I decided to give the old under powered gas gun a shot at a new lease on life.A few tips via Crosman forum on what I needed to do to this old timer to get it off its a$$ and shoot with some authority I proceeded to tear it apart and do the necessary modifications to take it above 600 FPS in .22 cal.These incluced valve porting, hammer spring, and transfer port. I already had the 14" barrel and sholder stock but kept it as a pistol for most of its life.When I dug out the old stock and carbine barrel it was in sad shape,painted flat black with nicks and scratches in a few places.A total refinish was in order .All seals and o-rings have been replaced whether it needed them or not.And a new Muzzle break was spun on a lathe /no LDC yet I am still messing with that in spare time.I also added a Quest butt pad,cheap bipod and the original 4X15 Crosman scope.I have yet to shoot it as the temps outside will kill a CO2 gun. But it is finished and ready to Rock&Roll. I am thinking of ordering a 2260 24" barrel for it I think there only about $20 dollars.But for now I'll shoot it the way it is.If someone has that part # for the 2260 barrel on hand I could use it. Good Shooting BBGun Bob SE MI. _________________ Air Guns Create Many Questions ! !

Nice job.

Al yea about the laser,I'll give it a try and see what happens.On the CO2 it mght stay in place because there is no recoil.What the hay they were on sale at WallyWorld for $19.99 I couldn't pass one up for that money.Someone told me if you superglue the adjustment screws after sighting it in it will stay put. At any rate I'll try it.I also have the pressure switch I may add if things work out with it. Have a Nice weekend!! BBGun Bob _________________ Air Guns Create Many Questions ! !

Part # on the 1377 steel breech kit is: 1377SBPK and should be around $30, the 1760 barrel is 1760-001 and would be a bit under $20 as well, the 1760 bolt is # 1760-003 and should be around $5. Good luck and keep us up to date on your progress! _________________ ` I'd say "I care." But I'd be lying.

I ask this because I used to have a tuned R11 that had an adjustable weight attached in a similar position as your laser on the barrel that if adjusted to just the right position would tighten up it's groupings considerably. Have you experimented with it fastened it at different postions on the barrel and if so. Did it make any difference? CW 24" .22 barrel is part # 2260-003   Posted: Mon Mar 03, 2008 10:01 pm BBGun Bob Veteran Member Joined: 29 Oct 2007 Posts: 474 Location: Michigan I got on the Crosman forum. Order goes in tomorrow for my 24" 2260 Barrel.

It should be close to that but crosman changes the prices all the time. Depending on what they have in the parts department the price changes. Shoot thats cheap enough HUH??
