Here is my 2240. I have had it so long and carved and weighted it so exactly for just myself it qualifies as an official extension of my hand. I would still be using iron sights if my eyes were better. As it is, the aimpoint is almost not enough.
The next one is my 2300. It old school before the kt designation and when crosman had a LOT more options in the custom shop. I've had since 2009 for my birthday.
Then next is my 2400 same deal here. Everything is from the custom shop. I am seriously thinking about taking it down to a 18 inch barrel instead of a 24. I read on another forum that 18 is close to optimal for CO2. I may bulk it one day, but not yet.
I hope you like them! I am still debating a TKO for my 2300. |

| Yep. It's been forever since I did that. I used a dremel tool to shape everything. Those things are handy! lol |

| It's actually poplar. Our local home improvement store has it in 1/2x4x4ft lenghts for like 6 bucks. It's really good for carving because it's softer than oak, but a lot harder than pine. Works out really well. |

And it takes stain nicely. I've used box store popular planks to make awards plaques. |
