem is the 1077 is not very accurate.
