This is what happened to my CB 3240 after the good DoctorFrankengun got thru doing a total valve mod(among other mods) and giving it a nice bulking Co2 job... Now it is shooting .30 cal. 40 gn roundballs at 385 fps (13.23 fpe)... Much nicer...   Posted: Fri Jul 27, 2007 10:13 pm AirGunEric Site Admin Joined: 20 Jan 2007 Posts: 6908 Location: "Out There" Very interesting- but why didn't Crooked Barn do any valve mods as part of the conversion? It only seems that it would make sense going from a .22 to a .30 caliber that leaving the valve alone would result in a "less than ideal" situation.   Posted: Fri Jul 27, 2007 10:57 pm liam995 New Member Joined: 07 Jul 2007 Posts: 2 AirGunEric wrote: Very interesting- but why didn't Crooked Barn do any valve mods as part of the conversion?

No idea, you'd have to ask Jim Giles; he emailed me that only about 35 were ever made by Crooked Barn... http://www.crookedbarn.com/default.htm Crooked Barn 3240 (Modded)     Air Gun Home Forum Index » Picture Gallery You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum All times are GMT - 5 Hours   Page 1 of 1   All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First  Select a forum Main Forums----------------AirGunHome Q&AGeneral Air Gun Questions and TopicsPicture GalleryTarget Shooting: Casual, Fun and CompetitionHunting, Pest Control, Varminting People/Events/Airgun Issue Discussion----------------Introduce YourselfThe BS TopicClubs/Events/Regional/Political Airgun Issues Maintenance, Modification and Reviews----------------RiflesPistolsAntique, Collector and Novelty AirgunsBB GunsPellets/AmmoOpticsAccessoriesAirgun Smithing Buy, Sell or Trade Forums----------------For SaleWant to Buy   Note: If you are seeing "Please enter your username and password to log in."
